{"ops":[{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Main Gameplan:"},{"insert":"\nThe main gameplan of this deck is to find a combo win as fast as possible. You do this with the typically turbo options, like [[Necropotence]], [[Ad Nauseum]], and sometimes [[Peer Into the Abyss]].

The main thing you want to be doing is to wheel your hand into the graveyard, keeping the tools that can help you combo. Find tutors, [[Flickering hound]] to keep blinking, and general combos. The other part of Celes that can help you win is with any undying creature, and a sac outlet. An undying creature like [[Lesser Masticore]] and [[Murderous Redcap]] will help you get infinite damage, mana, creature removal, mill, counters on all creatures you control, or rarely, infinite lifegain. This mainly depends on what your sac outlet is, them being [[Phyrexian Altar]], [[Evereth, Viceroy of Plunder]], [[Goblin Bombardment]], [[Altar of Dementia]], and [[Viscera Seer]].\n \n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Protection:"},{"insert":"\nThis deck doesn't particularly have that much interaction offensively, most of the interaction in this deck is to protect yourself: [[Silence]], [[Ranger-Captain of Eos]], [[Hexing Squelcher]] and more.

Besides these, the turbo options mentioned in the gameplan section are the big ones.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Wincons/Win lines:"},{"insert":"\nThe main wincons in this deck have to do with reanimation, and combos we can find from mass draw. If you don't win fast enough with these, your best bet is to get a ton of counters on every creature you control through Celes. The main ones are listed below:\n\n[[Underworld Breach]]: The main tool in this deck. There are many lines we can use in here. I think the best thing we can do is either get our two card combo pieces in the yard, or mill the entire deck into the graveyard to basically do whatever we want. The main line in this deck is going to be with [[Stitcher's Supplier]] and one of [[Phyrexian Altar]] or [[Culling the Weak]]. Repeat casting the supplier to mill everything and find a win with protection (hopefully before the combo). The other method to get everything into the yard is a bit more convoluted. We need [[Samut, Hazoret's Champion]] to give our creatures haste [[Smothering Tithe]] for the mana, and [[Magus of the Wheel]]. Cast Magus, tap him, then make the board discard and draw 7. This will give you at least 21 Treasure tokens, from which you can repeat the casting of Magus, and tap him until most of your graveyard is filled, or you get [[Angel's Grace]], from which you can just draw your opponents out.\n\n[[Dualcaster Mage]]: This card has some of the most combos in this deck. The main ones we are looking for are with [[Saw in Half]], [[Twinflame]], [[Electroduplicate]], [[Ephemerate]], and [[Sevinne's Reclamation]]. The way this works, is to cast any of those spells with another target in mind, then cast [[Dualcaster Mage]] holding priority. Target those spells with Dualcaster Mage, and have those spells target the mage itself. This will either trigger another ETB from the mage which can create infinite copies of the mage, blink the mage an infinite number of times, or reanimate the mage to get infinite sac outlet triggers.\n\nCreatures with Persist: [[Murderous Redcap]] and [[Lesser Masticore]], with either [[Celes, Rune Knight]] or [[Thran Vigil]]. This combo is mentioned above, but here's a bit more information: Once the creature is sacrificed, it will re-enter with a -1/-1 counter on it. Celes and Thran Vigil will give them a +1/+1 counter, cancelling them out. This lets you repeat the Persist recursion as many times as you want.\n\n[[Impact Tremors]]/[[Marionette Apprentice]]: With this, every ETB/LTB from a persist creature or [[Dualcaster Mage]] will ping the board for 1 damage. This wins the game very easily.\n\n[[Torment of Hailfire]]: The earlier mentioned wheel combo can net you a ton of Mana. Not infinite, but it should be enough to dump all your Mana into the spell and cause your opponents to lose. With the infinite Mana from [[Phyrexian Altar]] and a persist creature, you can just dump a super big number into X and win that way too.\n\n[[Orcish Bowmasters]] and [[Peer into the Abyss]]: With [[Underworld Breach]], you can cast Peer to have each player draw half of their deck. [[Orcish Bowmasters]] will ping them down. This isn't super reliable, so don't rely on it.\n\n[[Hoarding Broodlord]]: The main way to cast this is with [[Entomb]] and [[Reanimate]]. If doing this, you can't grab them with broodlord itself. With the first ETB, find [[Saw in Half]] and cast it on broodlord. This will make 2 more ETBs, letting you find any 2 cards. Typically something with [[Dualcaster Mage]] or [[Chance for Glory]] for another turn and hopefully win off some combo.\n\n[[Gleaming Splendor]]: With the [[Phyrexian Altar]] infinite mana combo, you can draw out your opponents with this card.\n"}]}

