So...let me start with an introduction to the deck. Everyone has heard of Tim and Tom. They typically aren't regarded as very good cards. However...when you build a deck thematically around them and give them a few tricks and toys...they can actually be pretty good. Let's be honest though...this isn't going to win you a tournament. It is however a pretty strong deck that is a lot of fun to play.
I am curious if anyone sees any glaring and obvious "misses" as far as card choices are concerned. I do have a few rules that I follow with all of my casual decks though...so please keep these in mind with suggestions.
1. I avoid infinite and otherwise "unfun" interactions. Yes I know that Curiosity and others like it combo well with Niv-Mizzet...but I have gone out of my way to avoid these unfun...whoops...looks like I win types of combos. Some may disagree with this but...it's how I prefer to play countertop magic.
2. This is a thematic deck based around the idea of pingers.
