Overview:
A unique Jeskai suspend/time counter deck helmed by The Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler, focusing on manipulating time counters and leveraging suspended spells for value and control.
Primer:
This deck operates on a fascinating time counter manipulation strategy, using The Tenth Doctor's attack trigger to generate suspended spells and his activated ability to manipulate time counters. Rose Tyler serves as both a growing threat and a time counter multiplier, creating a snowball effect as more cards become suspended. The deck includes several powerful suspend cards like Ancestral Vision and Wheel of Fate that can be accelerated or delayed as needed.
The strategy revolves around building up suspended spells and controlling their timing through various counter manipulation effects. Cards like Jhoira's Timebug and Time Beetle allow for precise control over when suspended spells resolve, while value engines like Passionate Archaeologist and Rhystic Study help maintain card advantage. The deck can win through combat damage with growing creatures or through value accumulation and control elements.
Weaknesses:
The deck is relatively slow to get started and heavily relies on its commanders to function optimally. Aggressive decks can put pressure on before the suspend strategy comes online. The deck is also vulnerable to graveyard hate and can struggle against heavy counterspell strategies that prevent key pieces from resolving.

- Resilience: 6/10
- Consistency: 7/10
- Interaction: 6/10
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a focused casual power level, with its unique time counter strategy requiring setup time but offering good consistency once established. While it includes some powerful cards like Rhystic Study and Cyclonic Rift, the suspend-based strategy inherently prevents it from being too explosive. It's stronger than typical precon decks due to its synergistic build and interaction suite, but slower than highly optimized decks that can win earlier. The deck's ability to control the timing of its spells and generate value over time places it firmly in the middle ranges of the power scale.
Final power level rating: 5.0 - 5.5
