How it grades
Fundamentals 85/100. Plays like Spellslinger.
This reads as Spellslinger, built around Sevinne, the Chronoclasm. The spells are the deck: every instant and sorcery triggers payoffs (drain, tokens, copies, treasure), so chaining cheap cantrips is the game plan. Creature count stays low by design; protect the two or three payoff engines and the velocity does the rest. Its strongest fundamental is land count (40 lands. About 41 fits this curve for Spellslinger); the first thing to tighten is legality & size: 1 card isn't legal in Commander.
