Dimir Schenanigans. This deck is pretty powerful- and VERY fun to pilot! Every game is different. Freshly brewed new Dimir deck for myself.. still working out the kinks & will put in a better description after some play-testing/refining! As it stands, I plan on ramping/milling, casting Lazav, Dimir Mastermind , ramping/milling some more, then copying/casting something big, then copy/cast something else that is big, rinse & repeat! I tried to focus on targeted removal & milling, then copying/casting from other player's libraries/graveyards/battlefield. I hopefully can get Lazav, Dimir Mastermind equipped with Hammer of Nazahn , then Sword of Light and Shadow , followed by Whispersilk Cloak .. or just Body Double / Extract from Darkness some monsters.. or Brainstorm / Ponder with Talrand, Sky Summoner .. or, etc etc, there should be lots of little synergies, and a few big ones. Oona, Queen of the Fae & Chasm Skulker can both provide chump blocking fodder, while Propaganda should be an amazingly good token deterrent, and Maze of Ith deters Voltron. Rhystic Study , Consecrated Sphinx , Notion Thief , & Blue Sun's Zenith are some of the best card draw spells in the game (EDIT: I replaced Blue Sun's Zenith with Pull from Tomorrow for the less restrictive casting cost plus an extra card-filtering pull with the draw/discard. Doesn't go back into the deck, and also can't mill opponent with it, but I think it's worth it. Stroke of Genius is the other option in the same category, but I like the extra draw with the filter/discard attached to it in Pull from Tomorrow ). If I can discard or mill Wonder into my graveyard, it'll make all of my fatties very, very good (flying fatties!!). Only boardwipe is Damnation . I wanted to include Nevinyrral's Disk as a boardwipe, but it got cut because it would likely always do more harm than good: nearly every piece of ramp in this deck is an artifact! so coming back would be nigh impossible. Talisman of Dominance got cut in favor of Coalition Relic simply because of the possible activated abilities that could be used by Lazav, Dimir Mastermind , Necrotic Ooze , Extract from Darkness , Body Double , Clever Impersonator , Dimir-doppleganger, Bribery , & Rite of Replication . This was also the reasoning behind my inclusion of Exotic Orchard , but Chromatic Lantern & Darksteel Ingot are just plain good, especially in UB, even without this secondary benefit. Since I will be milling everyone like crazy, & hopefully benefiting from it, I have included Bojuka Bog to take care of anybody who has similar aspirations. Knowledge Pool is in the Maybe Board only because of the Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir combo, but I don't have many tutoring effects to really pull it off, just Demonic Tutor . I would add Sensei's Divining Top , but the only one I own is in my WonderCats deck, and I don't personally like moving them around. Overall, this is a very difficult deck to evaluate on TappedOut, because it is extremely interactive and totally depends on the strength of an opponent's individual cards. I played against a Saproling & a Goblin deck once, which wasn't good for me, but there is usually someone with some big beaters like Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre or Vorinclex to copy/steal. All else fails, I can Dimir-doppleganger or The Scarab God my Sheoldred, Whispering One into play, though Consecrated Sphinx is often a target as well. One thing I really like about Lazav is that his name STAYS Lazav, Dimir Mastermind ! So the Legendary Rule doesn't apply to him when he copies: for example, I Pongify 'd a Gisela, Blade of Goldnight , copied it with Lazav when it hit the graveyard, then Body Double 'd it and kept both! 4x damage to opponents and 1/4th damage to me (and same to our respective permanents!).. During my last EDH outing, I ended up with TWO Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre s, one of which was Hexproof and technically named Lazav, Dimir Mastermind , while the other was equipped with Sword of Body and Mind - plus I had Wrexial out and equipped with Hammer of Nazahn - plus Wonder was in my graveyard, so everyone was flying lol..
