Current jams:

[[Sidisi, Brood Tyrant]] - Old zombie tribal build circa 2018, with a few small updates. Has retained much of its power despite me no longer owning a Cradle and being more of a throwback deck.

[[Haldan, Avid Arcanist]] + [[Pako, Arcane Retriever]] - The pair that got the wheels turning again after the pandemic hiatus. Focuses mostly on synergies from playing stuff from exile and having multiple commanders.

[[Kwain, Itinerant Meddler]] - UW Taxes. We're all gonna draw a ton of cards, but we're gonna be reasonable about what you can do with them.

[[Ramos, Dragon Engine]] - Legendary Artificer Tribal. Named characters, a bunch of artifacts and sometimes the gears start turning and weird stuff happens.

[[Tayam, Luminous Enigma]] - Abzan +1/+1 counters and value. Ignoring ability counters because there's already too much to keep track of. Other than Rosie/Oak, all the combos are 5+ piece engines.

Haven't used it and likely never will, but I have to wonder what goes into its process. Does it just pull top hits from EDHRec that match keywords? Does it assign point values and roles to cards to figure out utility or "competitiveness?" Does it give you any explanation for a card being included? Half the joy of the format for me is the puzzle and discovery of deckbuilding. I understand why tools like this and EDHRec exist, but I'm certainly not the target user.
