Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"This is my Fish 4.0 deck.\nIt has a long history.\nFish 1.0 was the first deck I ever built.\nI started playing Magic 2019 when \"War of the Sparx\" was released.\n\nIt started as \"Sanjis (from OnePiece) all blue deck, which described a pirates story to find the All-Blue, a mysterious sea where all existing fish live. Later got revamped into a Kraken, Leviathan, Octopus and Kraken deck helmed by Thassa, Godess of the Sea. And finally became this version, playing all kind of different sea creatures, while Volo keeps record about all the ominous species living in the dark dephts of the sea.\n\nUses no extra turns, no fast mana, 1 tutor for instants and sorceries and 1 tutor for lands.\nThis deck wins with instant-win combos using \"lab man / jace / thassas oracle\" and drawing or milling your whole library with \"enter the infinite\" or \"mirror-mad phantasm\".\n"}]}
