Description
{"ops":[{"insert":"If you think about it hard enough he’s basically Mono Blue Edgar Markov.\n\nProject Tempo is a personal Commander project of mine that started around 2020 where I try to find the perfect EDH deck for my favorite playstyle in Magic (Tempo). I have searched far and wide and looked at many different shells and combinations - the only one that really came close for me was Ishai and Malcolm but that deck lacked the proper defense for a longer game. I am hoping that Namor is able to fully bridge that gap.\n\nNamor is basically the result of casting Polymerization on the 3 threats in Treasure Cruise Delver (my favorite deck): a cheap evasive beater (Delver of Secrets), goes wide with tokens when you cast spells (Young Peezy), goes tall and scales with you casting said spells (Taylor Swiftspear). Only downside is the deck is mono blue so the removal sucks but oh well that’s what you get when the commander is 3 mana and super pushed.\n\nhttps://mtgtop8.com/event?e=8670&d=249540&f=MO\nRatios\n18 Lands - 30%\n12 Threats - 20%\n12 Cantrips (in his podcast he said replace Izzet Charm with 4th Scour) - 20%\n15 Interactive Spells - 25% \n4 Treasure Cruise (Card Advantage) - 6.7% but I think with unlimited slots the deck would have ran as many as 6-8 copies of Treasure Cruise (10%+)\n1 Utility in Snapcaster Mage -> Probably becomes 5th Treasure Cruise\nKeep in mind 7 of these interactive spells are burn spells that also go face so combined with snapcaster technically turn threats into 20/60 - 33% (kinda)\n\nThe curve for this deck is much lower (1.14 cmc compared to 1.76 for Namor) though so 18 lands with 4 probe was correct, possibly even too much land. We should not copy these exact ratios but this gives us a better picture of what to aim for.\n\n\n\n"}]}
