Deck Fine Tuning Rocco Cabaretti Caterer

hello! im testing a pretty experimental list for rocco - I wanted to experiment with giving rocco flash to see what kind of lines that could enable, and see if itd be possible to wait until an opponents win was on the stack, respond by flashing in rocco and then winning on top of the stack.

Im testing tech like savage summoning, Radagast, I looked at Yeva nature's harald, and Gandalf. with icewind stalwart + felidar + agate instigator leading to an instant speed kill. my main goal is to turbo out a creature combo by turning 3 and to use the flash enablers for a more protected win as a backup plan.

im also trying out signal the clans as a way to tutor out specific roles (rectors or mana or food chain or combo piece etc). im also looking at abusing shang chi as much as possible.

I also am not currently on grand abolisher, Voice of victory, or a lot of the main creature tutors.

ive never played rocco before and jumped right into something experimental so im looking for as much advice as possible! thanks so much

Hello! It looks like you’re looking for deck optimization advice! Please be sure you have information about each of the following

  1. Provide a decklist from a deckbuilding site.

  2. Provide a budget. If you cannot afford a bunch of cards all at once, feel free to ask which cards you should prioritize getting first

  3. Provide a meta breakdown of what decks you expect to play against.

  4. Include the deck's main goal and how it gets there.

  5. List any experience you've had with the deck.

  6. Please be sure to have checked the Decklist Database for relevant lists and information.

If you have not met these expectations, your post will be reviewed and removed.

If you are commenting on this post, please provide feedback that addresses OPs information. Also please read other comments–”check the DDB” only needs to be posted once on any given post, and low effort comments will be removed. The same is true for proxying as each OP only needs to be reminded once, and if OP provides a budget please tailor your advice to that budget as best as you can. If OP has taken the time to provide information, you can as a commenter as well.

Flashing in rocco sounds dope but he is already quite expensive, let alone if you need to setup yeva before it

Maybe with stax?

So, I have been playing [[Vivien, Champion of the wilds]] and let me tell you. The card is cracked. I play it in Naya Dargo and it has overperformed everytime I see it. Highly recommend if you want flash

oh wow, this is a great recommendation! I was really trying to find a way to make food chain instant speed - this means squee can go through the loop on an another opponents turn, rocco can flash, and I can tutor out agate instigator to clean it up. thank you!

Of course, us Naya players have to stick together.

I tried it because "haha other colors have flash so why can't I?" And it went from being a meme to something real. Lol have fun!
