Deck Description

what is there to say. It's Jhoira of the ****ing Ghitu.

How to Play

Let's face it, she's a one-trick pony....that one trick is just REALLY GOOD. That being said, the key to your victory with this deck is less about the cards and what they can do and more about how, when and why you cast your spells. This deck is not an engine that runs itself, it's hardcore training in time-tactics; measuring turns out to time big suspend bombs with spells in hand while protecting your early board state from counter and removal.

- Have fun. Jhoira is unique in that she allows you to curve your mana for one type of game and win with the mana curve of another game entirely. MANA COST MEANS NOTHING TO YOU so your deck can have incredible diversity within izzet and artifact spells.

- Turn 3 Jhoira is usually a mistake that leaves you open for an early game gimp that is tough to recover from.

- Go into every game intending to board-wipe at least once and don't be afraid to pull the trigger once the combo is in-hand. If you don't, more often than not, your window of opportunity will close unexpectedly.

- You're driven, by Jhoira's mechanic, to suspend as early as humanly possible since it's the turns changing that drives your deck. Don't let this pressure make you overuse Jhoira. Suspend and play 1 win condition at a time, don't go exiling everything face up for everyone to see that you might not have protection spells for your win-condition that is already in the works.

- Use your wits. Don't dive headlong into obvious counter magic. Make good use of Jhoira's ability to react to events by suspending things rather than blowing her wad the moment you have the mana.
