Description
{"ops":[{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"This description is the primer for the original deck and subsequent updates for any development made to this list. Take everything with a grain of salt and don't try playing mono blue at home. And drink your milk and stay in school. "},{"insert":"\n\nIn the real world I work at a library on the side of being a student to suport my addiction to cardboard, and when the two Wan Shi Tongs were spoiled I knew I wanted to make a deck with one of them. Well... library pay isn't great and "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Wan Shi Tong, Librarian"}},{"insert":" turned out to be a $30 cEDH staple but that's okay I was brewing this one first. It's unfortunate that I can't trigger the All-Knowing off of scrying or surveiling, *cough cough* "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Planetarium of Wan Shi Tong"}},{"insert":", but there's plenty of effects that manipulate libraries besides that. \n\nThere's lot's to do here besides making too many unblockable spirits and casting one of the two anthems in the deck, a favorite card of mine from a favorite set of mine, "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Moonlit Meditation"}},{"insert":", works wonders with most cards in the deck, being able to make 2 copies per turn off of any All-Knowing trigger. My favorite interaction that I had to include is with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Scrawling Crawler"}},{"insert":", dealing exponentially more damage per copy every time it triggers on my upkeep, but there's a number of other artifacts and creatures that benefit from there being two more of them per turn.

I would like to think this deck sits at a nice bracket 3, but there is one 2-card combo that I included without any way to tutor for either of the pieces, just in case a game may happen to run on too long. Overall the deck is very redundant and I'd like to make the gameplay less time consuming and progress my boardstate more than drawing my library. and finding straight ass in my hand. \n\nWith 100% certainty I say that this deck replicates the experience of working in a library and now your 3 closest enemies can experience this lifestyle too!
