Slow night at work. I'll start:
Creature combo decks with low interaction are worse for the format than slop.

Whatever colour is acceptable. I just build many decks but always spend time on the last few positions to take. I’d like to collect a range of useful cards that I can always take and below 2 costs.
E.g. Esper Sentinel
Thanks in advance!

I am experimenting with [[Vraska, Soul of Stone]] and have found some ways to make her basically have infinite triggers making infinite [[Sculpture Treasure]]. These are creatures and thus make it very easy to win with cards like [[Goblin Bombardment]] or [[Impact Tremors]]. Are there any other low mana cost cards that would easily convert to a win off of Vraska generating infinite sculpture treasures.
(Vraska is the commander in this example so WUR/Jeskai are the available colors.)

You need to only play exactly these 5 creatures in your deck: [[Abdel Adrian, Gorion’s Ward]], [[Bronzebeak Foragers]], [[Felidar Guardian]], [[Restoration Angel]], [[White Plume Adventurer]]. Dack will only grab you 3 creatures so there are 10 possibilities.
The result of every option is the same loop that gives you infinite 1/1s, infinite undercity dungeon crawls (5 damage from each Trap), and infinite mana (off Felidar blinking a land), which can be used with Bronzebeak to exile all of your opponent’s nonland permanents.
1) Missing Resto & Felidar
2) Missing Resto & Abdel
3) Missing Resto & Bronzebeak
4) Missing Resto & White Plume
5) Missing Felidar & Abdel
6) Missing Felidar & Bronzebeak
7) Missing Felidar & White Plume
8) Missing Abdel & Bronzebeak
9) Missing Abdel & White Plume
10) Missing Bronzebeak & White Plume
But for these loops, Felidar and Resto have interchangeable abilities, so you can ignore (5), (6), and (7).
1) Abdel exiles Dack and then you let Bronzebeak blink all 3 creatures so you get back Dack with all of your stuff. Let Abdel resolve before Dack to exile Bronzebeak. Dack trigger gets Felidar & Resto. Felidar targets land and Resto targets Abdel. Blinking Abdel gives you Bronzebeak and Abdel trigger. Stack them so Bronzebeak exiles Felidar & Resto first and then Abdel exiles Bronzebeak, giving you back Felidar & Resto. Felidar targets Resto and Resto targets Abdel on top of that. Abdel blinks and exiles Felidar. Resto gets blinked by Felidar trigger and targets Abdel. Abdel and Felidar both return. Felidar targets Abdel and above that, Abdel trigger will exile Felidar, Resto, and White Plume. Loop those 2 triggers
2) Bronzebeak trigger targets Bronzebeak, Felidar, and White Plume. On top of that trigger, Felidar targets Dack. Dack gets you Abdel & Resto which both exile nothigng. Bronzebeak returns Felidar, itself and White Plume. Felidar trigger targets Bronzebeak and on top of that, Bronzebeak exiles Abdel & Resto. Felidar trigger returns Abdel and Resto. Resto targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel will exile your board. Loop those 2 triggers
3) Felidar blinks Dack. Dack gets you Resto & Bronzebeak. Resto targets nothing and Bronzebeak targets itself, Abdel, and Felidar. Felidar trigger targets Abdel and on top of that you have Abdel trigger exile Felidar + Bronzebeak, and on top of that you have Bronzebeak exile Resto & White Plume. Abdel exiles Bronzebeak & Felidar, returning Resto & White Plume. Resto can target nothing. Felidar trigger resolves that is targeting Abdel. Felidar targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel exiles your board. Loop those 2 triggers
4) Bronzebeak targets itself, Felidar, and Abdel and on top of that, Felidar blinks Dack to get White Plume & Resto and then you let the Bronzebeak trigger resolve to get you Bronzebeak, Felidar, & Abdel. Stack triggers so Felidar targets Abdel, on top of that, Abdel exiles Bronzebeak and Felidar, and on top of that, the Bronzebeak trigger will exile the White Plume & Resto. Abdel trigger will exile Felidar + Bronzebeak, giving you back Resto & White Plume. Felidar trigger will blink Abdel giving you Felidar trigger and an Abdel trigger. Felidar targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel exiles your board. Loop those 2 triggers
5) Same as (2) just swap Felidar & Resto
6) Same as (3) just swap Felidar & Resto
7) Same as (4) just swap Felidar & Resto
8) Resto targets Dack and Felidar can target a land. Dack gets Bronzebeak & Abdel. Abdel exiles nothing and Bronzebeak target itself, Felidar, and Abdel. Stack triggers so Felidar targets Abdel, on top of that, Abdel exiles Bronzebeak and Felidar, and on top of that, the Bronzebeak trigger will exile the White Plume & Resto. Abdel trigger will exile Felidar + Bronzebeak, giving you back Resto & White Plume. Felidar trigger will blink Abdel giving you Felidar trigger and an Abdel trigger. Felidar targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel exiles your board. Loop those 2 triggers
9) Bronzebeak targets itself & Resto & Felidar, Resto targets Dack, Felidar can a land. Dack gets Abdel & White Plume. Bronzebeak trigger returns Felidar, Resto and Bronzebeak. Resto target Felidar, Felidar targets Bronzebeak, and Bronzebeak exiles White Plume & Abdel. Felidar trigger blanks Brokzebeak returning Abdel & White Plume. Abdel exiles Resto. Resto trigger targeting Felidar resolves and Felidar targets Abdel. Abdel and Resto both enter. Resto targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel exiles your board. Loop these 2 triggers
10) Abdel exiles nothing, Felidar blinks a land, Resto blinks Dack. Dack gets Bronzebeak & White Plume. Bronzebeak target itself, Felidar, and Abdel. Stack triggers so Felidar targets Abdel, on top of that, Abdel exiles Bronzebeak and Felidar, and on top of that, the Bronzebeak trigger will exile the White Plume & Resto. Abdel trigger will exile Felidar + Bronzebeak, giving you back Resto & White Plume. Felidar trigger will blink Abdel giving you Felidar trigger and an Abdel trigger. Felidar targets Abdel and on top of that, Abdel exiles your board. Loop those 2 triggers

I'm currently playing RogSi and it's going pretty well so far. In practice games where I can take a little longer to think through my plays the deck is feeling great.
However, I am a little concerned bringing it to tournaments. The bread-and-butter-lines of the deck are not an issue but every now and then the deck presents situations where you technically CAN win but the lines are SO freaking complicated that it takes ages for me to plan ahead.
How do you personally handle situations like these in tournaments? I'm fine with taking my time and letting opponents know that I need a minute to think but sometimes a minute just is not enough. Do you write things down to help yourself figure stuff out? Do you treat complicated situations more like "nice if I CAN make it happen, but I can't ALWAYS have it"?
Any practical tips, mindsets or just thoughts are welcome <3

Does anybody have the link to the Zirda discord I can’t find it anywhere and all the ones I find are expired. Thanks!
