Copycat, also known as Saheeli Twin or simply Saheeli, is a two-card combo deck currently played in Standard. Copycat decks use the interaction of Saheeli Rai and Felidar Guardian to win the game by attacking with an arbitrarily large number of token creatures. The deck comes in Jeskai.

Stragety

When Saheeli Rai's second loyalty ability is used to create a token copy of Felidar Guardian with haste, that token's triggered ability may be used to flicker Saheeli Rai. Saheeli enters the battlefield as a new object with three loyalty counters, so her second loyalty ability may be used once again to create another token copy. This process is repeated an arbitrarily large number of times, creating enough tokens to attack that same turn for lethal combat damage.[1]

Counter-strategies

A variety of cards can be used to prevent one's opponent from winning with the Copycat combo.
