Primer
by @dragmc · 3 min readturns every noncreature spell you cast into a +1/+1 counter and 1 damage to each opponent. The plan is to generate raw mana from rituals (, , , Lion's Eye Diamond, , , , Basalt Monolith) and cheap cantrips (Opt, , , , ) to fill the graveyard, then cast : every nonland card in your graveyard gains escape (mana cost plus exile three other cards from graveyard). You recast rituals via escape to net more mana than they cost, paying the exile cost with already-used cantrips, and each recast triggers Vivi for damage and growth. offers a second recursion pattern via flashback on instants/sorceries. doubles magecraft/Vivi triggers when in play; Harmonic Prodigy does the same for triggered abilities of Wizards/Shamans. and convert every cast into Treasures or direct damage. draws a card off each instant/sorcery cast by anyone and deals damage whenever you draw; draws on every magecraft trigger. The main win condition is a storm-copied or after an loop, or simply enough direct damage from Vivi//Niv-Mizzet Parun to close the game outright. sacrifices itself at end step, so the loop must close the same turn it's cast. Weaknesses: the deck is fragile to hand disruption and graveyard hate (grave hate shuts off and ); it depends on finding enough cheap rituals/cantrips to trigger the loop, so unlucky hands or aggressive mulligans can strand it without gas; Vivi itself is vulnerable to removal since it's the only scalable repeatable mana source. and protect the key turn.