Description

{"ops":[{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Main Gameplan:"},{"insert":"\nThe main gameplan of this deck is to find a combo win as fast as possible. You do this with the typically turbo options, like [[Necropotence]], [[Ad Nauseum]], and sometimes [[Peer Into the Abyss]]. Once you have pieces for a win, rush for the win (don't forget keep protection as well!).\n\n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Things to do with the Commander, Celes:"},{"insert":"\n[[Celes, Rune Knight]]'s main use case besides is twofold. The main thing you want to be doing is to wheel your hand into the graveyard, keeping the tools that can help you combo. Find tutors, [[Flickering hound]] to keep blinking, and general combos. The other part of Celes that can help you win is with any undying creature, and a sac outlet. An undying creature like [[Lesser Masticore]] and [[Murderous Redcap]] will help you get infinite damage, mana, creature removal, mill, counters on all creatures you control, or rarely, infinite lifegain. This mainly depends on what your sac outlet is, them being [[Phyrexian Altar]], [[Evereth, Viceroy of Plunder]], [[Goblin Bombardment]], [[Altar of Dementia]], and [[Viscera Seer]].\n \n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Protection:"},{"insert":"\nThis deck doesn't particularly have that much interaction offensively, most of the interaction in this deck is to protect yourself: [[Silence]], [[Ranger-Captain of Eos]], [[Hexing Squelcher]] and more. Cast these, combo, then win!\n\n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Draw:"},{"insert":"\nThe main draw engines are going Celes herself, [[Esper Sentinel]], [[The Queen of Dale]], and [[Black Widow, Agile Avenger]]. Besides these, the turbo options mentioned in the gameplan section are the big ones.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"underline":true,"bold":true},"insert":"Wincons/Win lines:"},{"insert":"\nThe main wincons in this deck have to do with reanimation, and combos we can find from mass draw. If you don't win fast enough with these, your best bet is to get a ton of counters on every creature you control through Celes. The main ones are listed below:\n\n[[Underworld Breach]]: The main tool in this deck. There are many lines we can use in here. I think the best thing we can do is either get our two card combo pieces in the yard, or mill the entire deck into the graveyard to basically do whatever we want. The main line in this deck is going to be with [[Stitcher's Supplier]] and one of [[Phyrexian Altar]] or [[Culling the Weak]]. Repeat casting the supplier to mill everything and find a win with protection (hopefully before the combo). The other method to get everything into the yard is a bit more convoluted. We need [[Samut, Hazoret's Champion]] to give our creatures haste [[Smothering Tithe]] for the mana, and [[Magus of the Wheel]]. Cast Magus, tap him, then make the board discard and draw 7. This will give you at least 21 Treasure tokens, from which you can repeat the casting of Magus, and tap him until most of your graveyard is filled, or you get [[Angel's Grace]], from which you can just draw your opponents out.\n\n[[Dualcaster Mage]]: This card has some of the most combos in this deck. The main ones we are looking for are with [[Saw in Half]], [[Twinflame]], [[Electroduplicate]], [[Ephemerate]], and [[Sevinne's Reclamation]]. The way this works, is to cast any of those spells with another target in mind, then cast [[Dualcaster Mage]] holding priority. Target those spells with Dualcaster Mage, and have those spells target the mage itself. This will either trigger another ETB from the mage which can create infinite copies of the mage, blink the mage an infinite number of times, or reanimate the mage to get infinite sac outlet triggers.\n\nCreatures with Persist: [[Murderous Redcap]] and [[Lesser Masticore]], with either [[Celes, Rune Knight]] or [[Thran Vigil]]. This combo is mentioned above, but here's a bit more information: Once the creature is sacrificed, it will re-enter with a -1/-1 counter on it. Celes and Thran Vigil will give them a +1/+1 counter, cancelling them out. This lets you repeat the Persist recursion as many times as you want.\n\n[[Impact Tremors]]/[[Marionette Apprentice]]: With this, every ETB/LTB from a persist creature or [[Dualcaster Mage]] will ping the board for 1 damage. This wins the game very easily.\n\n[[Torment of Hailfire]]: The earlier mentioned wheel combo can net you a ton of Mana. Not infinite, but it should be enough to dump all your Mana into the spell and cause your opponents to lose. With the infinite Mana from [[Phyrexian Altar]] and a persist creature, you can just dump a super big number into X and win that way too.\n\n[[Orcish Bowmasters]] and [[Peer into the Abyss]]: With [[Underworld Breach]], you can cast Peer to have each player draw half of their deck. [[Orcish Bowmasters]] will ping them down. This isn't super reliable, so don't rely on it.\n\n[[Hoarding Broodlord]]: The main way to cast this is with [[Entomb]] and [[Reanimate]]. If doing this, you can't grab them with broodlord itself. With the first ETB, find [[Saw in Half]] and cast it on broodlord. This will make 2 more ETBs, letting you find any 2 cards. Typically something with [[Dualcaster Mage]] or [[Chance for Glory]] for another turn and hopefully win off some combo.\n\n[[Gleaming Splendor]]: With the [[Phyrexian Altar]] infinite mana combo, you can draw out your opponents with this card.\n"}]}
