Gameplan

  1. Play [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]].
  2. Circumvent the "legend rule" to allow copies of [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] to be created.
  3. Make as many copies of [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] as possible and somehow win the game.

Getting around the "legend rule"

To make getting one of these cards easier,

Copy effects

Creatures
Creatures are important to this deck because the best way to start the game off is by playing [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] and then casting a spell on a non-[[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] creature to get 2 copies of the spell. For this reason, there are many creatures in the deck.

Draw spells
There are many targeted draw spells that can become powerful when copied. 1-mana instants are prioritized.

Notable interactions

  • There are some on-theme cards in the mana base: [[Vastwood Fortification]] pumps all the [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]]s, while [[Glasspool Mimic]] can become an extra [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]].
  • [[Biovisionary]] can randomly win since there are so many copy effects.
  • [[One with Nature]] is a great ramp option because it can get copied onto all the [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]]s.
  • [[Spider Umbra]] is a great wrath protection option because it can get copied onto the [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]]s.
  • [[Gaea's Cradle]] is obviously good with the creature plan.
  • Protection spells can save every copy of [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] at once. (some even put +1/+1 counters on them all while protecting them!)
  • [[Verdant Confluence]] is cool because it can target one creature with 2, 4, or 6 +1/+1 counters and also do other things (ramp and card advantage) at the same time. Then when it gets copied, it does the other things multiple times while buffing all the [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]]s.

Side-/Maybeboard Thoughts
There are many redundant pieces in the side-/maybeboards. The balance is hard to see.

  • For example, getting around the "legend rule" is tantamount to this deck's strategy, but [[Mirror Gallery]] is still in the sideboard for now.
  • Pump cards like [[Become Immense]] aren't in the main deck right now on the though that generating many copies of [[Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief]] with a single counter on them will kill people already.
  • There are other draw, protection, and ramp options that just didn't all fit.
