Spellsling WIP.
Spellsling WIP is a 100-card Commander deck led by Kess, Dissident Mage in the Grixis color identity (blue/black/red). TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 — optimized / high-power.
The mainboard runs 16 creatures, 19 instants, 11 sorceries, 9 artifacts, 5 enchantments, 2 planeswalkers, and 38 lands, averaging 2.95 mana value across non-land cards. 71% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 13% cost 5 or more.
Notable inclusions: 13 game changers (e.g. Narset, Parter of Veils, Vampiric Tutor, and Cyclonic Rift), 3 fast mana (Dark Ritual, Cabal Ritual, and Lotus Petal), and 2 extra-turn spells (Time Warp and Temporal Manipulation). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.
