Honestly, try and cut some of the instants unless you can consistently lose life on other turns besides your own, and if you can consistently untap Rowan on other turns [[sting]]
Multiple cards match “sting”, can you be more specific?
[[Sting, the glinting dagger]]
cut [[rising]], there are better haste enablers for single creatures. Especially because it seems the only creature you are tring to gve haste is your commander
Multiple cards match “rising”, can you be more specific?
[[rising of the day]]
also maybe cut the gain control of effects, there are much better cards that fit the deck archetype
Thanks!
fractured powerstone and prismatic lens are both kind of unusual. Unless you only play planechase, id cut the powerstone
inspired tinkering and piate's pilage and also any other creat treasure effects arent super useful if your commander is producing most of the mana for X spells.
Also, the bbest card/must have for this deck is [[heartless hidetsugu]]
Great pick haven't seen that in any deck lists
my idea with inspired tinkering and pirate's pillage if it's only one red due to rowan pays for it's self and gives more colored mana for X cost/big spells as wells as cards
Updated with your suggestions in mind any other ideas before I start play testing? I feel like there has to be better pay life options that [[Mischievous poltergeist]] and [[Carrion howler]]
good logic with the treasure, but in two colors and with good mana fixing, it shouldnt be a problem
the good thing about those options for life loss is that you can decide exactly how much life to pay. I would check EDHREC for some better life loss options than Carrion Howler (Cuz it just dies if you decide to pay more than two life) but poltergeist seems okay
some other fun life loss ones are the Defiler (of instinct and flesh), but sadly yu cant repeat them over and over
add [[moltensteel dragon]]
and maybe for some spice add [[Urabrask]]
Legendary Creature — Phyrexian Praetor
First strike
Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, Urabrask deals 1 damage to target opponent. Add
.
: Exile Urabrask, then return it to the battlefield transformed under its owner's control. Activate only as a sorcery and only if you've cast three or more instant and/or sorcery spells this turn.
4/4
The Great Work
Enchantment — Saga
(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter.)
I — The Great Work deals 3 damage to target opponent and each creature they control.
II — Create three Treasure tokens.
III — Until end of turn, you may cast instant and sorcery spells from any graveyard. If a spell cast this way would be put into a graveyard, exile it instead. Exile The Great Work, then return it to the battlefield (front face up).

: Heartless Hidetsugu deals damage to each player equal to half that player's life total, rounded down.
can be paid with either
