Hi there,

This is a deck I have been working on, the whole thing was meant to be built around the Bazaar of Wonders.  And originally, I had planned to use only blue mana; an idea I'd like to get back too, but I don't think its possible. 

It's been a real headache though actually, finding cards that work well with it is proving difficult.  And there's so little advice or information out there about this card and different strategies that work well with it.  So, I did my best to start from scratch.

The basic idea was to use the Temporal Adepts in order to return the Bazaar to my hand during my turn if I need to play a creature or artifact that I already have in play.  The idea was to remove it to my hand, play the duplicate card, and then at the end of my turn put the Bazaar back into play.  Originally, I also had an Ertai, Wizard Adept and Arcane Lab to slow down my enemies spell casting even more. 

The idea there was to use the Temporal Adepts to remove both the Bazaar and Arcane Lab during my turn, play my spells and any necessary duplicates and then return the Bazaar and Lab into play.  But then I realized how much mana this would require.  I felt like there weren't enough ways for me to win and now I'm thinking about including a Forsaken Wastes and Pestilence in order to deplete the life of my opponents as quickly as possible, but only after I use spells like Drain Life to get my life way up and theirs way down, so that they just can't win while Forsaken Wastes is in play. 

And then I gave Underworld Dreams a thought.  I just really am confused and I think I am making it much more difficult than it has to be, I haven't made a deck in a long time or played much recently so this is probably just making it worse.

Further more, I wanted to use Withered Wretch of Scrabbling Claws to remove spells from my graveyard whenever necessary in order to make sure the duplicate spells or whatever wouldn't get countered when I wanted to play it during an opponents turn.

This is the deck as I have it now with the inclusion of a couple cards will still need to get a hold of.  I would really like it for you to take a crack at making this deck more workeable.  Change anything, please, I love the whole Bazaar of Wonders thing, I just am extremely unsure of how to make it work well for me.  I realize the deck needs to be slimmed down quite a bit and I am open to any suggestions you have as long as the Bazaar remains the center piece of the deck if possible.

First of all, the Bazaar has a little quirk to it that's easy to miss.  Technically, it's not just an enchantment, it's a "World Enchantment".  See, "Enchant World" isn't just the global equivalent of "Enchant Creature".  "World" is now a supertype, like Legendary.  And the "World rule" is that only one World permanent can be in play at a time.  If a second one comes into play, it replaces the first.  Sort of like a "home turf advantage".  The problem is that Forsaken Wastes is also World, meaning if you played one and tried to play another, the second would replace the first.  Having multiple World Enchantments isn't great, unless you intend specifically to use one to get the other out of play.  Since that doesn't seem to be the point of Forsaken Wastes, I suggest removing the Wastes.  With it gone, Pestilence can go too.
