How can you possibly cast the same creature over and over again for free, though? That answer comes in the form of Aluren. Traditionally, Aluren used Cavern Harpy as its primary creature to play and replay, but as more cards have been printed, there are a lot of new choices these days. Martin Goldman-Kirs decided to use Dream Stalker instead of just Cavern Harpy, which is nice because it provides a creature that does not die to Lightning Bolt. But, while you now have infinite bounce and replaying of creatures, you still need a way to win.
Enter Imperial Recruiter. While the Recruiter offers no essential function to the deck, he does allow the deck to reach an entirely different level of consistency. With four Imperial Recruiters, you can more easily find either of your bounce pieces. From here, you proceed to draw your deck using Coiling Oracle plus Cavern Harpy. At some point, you will draw another Recruiter or Parasitic Strix. From here, you continue to bounce your Strix over and over again with Harpy, draining your opponent for 2 with each iteration. Your fist full of countermagic helps ensure that victory is inevitable!
