Back to the 3rd version of this Esper Deck. Re-trying out Bad Sphinx Man Lemmie know thoughts, would be greatly appreciated. Would love any + all feedback!

Alright, on to my regular writings:

“Hey Jimmy…do they Rock or Suck?” “They…have not started playing yet.” “That was a Test Jimmy…You passed!” Put your hands together for: ¡¡¡Prodigal Son!!!

Alright enough of that, "Esper Lounge Presents : Prodigal Son" is my Ship of Thesius. I’ve experimented with Mono Black as my starter EDH deck when I came back to MtG & Azorius has been a good fit when it came to being on the same field with CEDH players and their above Level 9 decks (yay power level discussions and such for Rule 0). This would be my third time back using Tivit, Seller of Secrets, lets see if I learned anything.

“Alright, this next song goes out to the guy yelling at us from the Balcony. It’s called ‘We hate you, Please DIE!’!” “Woo!” Board State:

- “Double-Up Delney” :(Needs these cards) Delney, Streetwise Lookout End Goal: Delney is a newcomer to the scene. She is a powerhouse tho! Most creatures in this deck are applicable for the Double-Up Delney is known for.

- “Time..Moves…Slow…” :(Needs these cards) Teferi's Puzzle Box, Archivist of Oghma, Dauthi Voidwalker, Grand Abolisher, Lotho, Corrupt Shirriff, Lavinia, Azorius Renegade, Talion, the Kindly Lord, Dress Down & Teferi, Time Raveler. End Goal: Everyone is such a QuickShot these days, wanting to end the game by turn 2 or 3. Add these delightful Semi-Stax Pieces for those Opponents who like to: -search their Decks. -Draw. Or other annoying things while the stage gets set for the Main Act..

- “Diva’s take the Room” :(Needs these cards) Sen Triplets with Phantasmal Image, Phyrexian Metamorph, Sakashima of a Thousand Faces & Sakashima the Impostor. End Goal: Must set the stage for the Main Event! Having Sen Trip out with the Duplicators to lock out all Opponents for the real Show to start!!.

- “The Rocky Horror Special: Let’s do the Time Warp AGAIN!!!” :(Needs these cards) Tivit, Seller of Secrets using Time Sieve. End Goal: Who better to open for an Esper Horror then the new guy on the block. Tivit is here to farm the Opps for either Treasures or Clues. You already know which is the favorite Artifact of his Time Sieve was added to the 99!! Bonus points if you can use Sakashima the Impostor to steal the Opps’ Tivit for your own shenanigans!!

“This song is called ‘Last Song Kills Audience!’ It’ll be our last song tonight. And your last song ever!!” “Aww!” End Game:

- “Smooth, the Operator” :(Needs these cards) Blighted Agent utilizing Delney, Streetwise Lookout as Doubler. End Goal: Delney has been out since the start, let's get the party going with some I N F E C T!! Aside from the Blighted Agent’s regular evasion, Delney doubles his Infect Trigger like a Mono-W Finn the Fangebearer!

- “Apocalypse N A O” :(Needs these cards) Sheoldred, the Apocalypse using Teferi's Puzzle Box with Phantasmal Image, Phyrexian Metamorph, Sakashima the Impostor & Sakashima of a Thousand Faces as Copiers. End Goal: Drain the Opps for each Card Drawn, no matter what. Using P. Morph, PhImage, Saka & ‘Shima out Quadrupling Apocalypse’s triggers. Delightful!!

- “Friends in L O W places” :(Needs these cards) Thassa's Oracle + Laboratory Maniac using: Demonic Consultation &/or Tainted Pact. End Goal: You know the combo, you love the back up: It’s Thassa’s Oracle/Laboratory Maniac, Their Copiers and Delney as backup! Use Either/Or with Demonic Consult, Tainted Pact or Doomsday to win the game Buuuuuuuuuuuddy. If this gets blown out by an Opp, use Sakashima x2 to try and redo. You can utilize all searchers for this, but Wizard Cycling right before your draw *Chef’s Kiss*

I would love suggestions on other disgusting Combos in these colors. I need consistent & consistent improvement to actually start getting wins in, especially with the playgroups and shops I apparently go to! I appreciate you all very much for your input!

Last but not least, I would like to thank all the sponsors. They really let us test out this Frankenstein's Monster! : -Waiting4Heaven -HorcattaMaster/ Jinkiies -Deathmurgic/ @Murosan3 -Tainted & -SlutDragon
