TypicalTimmy I'm assuming you've already checked out the rulings, so this is for anyone else with questions.

You can look at face-down cards you control on the battlefield whenever you want to. You can only look at face-down exiled cards if the effect allows you to look at them. Connecting the Dots has this in the reminder text, while Jester's Scepter has the "You may look at those cards" phrase.

From Ethereal Ambush: At any time, you can look at a face-down permanent you control. You can’t look at face-down permanents you don’t control unless an effect allows you to or instructs you to.

From Asmodeus the Archfiend: If a card is exiled face-down and no player has been given permission to look at it, no player is allowed to look at it as long as it remains exiled face-down.

Everybody knows being illiterate is the coolest, but it also means you can't read. This leads to things like putting Broadside Bombardiers into the deck even though Boast is bad poopoo garbage for us. We use good garbage around here!

Swapped out for Connecting the Dots.

In other news, Maskwood Nexus has been very fun, leading to interesting lines and interactions in every game it was played. Best one was against slivers making all my Goblins swole af, and then dodging The Argent Etchings  ^Flipboard wipe because they were Phyrexian Goblins too. I haven't yet grabbed a Purphoros, God of the Forge or a Toralf, God of Fury  ^Flip off of Moggcatcher or Goblin Matron because of the Nexus, but soon!

Of course, I'm glad those recs were to your liking. If you're looking to trim down at your 6 slot a bit more, I think you could probably swap out Etali & Gleam of Battle. I used to play Etali and it felt very boom or bust. The times it popped off were memorable, but more often than not it just sat a turn rotation & ate removal before it could swing.

• Connecting the Dots is something I've been looking at as a kinda Bomat Courier effect for all your creatures. Could be worth for those times you're in topdeck mode.

• The new Agrus Kos, Spirit of Justice is also another 4 drop that could be worth checking out for the removal & politicking. The cool thing about Suspect is that you could technically use it on your own creatures for the Menace evasion.

I'm sure you'll have a blast with this once you have it built in paper. The kind of combats this deck can have once it gets its motors going are a lot of fun
