Blinking is pretty much the best, and us Commander players love to get our value Fblthp, the Lost Master of Waves (explain how during the flicker no one gets priority, so when state-based actions are checked, master is alive and well, and protecting their flock of elementals) Watcher for Tomorrow Mulldrifter Frost Titan Meteor Golem  Pondering Mage Cunning Evasion Barrin, Tolarian Archmage Blink and you might miss it Rishadan Cutpurse Rishadan Footpad Rishadan Brigand Here there be Pirates, yarr! Note: Thassa is worded as follows: “At the beginning of your end step, exile up to one other target creature you control, then return that card to the battlefield under your control.” This means that you get to keep anything you blink Overtaker Chamber of Manipulation Agent of Treachery Sower of Temptation (repeatable with Thassa, given enough turns) Blatant Thievery Crystal Shard Conjurer’s Closet Ghostly Flicker + Archeomancer Displace Department of Commander Redundancy Department Verity Circle (Might even be awesome against mana dorks) Dismiss into Dream Willbreaker Gadwick, the Wizened Just give it a little tappy Here is the original decklist from DJ: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/thassa-blinks-the-best/ Spellseaker Glen Elendra Archmage Vendilion Clique Venser, Shaper Savant Keeper of Keys Vedalken Shackles Panharmonicon Cyclonic Rift Temporal Manipulation Time Warp Ancient Tomb Homeward Path Miren, the Moaning Well Some notable cards cut for costs Training Grounds (Only works when Thassa is a creature) Hearthstone (Same caveat as Training Grounds) Erratic Portal Notable non-budget cards not in the original list 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider (If you have the means, we highly recommend picking these up) Main Topic - Thassa, Dwelling in the Deep Thassa is the Sea’s Knees! What do you think about this deck? Have you played against Thassa? Is this the kind of deck you would like to play? Did you like the fact that we did some budget content? Summary Keep it Social!
