Alright, so I also found: Distortion Strike (with the Rebound it seems similar to your choice of Artful Dodge) and a little spell called Ghostform (which is dumb good) and also Crafty Pathmage! That's an interesting choice I think...let's me just leave it out and continuously set up unblocked creatures, or forces them to use crowd control! Finally, I remembered Marang River Prowler is in there, and I love that card. It does seem a little expensive for 4 copies though..Thoughts?

Wow, Greetings, indeed! I'm super new to constructed, and this site. It's really awesome that you took time to help me out with this. I see the logic with the Aqueous Forms...I actually thought of it at the bar last night. Basically it went: 1. Zone out for a minute while staring at my beer, 2. Girlfriend very very confused as to what I'm doing, 3. Back to reality and: "I know what's wrong with my NINJAS!" She was pissed I was thinking about Magic, but hey...whattaya gonna do? Thanks for the suggestions, I'm going to add them immediately!
50th LIKE! WELL DESERVED, BABY! Now I want a deck to make Bebops and Rocksteadies.....pig people and rhino people hrm....i know there are rhino people already....
Isn't this almost exactly the starter deck they released for the Populate mechanic last year? I only notice growing ranks and a couple others being different....and none of those are all that helpful. Where is Trostani, Selesnya's Voice?! That card should be in this beast.
/nod got it. Thanks for the explanation! I do see that being able to pull out dual lands and use them immediately is key, especially in a deck like this where control of the opponent's hand / the board is so important. Waiting that extra turn to use a mana could be a game losing situation.
So i'm pretty new to the Vault. Also, I guess I feel new to Magic in general even though I played back in the day; the meta game is very alien to me. I just gotta ask, is the super high cost of the deck necessary for some reason or is it just a clever meta joke? Scalding Tarn, for example, seems completely ridiculous to add to the deck, since it's basically just an Evolving Wilds that costs a ton of money and makes you lose life. So....meta joke, or necessarily $700??
