ANALYSIS
1. Main Theme, Strategy, and Win Conditions:
This is an Aminatou, the Fateshifter blink/flicker deck that aims to generate value through repeated enter-the-battlefield (ETB) effects. The primary win conditions involve establishing a dominant board state through value generation and potentially infinite combos with cards like Felidar Guardian or Deadeye Navigator.
2. Primer:
This deck revolves around Aminatou's ability to blink permanents, synergizing with a suite of creatures that have powerful ETB effects. The strategy involves setting up a value engine through repeated flicker effects, drawing cards, and controlling the board. Key pieces include Peregrine Drake for mana generation, Felidar Guardian for potential infinite blinks, and value creatures like Mulldrifter and Ravenous Chupacabra. The deck can win through gradual advantage accumulation or by assembling infinite combos. It also includes strong control elements with counterspells and board wipes to keep opponents in check while setting up its engine.
3. Weaknesses:
This deck can be vulnerable to graveyard hate, which disrupts reanimation strategies. It may struggle against faster, more aggressive decks if it can't establish its value engine quickly enough. The reliance on the commander for optimal performance means that repeated removal of Aminatou could significantly hamper the deck's effectiveness.
4. Top 10 Most Impactful Cards:
- Aminatou, the Fateshifter
- Felidar Guardian
- Peregrine Drake
- Deadeye Navigator
- Brago, King Eternal
- Cyclonic Rift
- Rhystic Study
- Sol Ring
- Teferi's Protection
- Sun Titan
5. Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 6/10
- Resilience: 7/10
- Consistency: 7/10
- Interaction: 8/10
6. Final Rating and Justification:
This deck demonstrates a well-tuned strategy with powerful synergies and interaction pieces. It's more resilient and consistent than a typical casual deck, but not quite as fast or optimized as high-power competitive decks. The presence of efficient interaction, strong value engines, and potential infinite combos pushes it above the 6.0 range. However, it lacks the speed and consistency of true cEDH decks, keeping it below the 7.5 threshold. The deck's ability to control the game and generate value over time, combined with its potential for explosive turns, places it solidly in the focused competitive range.
Final power level rating: 7.0 - 7.4
