Description of deck by its author
(quoted):
...Okay, now for a really funky Cauldron deck
for those of you more interested in engines as opposed to incremental
card advantage.
Obviously, Pestermite gets targeted by the Cauldron,
sacrificed, and comes back into play to untap the Cauldron; sadly, even
with a Juniper Order Ranger in play, you can't do this infinite times,
as the Persist ability’s -1/-1 counter always appears first. What I do
like about Pestermite is its surprise value and a way to combat
anti-graveyard hate; if your opponent is representing Extirpate, flash
out Pestermite end-of-turn and tap down his black source of mana, then
on your turn untap and go off with your Cauldron. While you’ve got the
same sort of Persist shenanigans I talked about last week - Juniper
Order Advocate + Nantuko Husk + Redcap or Finks - this time the Cauldron
(along with Pestermite) opens up your options with Mulldrifter and
protecting the Ranger himself. I also highly recommend Saffi Eriksdotter
as a way to protect Juniper Order Ranger, which some folks have
criticized as being "fragile." While it’s just as vulnerable to
Shriekmaw as the next green or white creature, doesn’t a four toughness
account for anything anymore?
