The ramp player is building toward one big turn. The spellslinger is chaining triggers into a kill. The tribal deck is quietly assembling an army. This deck doesn't have its own story.\n\nIt has better taste.\n\nKraum and Sakashima don't sit down at the table to write the best chapter. They sit down to read everyone else's, decide which one is the most interesting, and steal it in the third act. This is a Copy Everything deck. It doesn't care how the game gets exciting — it only cares that when it does, it gets to have some too.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"italic":true},"insert":"Use the table as the win condition. Copy whatever is most breakable."},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"The Two Faces"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Kraum, Ludevic's Opus"},{"insert":" is the deck's steady hand and its opening line. He's not flashy — an evasive 4/4 that draws a card whenever an opponent casts their second spell in a turn. But steady hands win a lot of games. Cast him early, and every spell-slinging opponent at the table starts quietly filling your hand for you. He is also, conveniently, always the best thing to copy when nothing better is on offer — which solves the oldest problem in clone-deck history: what do I clone when the board is empty?\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Sakashima of a Thousand Faces"},{"insert":" is the twist. He doesn't want to be himself — he wants to be whatever's already winning. Point him at Kraum and the card advantage doubles. Point him at someone else's bomb and you've stolen their turn. And because Sakashima erases the legend rule for whatever he copies, he lets you stack up Kraums, or your own cloned legendary creatures, without ever sacrificing anything to the rulebook.\n\nThe default opening: cast Kraum, cast Sakashima copying Kraum, and let the table's own spells start doing your drawing for you. That's the floor. Everything after that is improvisation.\n"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Three Floors, One Ceiling"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"The floor"},{"insert":" is Kraum doing Kraum things — stacking evasive card-draw engines and grinding the table out through sheer inevitability.

Given the right turn, this deck can copy the best creature, the best spell, the best artifact, the best land, or the most important trigger on the stack — and it decides which, in real time, based on what the table hands it. It is a high-agency, high-skill-ceiling deck. It does not win the same way twice, and that's the entire point.\n\nHow the Story Unfolds"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"header":3},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Act One: The Setup"},{"attributes":{"header":3},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nEarly turns are about patience, not power.

Get Kraum down as early as reasonably possible. He doesn't need protection to be good; he just needs to survive long enough for the table to start casting spells near him.\n\nThis is not the act where Sakashima shows up.

Sometimes it's stealing an opponent's finisher with Clever Impersonator or Phyrexian Metamorph. Sometimes it's matching an artifact-heavy board with Copy Artifact or Mirrormade, or answering an enchantress deck with the same tools turned sideways. Sometimes it's quietly building the land engine — Thespian's Stage copying Lotus Field, untapped again by Deserted Temple — because nobody's given you anything better to chase yet.\n\nThe deck doesn't force its hand here. It watches, and it waits for the moment the table hands it the better option.\n"},{"attributes":{"header":3},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Act Three: The Heist"},{"attributes":{"header":3},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nEvery good heist story has the turn where everything comes together.
