Information

An alternative version of SS(+t) Inspire, utilizing Madness + Meditation to take your opponents best threat, and then inspire it.

With the advent of Into Shadow and Vara, Vengeance-Seeker, Madness based strategies seem more real. Although, it depends on whether creature-based Midrange will make more of a presence in the meta.


flex:
-X Blackhall Warleader
+X Ripknife Assassin

-X Meditation/Devour
+X Shakedown

-X Xenan Initiation
+X Annihilate/Banish

-X Jawbone Greatsword
+X Statuary Maiden/Zuberi, Outlands Warlord/In Cold Blood


sigil base:
Originally I was trying to take the build from Haunted Highway except we don't play enough 2 drops, are too shadow intensive for a pure waystone/banner sigilbase, and needed to run some number of Seek Power to bring up our percentages to play Auric Interrogator and Jawbone Greatsword on curve.
The current chances of playing Magus of Celerity and Xenan Initiation are around 65-70% but you shouldn't need to be playing them on curve in the first place.

Wyatt, Junk Collector is a good option over war leader too. Also, tweaking the mana base isnt a bad idea either. Found it difficult to cast time cards.

Huh, i never thought about using meditation like that. Pretty funny. I would just go 4x ripknife, warleader is awful

yea 100% agree, i just usually try to hedge between jank and not-absolutley-terrible on this account (but then give the flex spots to fix it)

In my personal experience, I'd lean towards absolute terrible for warleader. Every once in a while it shows up in lists, but every time i try to give it a chance, it's a mistake
