Thopter Depths Two major combos saw play for a while in formats like Extended with the Vampire Hexmage and Dark Depths combo (giving you a 20/20 indestructible, flying Marit Lage beater on the turn you played Vampire Hexmage) or the Sword of the Meek and Thopter Foundry combo engine that made a ton of 1/1 blue Thopters

Many of these lists still work in cEDH pods

A single Surgical Extraction isnt going to be too effective, so Id steer clear of this one outside of blue decks, but its a great option for them, especially because the harder graveyard hate messes with Snapcaster Mage
