What decks are everyone working on right now?
**What decks are folks working on and tinkering with? What challenges are you facing with building your new deck or with playing your recently completed deck?**
For myself I've just started pulling some pieces together for a Bracket 3 \[\[The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster\]\] as a 1) a way to use a bunch of good equipment cards I have around and 2) as an homage to the legacy/modern Azorius stoneblade decks. Azorius Thor is repeatable blink and card draw in the command zone, making her a potentially powerful draw and control engine (blinking creatures/artifacts with interaction etb effects).
It will run the expected \[\[Stoneforge Mystic\]\] and \[\[Cloud, Midgar Mercenary\]\]. I'll also scam some warp permanents like \[\[Starwinder\]\], \[\[Anticausal Vestige\]\] and \[\[Starfield Vocalist\]\]. Most of the equipment in the deck will be cheap to provide incremental value and fuel a few strong artifacts/equipment-matter cards like \[\[Uthros, titanic god core\]\], Karnstructs from \[\[Urza's Saga\]\]/\[\[Simulacrum Synthesizer\]\], and \[\[Nettlecyst\]\], to name a few. I'm excited to try out the new insane equipment deck staple, \[\[Swordsman's Steel\]\]. Also looking forward to using \[\[Loki, god of mischief\]\] as another repeatable draw engine (*for a mere 2 mana)*. The main challenge for the deck will be having the appropriate balance of equipment, blink synergies, and creatures to actually win the game with, but I'll try a few different configurations of the deck to figure that out. I'm really hoping that I'll be able to run \[\[Paradoxical Outcome\]\] so I can bounce all of my equipment and re-cast it with a cost reducer on board, but we'll see if that makes the cut.
