This deck also runs low cost kill spells to cycle through on combo turns, destroying the entire board and creating something unstoppable really fast against precons isn't cool.

With the amount of mulligans you should be forcing a fast hang with enough lands. This deck hates tap lands, I'm mainly running reveal, check, and slow lands out of budget necessity and if they are in your opening hand you need to be thinking of how to get them into play untapped, if you don't play a 1 drop on turn 1 you will likely slow your flubs turn down by an entire turn. However fetches and shocks would 100% improve this deck and if it's in your budget I would go for it. Boseiju is 100% not necessary. I opened 2 copies of it in a pitty prize pack for getting last place in a draft."},{"insert":"\n\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent","bold":true},"insert":"MULLIGAN MATH"},{"insert":"\n\nDoing some calculations on mulligans if we are calculating the odds of 3 lands and at least 1 piece of turn 1 ramp we get 24% chance of both on 1st hand, 42% on 1st mulligan, 56% on 2nd mulligan, and 67% by the 3rd mulligan. \n\nIf we factor for 1 piece of any ramp -counting signets, natures lore effects but not extra land cards except exploration- and 3 lands, we get 42% chance for 1st hand, 66% for 1st mulligan, 81% for second mulligan, and 89% for 3rd mulligan. And 93% if we mulligan 4 times\n\nIf we are looking for 2 pieces of ramp- excluding all extra land cards except exploration- and 3 lands the odds are 12% for 1st hand, 23% for first mulligan, 32% for second mulligan, and 40% for 3rd mulligan.\n\nand now finally factoring in extra land cards, looking for 2 pieces and 3 lands we get 28% for first hand, 48% for first mulligan, 62% for second mulligan, and 73% for 3rd mulligan. The average mulligan for this hand is 2, and this hand would likely be very playable. Not exactly a fast hand but definitely playable.\n\nIf we factor for a chance to have any immediately playable 1 cost or zero cost card, 2 pieces of any ramp, and 3 lands we get, 9% on first hand, 19% on first mulligan and 25% on second mulligan. This is quiet literally the most ideal hand to be in. And having a 9% chance to have a near perfect hand is pretty good odds, especially considering the above calculation where we are considering purely ramp. \n\nGenerally this deck achieves its best results the harder you mulligan. After 2 or 3 mulligans the odds to have a pretty good hand is in your favor. After 2 mulligans having a 25% chance for a very fast and high quality hand is pretty good. Now these are not the exact odds of how good these hands are, there are many things not being taken into consideration like land colors but generally we have a good chance for our cards to be playable because our mana base is solid.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Salubrious Snail"},{"insert":" "},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Manabase Calculator"},{"insert":":\nI tried to optimize the colors of this deck using this tool and it helped a lot.

Our commander has a cast rate of 87.3 and an average delay rate of 0.446\n\nGenerally speaking for what the budget of the deck is, this is pretty good and the majority of delay will because of tap lands unfortunately. But for any deck being able to get it to such a good point is pretty good and very helpful.\n\nI removed these cards from the calc: Crackle with Power, Mina and Denn, Wildborn, Displacer Kitten, and Oracle of Mul Daya. I'm not casting these cards in the first 3 turns so I removed them from the calc.

