Deck Description

Most Braids deck consist of Braids and a crap ton of big creatures... I wanted to take a different approach to this deck. Originally it was built to be a Tribal Wizard deck... however I was building a bounce deck with Triad of Fates. After I built both decks, I tested them with a friend. Somehow wound up putting Blood Clock in the Braids deck and it was played with a backfiring effect to my friend game because he didn't know what my deck did yet.

Afterwards I looked at the effects of the Braids/Blood Clock combo and decided that I could try to find a way to abuse these cards using bounce creatures and spells. Adding Eternal Dominion was another funny card that could be abused.

I think the deck can use a little more kick. I want to stay away from the "normal" mechanics that other people use when I build my decks, so I look outside the box for unique abilities the can work with certain cards.

How to Play

Braids + Blood Clock or Umbilicus + Any Bounce Creatures = sad faced opponent.
Add Paradox Haze to double the effect.... Copy Enchantment the Paradox Haze... Triple the effect.

Braids + Blood Clock or Umbilicus + Glen Elendra Archmage = never ending counter spell.

Any suggestions would be great. I'm trying to do this on a budget which is why i went with Descendant of Soramaro as opposed to Sensei's Divining Top.
