How to Play

"Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy...
but here's my number...
so, turn me into a pony..."
-My first moments with Jalira

Jalira allows you to "transform" your creatures into a formidable foes to your opponent. The trick here is just to manipulate your library so you won't be getting small creatures. That is possible with numerous scry, top-card-reassembling and library-exiling spells like Manipulate Fate and Selective Memory.

Once you get your library into a great situation, start using Jalira's ability to get some big threats from your deck for cheap! Like, you might be able to do something like this on turn 4:

-You have had Jalira since turn 3 thanks to Silver Myr. Now you have four islands, Jalira and Silver myr.
-Tap Silver Myr in order to cast Index. Look some cards of your library. Put a neat creature on top of it.
-Use three mana to use Jalira's ability. Sacrifice Silver Myr. Toss in the neat creature. You have even one additional land left!

Thanks. : )
...and in the case you won't have any neat creature on top of your library, then you must go with luck, like in old good times.

another inexpensive card is Conjurer's Closet. You have so many trigger abilities when they enter the battlefield it would be amazing to re use them again and again and again....

You are actually right... Conjurer's Closet would be nice with over half of this deck's creatures.
Thanks!

Jalira needs her staff !

Proteus Staff for the win :) Plus you can screw with your opponents' Commanders once they're boarded, hehe

Another great budget deck, Northy. You have my +1 ^_^
