The Sixth Doctor
Legendary Creature — Time Lord Doctor
Time Lord's Prerogative — Whenever you cast a historic spell, copy it, except the copy isn't legendary. This ability triggers only once each turn. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic. A copy of a permanent spell becomes a token.)

Strategy
The Sixth Doctor wants you to lean into casting historic spells—artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas—and turn each one into a free copy. This generates absurd value by doubling your mana rocks, copying your best legendary creatures, or triggering Saga effects twice in a turn. The gameplan is to ramp into the Doctor, then chain historic spells together to build a board presence that overwhelms opponents through sheer card advantage and resource generation.
Your win comes from a combination of card advantage and tempo: you're casting the same spells as everyone else, but getting them twice. Legendary creatures enter as tokens, so you can go wide with a tokens strategy, or stack up your best utility legends for repeated effects. The deck plays midrange-to-control, using your extra copies to maintain tempo while you assemble a winning position through superior resources and board state.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Skip expensive legendaries like Jace, the Mind Sculptor; lean on cheap artifact mana and modal Sagas like Ertai's Grimoire and The Antiquities War instead.
