This deck is about as arcane and wonky as the title I gave it... or as arcane and wonky as using "arcane" with its dictionary definition when talking about a game literally called "Magic."

There's a lot of weird crap you can do with this deck. You can also just use the cards normally, and they're kinda OK, but that's boring.

 

The original idea was to turn things into artifacts with Minimus Containmentimage so that they can be copied with Saheeli Rai, but I realized that it's not super amazing, just kind of cool and possibly useful. If you wanna try it yourself, and really go in hard on this exact interaction, maybe check out Masterful Replicationimage and/or Spark Doubleimage for some related stuff.

Instead, I decided to just do a bunch of "Yeah this is a thing you can do using Minimus Containment on your own stuff..." combined with token synergy, because the hope is that you can copy either of the Sagas into tokens and start making everything confusing for any number of reasons.

 

Anyway, here's a quick rundown of the main synergies you have with Minimus Containment:

Option A: Use it to copy an enchantment with Saheeli Raiimage. After doing that you could also copy the copy with Esika's Chariotimage so that you can copy it more, later, without using Saheeli's -2 (because of course otherwise it goes away at end of turn).

Option B: Use it on an enchantment token you control, so that Battle for Bretagardimage can copy that token (whereas usually it can't copy enchantment tokens). And if you do manage to make a token copy of Battle of Bretagard in particular, and enchant it before either Saga finishes, you'll keep getting more Battles as soon as any run out, along with all the other token duplicating. (Note: Mythos of Illunaimage is the main way to get token copies of enchantments, but of course there's the thing from Option A)

Option C: Use it on The Akroan Warimage. Because of how the first ability is worded, after you get your second saga trigger (or before, but that's less value I'd say) you can remove all of its abilities, and you'll still control the creature you took control of. Costs 1 total mana more than an In Bolas' Clutches would, but has a lot of comparative upside.
