Overview:

This deck is a high-powered Sultai combo list leveraging The Mimeoplasm as a flexible value engine/alternate wincon while focusing primarily on deterministic Hermit Druid and Thassa's Oracle/Demonic Consultation lines. It achieves cEDH-tier speed through optimized fast mana, 14 tutors, and free interaction while maintaining multiple protected win paths.

Primer:

Core Strategy:

1. Fast Mana Setup: Deploy 0-1 mana artifacts (Mox Diamond, Chrome Mox) to enable T1-T2 Hermit Druid activations or Ad Nauseam draws. The 28-land base with 10 fetches ensures consistent access to all colors.
2. Primary Wincons:
   • Hermit Druid mills entire library (no basics), recurring Narcomoeba/Dread Return to flashback Dread Return targeting Thassa's Oracle
   • Demonic Consultation/Tainted Pact naming absent card + Thassa's Oracle
   • Ad Nauseam into Necropotence-style draw to assemble combos
3. Backup Plans:
   • Mimeoplasm copying Laboratory Maniac/Thassa's Oracle from exile
   • Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal with sufficient rocks

Mulligan Priorities:

• Keep hands with 2+ mana sources (including 0-cost artifacts)
• Prioritize T1-T2 Hermit Druid, Demonic Tutor, or Ad Nauseam enablers
• Reject hands without fast mana or tutors

Key Tips:

• Sequence fetches early to enable Mox Diamond/Chrome Mox
• Use Hermit Druid as primary wincon unless facing grave hate
• Force of Will/Pact of Negation to protect combo turns
• Noxious Revival to recur key pieces from any grave

Avoid Traps:

• Don't cast Mimeoplasm unless necessary
• Don't reveal combo lines prematurely
• Avoid overextending into Opposition Agent

Weaknesses:

Critical:

• Fold to early Opposition Agent/Dauthi Voidwalker
• Rest in Peace/Leyline of the Void shuts off Hermit Druid line

Moderate:

• Vulnerable to Cursed Totem-effects disabling Druid
• Limited basic lands make Blood Moon problematic

Minor:

• High life loss from Ad Nauseam risky in aggressive metas

Most Important Cards:

• Hermit Druid
• Thassa's Oracle
• Demonic Consultation
• Ad Nauseam
• Mox Diamond
• Chrome Mox
• Force of Will
• Demonic Tutor
• Vampiric Tutor
• Imperial Seal

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 10/10
Theoretical T1 win (T1 Druid + activation + reanimation), consistent T2-T3 wins with protection. Fastest possible in EDH.

Resilience: 9/10
12 free interaction spells (4x Force effects, 3x Pact, 5x 1-cmc counters) protect combos. Multiple redundant wincons.

Consistency: 10/10
14 tutors (including Demonic Consultation as pseudo-tutor) plus 10+ draw engines. 100% deterministic wincons.

Interaction: 9/10
S-tier counterspells (Force of Will, Fierce Guardianship) and targeted removal (Boseiju). Lacks boardwipes but irrelevant to primary strategy.

Rating Justification:

This deck exceeds Turn 3 benchmarks of 9.5-tier cEDH lists through:
1) T1-T2 goldfish capability matching Godo, Bandit Warlord/Rograkh decks
2) Better interaction suite than typical T1.5 cEDH lists
3) Complete redundancy in wincons and tutors
It lacks only the absolute fastest T0 wins (e.g., Flash-era decks) keeping it just below Tier 0.

Power level: 9.5 - 10.0
