Character Background
Idris, Soul of the TARDIS reads like a narrative of a human briefly piloting a machine: when she enters she steals an artifact’s toolkit and balloons by its mana value, then vanishes after three turns. That design makes her strongest in tempo/value or toolbox combo shells rather than pure aggro or long-term control—she’s a timed, flexible threat that wins windows of advantage. Build around artifacts with meaningful activated or repeatable triggered text (large value artifacts for a big +X/+X or mana-rocks/signets for immediate utility), and include artifact tutors and recursion to reliably fetch and reuse targets; cards like Fabricate-style tutors or blink effects let you change or protect your imprint. Be mindful that vanishing forces front-loading your plays: prioritize artifacts whose abilities you can exploit immediately (mana production, damage engines, or repeatable card advantage) and keep slot for interaction to protect Idris during those three turns. As a legendary Izzet tool she rewards careful sequencing and proactive deck construction.
