Lets look at what makes up a good Erhnam Burnem deck in todays Swedish meta
Then the two-drop Fox enchantment dork Inquisitive Glimmer in Azorius will also drop unlock costs too
We would like to tell two stories: How, and why, we changed the perfect Fluctuator decklist A detailed tournament report by Flint with the new list in action Building the deck We started with this version from 2021: This deck, which I discussed thoroughly in this article, was a really good version of Fluctuator

--- ## Core Strategy The deck revolves around: - **Cheap artifacts that replace themselves** *Ichor Wellspring, Chromatic Star, Energy Refractor* - **Sacrifice outlets / value converters** *Deadly Dispute, Eviscerator's Insight, Sadistic Glee* - **Death triggers & drain payoffs** *Nadiers Nightblade, Shambling Ghast* - **Token production** *Khalni Garden, Basking Broodscale* - **Efficient disruption** *Thoughtseize, Duress, Mesmeric Fiend* - **Free or efficient removal** *Snuff Out, Drown in Sorrow, Sandstorm* The deck plays a **value engine game**, grinding incremental advantages until it overwhelms the opponent via: - Repeated life drain (Nadiers Nightblade) - Massive card advantage from artifact sacrifice - Incremental creature growth (Sadistic Glee) - Or simple attrition and resource denial --- ## Engine Interactions Some key synergies: ### Artifact Value Loop - **Ichor Wellspring / Chromatic Star** Sacrifice with *Deadly Dispute* Draw 2+ cards and create a Treasure Trigger *Nadiers Nightblade* This turns small artifacts into: - Card draw - Mana acceleration - Life drain - Board presence --- ### Basking Broodscale + Sadistic Glee Broodscale produces Eldrazi Spawn when you sacrifice permanents, feeding: - More sacrifice fodder - Mana acceleration - More drain triggers - Huge growth from *Sadistic Glee* This can snowball quickly if not answered

There's some kind of legal reason for this lurking in the background, but the end result is absolutely bizarre
