If Quantum Riddler is your jam, but blink decks are not, consider checking on some Froggler...? Friddler...? Quantum Frog??? I don't know, it's Dimir Frog with Riddler and it's good.

Esper T3fTide had a solid first run, coming in 11th in the modern challenge (5-2 overall). Both losses to Boros, while picking up wins against a third Boros, Jeskai Control, Simic Ritual, Grixis Reanimator, and Dimir Oculus. I missed Bowmasters.

Split the finals of a 2 slot local RCQ with Dimir FrogTide. Lost to Orzhov round 1, in to a bye round 2, before going on a tear of beating amulet, the dimirror, broodscale, ID round 6, and winning the orzhov rematch and another titan in top 8. Verdict: Play Frog.
