This deck also plays an exciting lands matter subtheme. With Knight of the Reliquary fueling landfall triggers and finding utility lands, there’s a huge incentive for an interesting package of land synergies. That’s especially true when Azusa, Lost But Seeking, Ramunap Excavator, and Tireless Tracker can all be hit by Collected Company.
Ramunap Excavator in particular is exciting because it lets you rebuy key lands like Horizon Canopy and Ghost Quarter, while Azusa, Lost But Seeking lets you do it multiple times in a turn. If you’ve got Tireless Tracker or Courser of Kruphix in the mix, you can start generating substantial card advantage or selection.
One of the most interesting thing about this deck is the amount of flexibility you have in building it. Collected Company means you can find any number of value creatures depending on what you expect to play against. Everything from Aven Mindcensor to Qasali Pridemage is completely reasonable. When you can consistently Collected Company into cards that are above the curve for their cost and synergize well with one another, you’re in a pretty great spot.
If you’re looking for a midrange deck capable of keeping up with the attrition decks in the format, this is a great place to start. You may struggle some against fast starts from Death’s Shadow, but the density of high impact creatures means you’ll be in reasonable shape against most any other fair deck, and Collected Company means you have a lot of opportunities to find one-ofs or two-ofs that swing the unfair matchups. All in all, this is a flexible deck that has game against most of the format, but will turn you into a huge favorite if you can accurately predict what your metagame will look like.
