Now that eggs is banned. I wanted to reveal a deck concept I want to build called "math is fun!"

It's a deck that uses {clock of omens} and I want the victory condition to be {enter the infinite}. Possibly even go infinite with it (with the help of {Elixer of imortality})

You all can go ahead and take this idea and make your own variations. Though I'd like some feedback and ideas please

Modern. Or budget legacy. But I'm leaning towards modern

Just so everyone knows, this isn't supposed to be a copy of eggs. It will be something completely original

So can I make my version?

Birdbrain

Sure. But the concept is the deck uses lots and lots of math through the games

Math 😱

It doesn't have to be complicated math. It could be simple math too. Or Math-y cards

have tons of 0 cost artifacts that give you mana to ramp into  {Clock of Omens} and then  {Gilded Lotus} sense most of the artifacts in you deck have a cmc of 0 you should have plenty by now so you can use clock to untap lotus several times giving you the mana to cast  {Enter the Infinite} cast the rest of your 0 cost artifacts and then  {Grapeshot}! How does that sound?

What about {mesmeric orb}?

As a win con?
possibly. With all those 0 cost artifacts, you have lots of stuff to tap to untap stuff

You could use {Laboratory Maniac}

I suppose so but  {Grapeshot} would probrobly be more efficient.
