Overview:
This Jeskai (U/R/W) deck combines convoke synergies, token generation, and untap mechanics to exploit Saint Traft and Rem Karolus’s triggered abilities. The core strategy revolves around tapping the commander 3+ times per turn to create escalating tokens (Human > Spirit > Angel), enabled by convoke spells to reset it. Secondary win conditions include Thassa’s Oracle devotion checks, Intruder Alarm infinite creature loops, and Impact Tremors/Throne of the God-Pharaoh burn. The deck leans on artifact/enchantment tutors (Tezzeret the Seeker, Enlightened Tutor) and token doublers (Mondrak) for consistency but lacks cEDH-level speed or resilience.
Primer:
Core Strategy:
- Early Setup: Ramp with artifacts (Sol Ring, Fellwar Stone) and deploy token generators (Prosperous Partnership, Staff of the Storyteller).
- Midgame Synergy: Cast convoke spells (Knight-Errant of Eos, Zephyr Singer) to untap the commander, triggering its token scaling. Use Intruder Alarm to chain untaps from token generation.
- Win Conditions:
- Token Overload: Generate 10+ creatures via Mondrak/Throne of the God-Pharaoh for combat or burn.
- Infinite Combos: Intruder Alarm + Stonybrook Schoolmaster (tap to create Merfolk, untap all via Alarm, repeat).
- Thassa’s Oracle: Draw through Alhammarret’s Archive/Curiosity Crafter to deck out or hit U devotion via tokens + Reality Chip.
Mulligan Priorities:
- Keep hands with 3 lands, 1–2 ramp artifacts, and a token generator (e.g., Prosperous Partnership) or convoke enabler (Wand of the Worldsoul).
- Avoid hands without early token/untap synergy (e.g., all counterspells + high-cost creatures).
Key Tips:
- Untap Sequencing: Prioritize casting convoke spells post-combat to maximize Saint Traft’s triggers.
- Protect Critical Enablers: Use Reprieve/Arcane Denial to shield Intruder Alarm or Mondrak.
- Oracle Backup: Use Bennie Bracks/Throne of the God-Pharaoh to drain opponents if Thassa’s Oracle is exiled.
Avoid Traps:
- Overextending tokens into board wipes without Teferi’s Protection.
- Holding convoke spells when facing counter-heavy opponents.
Weaknesses:
- Critical:
- Relies on commander for token scaling (dies to 3+ removals).
- Intruder Alarm combo lacks redundancy (only 1 copy).
- Moderate:
- Limited graveyard recursion for key pieces.
- Weak to artifact/enchantment hate (Collector Ouphe, Austere Command).
- Minor:
- Slow vs. fast combo decks (minimal free interaction).
Most Important Cards:
- Intruder Alarm
- Mondrak, Glory Dominus
- Smothering Tithe
- Tezzeret the Seeker
- Thassa's Oracle
- Impact Tremors
- Alhammarret’s Archive
- Opposition
- Stonybrook Schoolmaster
- Freed from the Real
Attribute Ratings:
Speed: 6/10
- Can assemble T5–6 infinite tokens via Intruder Alarm + Schoolmaster or T7–8 Thassa’s Oracle. Lacks fast mana (no Mana Crypt) or T3–4 wins.
Resilience: 5/10
- Vulnerable to commander removal and enchantment hate. Moderate protection (5 counterspells, Teferi’s Protection).
Consistency: 6/10
- 4 tutors (Enlightened Tutor, Tezzeret, Muddle the Mixture, Knight-Errant) for key combo pieces. Token generators provide redundancy.
Interaction: 5/10
- 8 targeted removals (Swords, Pongify) and 4 counterspells (Arcane Denial, An Offer You Can’t Refuse). Lacks free interaction (Force of Will/Negation).
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at Optimized Casual (5.0–5.5) due to:
- Speed: Wins T5–8 via combat/burn, slower than cEDH’s T3–4 benchmarks.
- Resilience: Struggles against heavy interaction but can rebuild with token generators.
- Meta Fit: Outpaces precons but folds to fast stax or combo.
Power level: 5.0–5.5
