I'm looking to abuse Mutate to make things non-legendary, but stacked with mutate triggers. Such as Vadrok's to keep casting Cackling Counterpart and other spells. An army of mutated beasts in Jeskai! Muahahahha!

Refinement of the concept has focused in on some core values.

Core Loop

Create a copy of Vadrok, preferably in a mutate stack. Now mutate Vadrok atop that stack for multiple Vadrok triggers. Hopefully drawing cards and continuing to cast Quasiduplicate for value.

Win con

Ultimately, you're trying to go wide with tokens created by casting non-creature spells. At which point, Jeskai Ascendancy and the team pumping mutates, like Royal Leosaur can buff your team. And Crimson Wisps, Fervor, or Hammer of Purphoros can let them swing immediately for a massive attack.

Maybe Board is things I liked, and which can work with Vadrok, but don't apply so well to current win conditions. Like Livewire Lash is great at triggering off Mutate. But doesn't fit current deck velocity.

Finally settled on a list to order the cards for paper. Some things were fun, but I cut Jeskai Ascendency as it was too powerful for my target and definitely not a casual card. Mostly the same goals. Get a mutate stack going, then copy it to kick the value chain up a notch. trying a few more things such as Dovin, Grand Arbiter as a non-creature that makes creatures and then can have value. Almost went with Raven's Warning too, even without the search your sideboard at the end of it. Also as a cute addition is MDFC Rowan, Scholar of Sparks  Flip as Vadrok can choose her, then cast either her or Will. As ever trying to be fun without too oppressive. Still debating whether or not to run Crimson Wisps. I like it as a spell based haste effect that cycles. But hazy on what I should cut for it too.
