Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"08/03/24\nV2\n\nI had both these commanders sitting in my collection from a while back and whilst looking for my next deck Wernog really caught my eye. While considering his partner Bjorna's Izzet colours really allow you to have some fun, turning up the ping and really beefing up the blink for Wernog and his clues.\n\nWhat we have here is a deck that synergises well and essentially let's you do a bit of everything. It uses some really interesting clue tech from Karlov Marnor to let you dig when necessary, whilst simultaneously blinking to make artifacts and give you a bit of flexibility in interaction and protection. Bjorna, goading and basilisk collar can also feed the synergies while giving you a bit of repeatable removal. Alternate win cons will also punish your opponents if they allow you to make too many clues.\n\nV2 - lacking of a bit of teeth I've added a lot of construct creation so when the engine's going you should have a strong field to make the strategy a little more robust.\n"}]}
