Deck Description

Blue-Green deck with 2 main paths to victory: One is to power out Roar of the Wurms with Quiet Speculation. The other is to combo Teferi's Puzzle Box with Horizon Chimera to gain a bunch of life or Plagiarize to gut your opponent's hand.

The Quiet Speculation assists the the Puzzle Box plan as it can guarantee certain cards in your graveyard, while your opponent might get the cards they were hoping to play swept from their hand. With Speculation you can stick Moment's Peace in your graveyard to buy you time to draw the Plagiarize or Chimera, or can put Roar in your graveyard if you need to pressure the opponent. With Puzzle Box out, even if you don't draw a combo card for it, you can use the Speculation to increase the chance you draw something that allows you to continue your gameplan.

Remand can help you buy time or can act as something similar to a hard counter when Puzzle Box is out, because the card will go to the bottom of the library next upkeep.

Pack Guardian can be a way to get Roar into the graveyard, or can help you play a tempo control plan if you can't get one the main gameplans going. It along with Horizon Chimera and Plagiarize allow you to thwart control decks that now are forced to tap out on their own turn to deal with your instant-speed cards, and you can make matters worse for them by plagiarizing in response to a draw spell.