The dorks can't tap right away, and you will be a target so your dorks will die and just be mana lost. Tinder Wall is the closest we have to a mana dork, refunds immediately and has synergy with Birgi. I considered Wild Cantor but decided against it because the free cycle on flubs or playing on one doesn't feel as consistent as having a mana rock in hand or on board. It is a mildly less powerful version of Tinder wall but needs the synergy to be particularly impactful. Its high roll potential isn't high enough to consider it over a mana rock that furthers the board state. It's a good card but with the way I want this deck to feel it doesn't offer enough. All of our 1 cost ramp is enchantments mainly and you won't always get to play exactly ramp on 1."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Lotus Petal? This one was a hard decision. But I think mainly It gives the underworld breach far too much otk potential. I talk more about my thoughts on breach in this deck below but I'll quickly summarize Lotus Petals' role in that. Lotus petal creates a really easy near infinite combo, as well as being fast mana pushing this deck overall power level much higher. Lotus petal isn't as strong as soul ring, but it creates a near cedh level combo that is extremely flexible. A card like Tinder wall requires green mana to get red mana, and then I need to mill extra to continue the chain. Lotus petal streamlines this and allows for a near instant win with brain freeze and breach. I have only used the tinderwall-breach-grapeshot line a handful of times -countable on my fingers. It's just too inflexible to be consistent. Lotus petal makes that specific line consistent as well as a much stronger line of Petal-Breach-Brain Freeze. I'm still on the fence about it, and if I get a lotus petal for extremely cheap I'll reconsider, but for now I'm happy with this deck's position as is."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"What I do run and why"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Crackle With Power: This is one of the decks main finishers, but why? Well mainly this deck is trying to be bellow low CEDH power level and is actively trying to avoid infinite combos. We need a way to finish the game that feels vaguely \"fair\" and without being overtly broken. You could run Thassa's Oracle and change a few cards in the deck to consistently just power draw through the whole deck. But that's why we banned Nadu. It's a kneecapped finisher that is most importantly pretty fun. Completely tapping out with no cards in hand and presenting a nuke can be very silly especially when someone counterspells it or otherwise interacts with it. The reason I chose it over cards like Comet storm or Jaya's Inferno is mainly because of how the damage of the card scales. Yeah those cards are stronger when you are paying lower amounts of mana. But we are trying to high roll here we are paying all of the mana the second we have the change. Those cards would also feel bad to play on low mana costs so might as well aim high. crackle fits into this interesting goal that the deck had, and warps it play patterns into being less oppressive, and a tangible non-infinite damage based win condition."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Mystical Tutor: This card initially was run mainly with the reasoning that it can get crackle. However, after I played with it, more often than not it went for the best spell at that moment, usually snap, noxious revival, nature's claim, or summer bloom. Very rarely did I go for crackle. I tried to stay tutor light in this deck with a very narrow exception here -and also crop rotation but I cover that later. But this tutor genuinely feels very toolboxy when I play it and leads to more interesting decisions other than fetching my wincon. I think this mainly happened becue the draw is top decking. I don't get to choose when I tutor so it needs to be the best and most playable card at that moment. I have definitely fetched up Crackle just to hold it and pass, but I would say I do that less than 25% of the time."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Underworld Breach, Brain freeze, and Grape shot: This is the win condition that has a lot of people raising eyebrows about the power of this deck. However the only real way to abuse this card heavily is through cards like Birgi and displacer. Generally this card is used to deal a lot of damage to the table with grapeshot or reuse removal cards or try and high roll with a brain freeze line. We normally win by mixing both of the win conditions together for damage. However the only way for us to generate mana off of it is Tinder wall, which is restricted to red and you have to pay green for it. So we can't create mana for brainfreze mill, do it over and have a near infinite resource. We have to commit mana unless we have a critical mass of mana cheat, which makes this very frail and glass cannon win condition. We in a sense have a hard cap on damage and cannot do infinite damage, however we can do a lot a lot of damage in one turn and if we have our mana cheat will deal enough or nearly enough. It's important to note because if someone has near infinite health we can't win except with brain freeze. I haven't been able to find another way to make this feel more fair, but its probably the only way to end the game in a timely manner when we are just that far ahead. If it's turn 7-10 and we are in a late part of the game for fast decks nobody wants to watch us twiddle our thumbs and draw through the entire deck, so we need a way to reuse resources to end the game. Do some people not like underworld breach? Yes. This deck should not be played in a game where someone feels this is entirely unfair and cedh. I tell people that I have breach lines before we play almost every time and it gives people a better sense of what the deck is and does."