ANALYSIS

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 ability to exile cards with suspend and Rose Tyler's ability to grow stronger based on time counters. The primary gameplan involves building up suspended spells through the Doctor's attack trigger and using his Timey-Wimey ability to control when these spells resolve.

The deck includes several powerful suspend cards like Wheel of Fate and Ancestral Vision, along with time counter manipulation effects such as Jhoira's Timebug and Clockspinning. The strategy is supported by strong card advantage engines like Rhystic Study and Sensei's Divining Top, while cards like Void Winnower and Sphinx of the Second Sun provide additional win conditions.

Weaknesses:

The deck can be vulnerable to aggressive strategies as it needs time to set up its engine. Heavy graveyard strategies can be problematic as the deck relies more on exile and suspend mechanics. The mana base, while adequate, could benefit from more efficient dual lands. The deck can sometimes struggle if The Tenth Doctor is repeatedly removed, as many of its key plays rely on his ability to generate suspend effects.

Top 10 Most Impactful Cards:

  • The Tenth Doctor
  • Rose Tyler
  • Jhoira of the Ghitu
  • As Foretold
  • Rhystic Study
  • Void Winnower
  • Sphinx of the Second Sun
  • Cyclonic Rift
  • Wheel of Fate
  • Training Grounds

Attribute Ratings:

  • Speed: 5/10
  • Resilience: 6/10
  • Consistency: 7/10
  • Interaction: 6/10

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a higher casual level, with its unique time counter manipulation strategy and solid card advantage engines. While it can generate significant value and has some powerful plays, it typically needs several turns to establish its engine and doesn't typically threaten wins before turn 8-9. It's more powerful than a typical precon due to its synergistic gameplay and inclusion of several powerful cards, but lacks the explosive speed and consistency of higher-powered decks. The interaction suite is respectable but not overwhelming, and the deck can struggle against faster strategies.

Final power level rating: 5.5 - 6.0
