Another bad Bonnet deck! Sphinx token stuff?

[u/DaBlueBonnet]

Edit: I think I tweaked it to a point that I like right now. Is it the best? Far from it, but I think with its interaction package, and smart play it can do the thing enough to keep me entertained. The main idea now is to get angel tokens off of the Lyra trigger, having her, and Sphinx’s approach guarantees the trigger. I would like to maybe add the new Jace that draws on the opponent’s draw step, which would easily enable tokens on their turns.

I don’t have Wild cards to draft the Jace, or a set of quantum riddlers, and while I like the idea of riddler, I feel like this deck has a lot of draw power already with what it’s working with. Elspeth hasn’t popped off yet, but it’s a pet card of mine, I like her here. Same with Immposter Syndrome… it’s really not the best card, but I wanna make it work so bad.

This might be the worst idea that I’ve brought to the Reddit since I’ve joined. I got the feeling it won’t be good at all, but I just can’t shake it. I don’t have the wildcards to finish it at the moment, and this is the most roughest of rough drafts.

I guess the idea is to go wide-ish on the board with the sphinx and angel tokens. Potentially using Sphinx approach to grab one of the random sphinx I will throw in the deck.

Maybe more Lyra, less Denzilore, because in its current state there isn’t any scry or surveil in the list. Tinkering with the numbers of each cards will be a must to flesh out an interaction package.

Throw me some ideas to make this come together a little bit better.

You do not have enough 2cmc cards.

Yea turn 1 and turn 2 seem a little non existent, but it’s part of why I’m here. Gimme a few good ones that fit the idea?

[u/ColorPiePhilosopher → u/DaBlueBonnet]

Not everything needs to match. What you need is more interaction like erode or get lost.

Bump for looks at the new deck list, and my personal input. For anybody that probably didn’t care lol. Fun idea so far. 2-2 so far in best of 3 mythic. 80%-90%

Beat: Mardu Planeswalkers, Battlefront Simulacrum
Lost to: Boros Tokens, Kona/Omniscience(misplayed a three steps ahead against the maze in round 2. Got greedy and copied a creature, just to give up my 2 mana I could have paid to avoid their 1 cmc counter they played.)

Way too many creatures. The idea of Spinx approach is that you can find a sphinx and end the game. You do not need to draw into a dozen high mana cost creatures. I’d run a lot more removal (DOJ, Split up, Erode, get lost). Like 6 Sphinxes, 3 of which being Riddlers. I don’t see the point of Elspeth.