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"extra land cards: We run so so many extra land cards. The main reason is that we don't want to draw too many lands to where we cant keep playing flubs turns. I don't want to list each individually because the reasoning is the same for each. However I will explain a few that aren't in here that will give you an idea of the underlying logic for which got to stay. Azusa's many journeys was considered, but it didn't really have the mana efficiency and felt like the backside just didn't matter. Case of the locked house was far too expensive and would end turns if drawn too early. I was originally running enter the unknown but decided to cut it, because if you hit a land on a flubs turn you would have two lands in hand. Explore draws an extra card which causes our turn to end, same thing with Growth Spiral. These cards feel as though they should work but are just slightly off. A few choices that may puzzle a small bit are Kellan, Mina and Oracle of mul daya. These cards are expensive for this deck's cmc, but the utility they offer makes it worth it. Oracle and Kellan can help you get out of a bind and keep your turn going (only play Kellan as a sorcery for extra land and investigate). Mina giving trample witch matters a lot, especially with the equipment and can apply some strong mid game threat."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Diviner's Wand and Blackblade Reforged: These cards are in here mostly to give us something to do in mid game other than just drawing and interacting. It allows us to push a little bit of damage and can give us an alternate wincon of commander damage. Diviner's wand is kind of weak in reality, however for the playstyle I was attempting to go for with this deck it really fits. It allows us to directly translate our draws into a board presence. And the extra bit of flying does offset the slowness a small bit, the main problem with blackblade is we just get chumped unless we have Rograhk. These cards are present more or less because they have strong synergies with the deck but aren't super super powerful. It's a sign post for what the style of deck is rather than something to use to make it super powerful."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"cheerios: I'm not running as many 0 cost cards as someone would expect, an overabundance of 0 cost cards felt like it really streamlined the deckbuilding process and reduced the deck towards its CEDH counterpart. I chose the ones that I believed were impactful or helped with the general game plan. Gitaxian probe is also a bait card. You would think it would be good but it has anti synergy with flubs. Tormod's crypt is definitely the MVP of the cheerios. I have cracked Tormod's crypt in every game I've played. Just let it sit there until someone tries to interact with the graveyard and if it's threatening enough exile their graveyard. If you play Tormod's and crack it instantly then you just flubbed yourself."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Goblin arachnomancer: This card is one of the cards that is a little bit harder to justify but for what it does it really does it well. He makes our extra land cards cheaper and the manna cheat. Realistically he only discounts those cards. However those cards are so high costed that they can sometimes cause our turn to end with their cost alone. The cards that he does make more flexible are so important that he feels extremely valuable on the field but difficult to play or keep in mulligan. It's a really interesting card that can lead to some interesting choices during mulligan or discarding."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"scute swarm: Scute swarm is in a similar position to field of the dead, however it's not free and is kind of expensive for this deck. However it has a way higher high roll potential than field of the dead. Scute is definitely the worst payoff in the deck because it takes effort to get online. But when it does get online it can do some crazy stuff on its own. I don't run stuff to really take advantage but it's definitely possible to summon several hundred scute's in a round. I just don't think there is room in this deck for anything to take advantage of the wide boards it creates, however running it as a payoff itself is decently good and provides an extra way to threaten opponents at a okay deck building and gameplay cost. It also fits into the vision I had for the deck."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"Field Of the Dead: I think the main thing about Field is why not? Its way overturned already and is absolutely nutty in flubs. If it gets out early on turn 3-4 or during the flubs turn the deck has an instant board presence.

We run it for the same reason it was banned in modern haha."},{"attributes":{"list":"ordered"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"background":"transparent"},"insert":"crop rotation: Crop rotation exists mainly as a landfall synergy but also as a field of the dead tutor.

They aren't costed particularly high as opposed to something that could be cast at instant speed so I don't feel that it takes away from the deck much to use. It is also really funny when you play them and your opponents go \"huh?\".

Soul Guide Lantern is a happy little in between case of mind stone and Tormod's crypt and is very useful. Mindstone is the best of these cards filling in for ramp and draw effect, the draw from it is more often its alternate use case rather than primary.

Or recast breach and get the upsides of both cards to finish out the game. Six is useful at really every part of the game and can be by far the strongest storm extender.
