Legacy Thought Lash deck

UPDATED MARCH/2022
Thought Lash is a combo deck that has seen some play in the past with the usage of <c>Laboratory Maniac</c>, but the strategy made became even more powerful with the printing of <c>Thassa's Oracle</c>.
Because of that, the deck is also known as Thassa's Oracle Combo, Thought Oracle or Thassa's Lash
==Overview==
It is a combo deck.
However, since <c>Thassa's Oracle</c> is a Merfolk and all combo pieces are Blue, the strategy became an alternate win condition in some Merfolks decks - the implementation did not require much deckbuilding efford and major concessions.
Even though the main win condition of the deck is <c>Thassa's Oracle</c>, the player may also win woth <c>Jace, Wielder of Mysteries</c> and <c>Laboratory Maniac</c>.
<c>Paradigm Shift</c> is a card that operates similarly to <c>Thought Lash</c>. It contributes to the self-mill plan and is also in Blue. <c>Paradigm Shift</c> is often preferred by Merfolks' players instead of <c>Thought Lash</c> for their alternate win condition.
The deck is mostly found in Mono-Blue, but it can also be found splashing White. With Blue, it has access to <c>Force of Will</c> for protection.
The deck itself requires the usage of a couple Reserved List cards: <c>Thought Lash</c> and <c>Paradigm Shift</c>. While they are not hard-to-acquire cards compared to old duals, they may face the same issue Reserved List cards tend to face in the future (scarcity and becoming hard-to acquire).
Therefore the deck is partially welcoming to budget-limited players since Reserved List cards tend to spike in price over time.
