This deck is about tapping and untapping for value or damage, and draining opponents for their hand size. Been working on various forms of this since Sokrates was announced. I have a working deck currently. But this is an effort to upgrade. I try not to spend more than $15 on a single card, and try not to have too many of those in a deck. I am well aware that the mana base needs some work. I am open to adjustments if they meet budget requirements mentioned above.

Certainly an interesting deck concept but how has it played out in real games so far? The themes feel a bit scattered as there’s pay offs for you drawing cards as well as opponents drawing cards, but opponents can deny your draw from Socrates by not attacking you

The deck is also pretty low on interaction so if someone goes lowish and wide and you can only Socrates one thing and your pingers can only hit 1-2 things, that feels like trouble. This is of course just speculation based on only looking at the deck
