So I finally finished leveling Tezzeret (my favorite walker mtgpq), so I decided to buy an Origins Fatback as a reward of sorts. I got a whole lot of duplicates common and uncommon and not a single rare.... but I drew a Mythic rare instead, and not just any mythic; Thopter Spy Network!!!! The one card my Tezzeret deck was missing; now its awesome beyond belief!

    Care to share the deck?

    How does it do in QB

    Yay, well done! I've avoided buying Tezzeret because I don't have Thopter Spy Network and it doesn't look like you can build a decent blue supports deck without it.

    To be honest I "regret" getting tezzeret.(I got it for free with QB weekend)
    I have thopter.

    The problem is that you rely on thopter... And that's it.

    It can be an ok tactic if only other supports you play could impact the game directly.
    At the moment i have no such supports.
    Also until bfz I think for my best tezzeret support I miss only orb of warden as another way to stall the game to get the combo.
    If only tezzeret was white or even better white and blue.
    Then it would be reeeeally fun and also strong.

    We will see if this changes with oath of the gatewatch, but since it will consist of only(if I remember correctly) 53 cards I doubt it.
    To be noted that probably one the best supports ever, the new mirropool mythic, does not work well In a heavy support tezzeret deck :/

    I have given up on support heavy Tezzeret, using just one support now ; 'pyromancer's goggles' and relying on his second ability to draw it and meanwhile i play basic blue creatures like harbinger and mizzium to keep the board full

    Yes I tried that too but I do not like it.
    Is strong enough but I feel like playing a different build for jace.
    I would like to build a proper support deck like I did with Gideon some time ago.
    That deck worked pretty well and would also be really good if some key combo support would cost a little less.

    My deck now:
    Creatures:
    Jhessian thief
    Spells:
    Turn to frog
    Supports:
    Sunken hollow
    Prairie stream
    Caves of koilos
    Claustrophobia
    Thopter spy network
    Retreat to Coralhelm
    Sphinxes tuteledge
    Dampening pulse

    Before I got TSN the only difference was instead of it I had whirled rogue, so far I'm finding TSN just barely makes it a little faster. Also of note I rarely ever use the 2nd or 3rd abilities they are just too expensive, I draw cards so fast and gain mana very quickly too. I think the second ability should be 10 honestly. IINKabout the 3rd.
