Riku of Two Reflections
Harness the power of mathematics, sequences, and Eldrazi geometry to copy spells and creatures exponentially, overwhelming opponents with fractal tokens and calculated storm turns.
Asked for“a temur deck themed/flavored around mathematics, equations, geometry, calculations, formulae, fractals, sequences, chaos theory, etc. please include the methemagics card and kozilek-themed cards somewhere in there as well”
Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.

The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
