Gale, Waterdeep Prodigy

Gale is a tempo-focused wizard that turns your graveyard into a second hand. Every instant or sorcery you cast from hand lets you flashback a spell of the opposite type from your graveyard for free, then exile it. This creates a grinding advantage engine where you're getting two-for-one spell value while filling your graveyard with fuel. You win by casting cheap spells repeatedly, upgrading your board position each turn, and eventually grinding opponents down with card advantage and evasive creatures.

The deck leans heavily on cheap cantrips, removal, and card draw to keep the engine spinning. Run plenty of instants and sorceries with different mana costs so you always have something to flashback. Creatures like Snapcaster Mage and Murktide turn your graveyard interaction into threats. Since Gale works best in longer games, focus on controlling the board early, then pivoting to tempo beats once you've stabilized. The Background mechanic gives you flexibility to add second-commander synergies that either boost your spells or provide utility.
