Adeliz, the Cinder Wind

Gameplan

Deploy Adeliz early as a cheap evasive threat, then chain cheap instants and sorceries to repeatedly pump her and your other Wizards while drawing cards and protecting her. You win by turning Adeliz into a fast clock—often killing the table with commander damage—while a wide Wizard board and spell velocity grind out value. Hold up interaction so each spell does double duty as a buff and an answer.

Key Cards

• Naru Meha, Master Wizard — Enables an infinite spell loop with a copyable buyback/cheap instant to make Adeliz arbitrarily large and trigger Wizards endlessly.
• Young Pyromancer — Generates Elemental tokens off your spell density, though true payoff is more Wizards—pairs with token makers to widen the board for pumps.
• Adeliz, the Cinder Wind — The engine herself—every instant or sorcery grows your team, so the whole deck is built to cast spells efficiently.
• Mystic Reflection — Cheap instant that buffs Adeliz while answering a key creature, embodying the deck's dual-purpose spells.
• Snapcaster Mage — A Wizard that recasts your buffs and interaction, doubling as a body that benefits from the +1/+1 trigger.
• Aetherflux Reservoir — A storm-style payoff that punishes your high spell count and offers a non-combat kill against lifegain or stalled boards.

Upgrade Path

Lower the curve and add free or cheap interaction (Pyroblast, Mystical Tutor, Brainstorm) so every turn advances the clock while protecting Adeliz with counters and Lightning Greaves. Add efficient card advantage like Mystic Remora, Rhystic Study, and Archmage Emeritus to avoid running dry. For higher power, install the Naru Meha combo and storm payoffs to convert your spell density into a deterministic kill rather than relying solely on combat.
