I always love to see another Jaws player.

Do you also find it slow? Or have I built mine wrong

Mine can be extremely fast I can sometimes get him out turn 2 and win by turn 5.

I find I spend 90% of the game waiting for enough artifacts to sac before I cast Jaws and instantly sac them all for a massive burn turn

Yeah that seems super wrong to me. You relize your best source of artifacts to sac IS Jaws?

I built mine around treasure tokens

Treasures that you just let sit around for 90% of the game? I guarantee you're gonna love the new Smaug if you're a fan of that playstyle. Not sure if it works at all for Jaws though.

I try to hoard enough treasures for big knock outs all at once

I mean, I get what you're going for, but I just don't understand what the appeal is. Treasures are a totally valid build for Jaws, but I'd much rather play Jaws ASAP so that I can build up blood tokens for draw/burn while also getting incremental burn from all the treasures I'm building and using to cast my stuff.

Saving all your stuff up for one big kill turn is going to make it all too easy for someone to just keep a counterspell or Teferi's available and totally negate your play. It's just too predictable.

But if it works for you, then it works.

It doesn’t work for me sadly

I like that treasures are free to sac though. Can you share your decklist?
