Legendary Creature — Human Monk
Flurry — Whenever you cast your second spell each turn, copy it, then exile the spell you cast with four time counters on it. If it doesn't have suspend, it gains suspend. (At the beginning of its owner's upkeep, they remove a time counter. When the last is removed, they may play it without paying its mana cost. If it's a creature, it has haste.)
“Cast two spells each turn to copy and suspend for free value.”
Taigam, Master Opportunist is all about maximizing spell velocity and getting free value from casting multiple spells per turn. Your core gameplan is simple: cast your first spell, then cast a second spell to trigger Flurry, which copies that second spell and suspends the original for later. This means you're essentially getting double the mileage out of your spells while building up a library of free plays waiting in the suspend zone. You're playing a tempo-focused deck that rewards you for doing what blue does best—casting cheap, efficient spells and controlling the board.
The deck wins by chaining together card advantage and tempo to outvalue your opponents. You'll fill the board with tokens and copied effects, then swing in for commander damage or overwhelm with the sheer number of spells generating value. Key to the strategy is filling your deck with efficient cantrips, card draw, and cheap interactive spells that trigger Flurry repeatedly. By turn 4 or 5, you'll have a cascade of suspended spells waiting to resolve, turning your graveyard (or suspend zone) into a hand of free plays. The beauty is that copying spells generates tokens, card draw, and creatures that all contribute to a growing advantage.
