Deck Description

Looked for a deck, this was the best i could find. I want to make this deck buy-able/not cards in super expensive decks (sol ring). If you have advice, please post.

How to Play

This description came with the deck. None of these words are mine.

I've been wanting to build a Phelddagrif deck for a while, because he's the PERFECT multiplayer edh general. Why? He's got blue to counter major enemy threats, white to kill them, green to pump them out...and most importantly, he's very unlikely to be taken seriously, so people will focus on killing each other. And you can happily sit back and give favors to whoever you please. It's the ultimate politician deck.

But how do you keep from always coming in second? As every douchebag knows, infinite combos are the easiest way to clear out a big multiplayer game. In order to avoid drawing hate, all the "tutors" in the deck (except LTP) are just ways to sift through the deck until you hit the deadly - and fully concealed - combo: mischievous quanar + turnabout. From there, all you need is any targeted draw spell (including oona's grace from the grave...devious) and you can deck everyone immediately (tap 'em out first). if you want to be 100% concealed, use either teferi, mage of zhalfir or scout's warning. or winding canyons is 99% concealed.

The basic strategy - help everyone out and generally act as though you're a "group hug" deck until you've got your combo pieces in hand...then you can either win immediately, or let the game continue until you're bored and win. personally i favor the latter approach. wait until someone else is set to win...then kill 'em all in response.

Pretending to be a group hug deck, then instantly killing everyone...sounds like fun to me.
