Description

{"ops":[{"insert":" Simic graveyard/exile value deck that uses Doc to turn normally clunky second-use spells into cheap resources, then suddenly pivots into creature combat. The important part being Plot is no longer the entire gimmick. Plot, flashback, jump-start, retrace, Adventures, self-mill, and recursion are now all different doors into the same room.\n\nThe deck’s engine cards I’d protect most aggressively are Doc, Intuition, Bilbo, Lier, Quiet Speculation, and whichever payoff is currently driving your board. Intuition in particular has become the deck’s signature card: it searches any three, puts one in hand and two in the graveyard, which is normally a restriction but here is often exactly where you wanted two of them anyway. Quiet Speculation is the smaller version of that idea—it directly stocks three flashback cards.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Overwhelming Stampede is still Plan A."},{"insert":" Brawn and Wonder sitting in the graveyard give your whole creature board trample and flying respectively, so your otherwise random-looking collection of Elephants, Wurms, Birds, Frogs, plotted creatures and value creatures becomes a legitimate evasive army. Stampede then turns one large creature into lethal scaling for everything.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Railway Brawler is Plan B that often becomes Plan A accidentally."},{"insert":" Every subsequent creature enters and receives +1/+1 counters equal to its power. So a Roar of the Wurm 6/6 becomes a 12/12 immediately, and clone effects make the math increasingly ridiculous. Your current copy package still includes Cackling Counterpart, Croaking Counterpart, Quasiduplicate, Spitting Image and Visage Bandit, while Brawler itself has Plot. \n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Ominous Roost gives you the slow, resilient kill."},{"insert":" Every graveyard spell becomes another flying Bird. Call of the Herd and Roar of the Wurm also turn graveyard cards into bodies, and Outlaw Stitcher can generate a very large token after you've chained spells. That means you don't have to draw Stampede immediately—you can just accumulate an increasingly awkward aerial/token board until someone has to answer you. \n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Jace Reawakened is the explosive alternate finisher."},{"insert":" His −6 copies every spell you cast for the turn. If you reach that ultimate with Stampede, token production, draw spells or your clone spells available, the turn can get out of hand extremely quickly. \n\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"And your best Intuition piles now deserve to be thought of almost like a little toolbox:"},{"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Setup:"},{"insert":" Wonder / Brawn / Quasiduplicate when Quasi isn't already in hand."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Setup with Quasi already in hand:"},{"insert":" Wonder / Brawn / Plunder—or Frantic Search when Lier is available."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Kill setup:"},{"insert":" Stampede / Mass Diminish / Roar of the Wurm or Vengeful Regrowth. Mass Diminish turns one opponent’s board into 1/1s through your next turn, while Roar gives you a 6/6 to establish Stampede's X. "},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"attributes":{"bold":true},"insert":"Recovery:"},{"insert":" Bala Ged Recovery now gives you a low-opportunity-cost way to retrieve literally any important card that ended up in the wrong zone"},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\n\n\n\n"}]}
