Deck Description

Since my first EDH deck was Melek, Izzet Paragon as commander I've decided to go in an entirely different direction and make a creature-heavy deck. After debating between a few different commanders I finally went with Animar on the suggestion of a friend. The key card in this deck is Cloudstone Curio, allowing me to get repeatable casting of my creature spells. Once this card is on the field, and Animar has 3 counters on him, I can generate an infinite amount of mana using any creature with morph.

To protect Animar, I'm running the full suite of indestructible equipment and hexproof/shroud.

Deck discussion for Animar EDH

I like it, but there's a problem. You have a lot of expensive good creatures to cast for cheap with animar, but very few cheap creatures to trigger animar in the first place. I recommend toning down the number of high-powered creatures and adding in a few more cheap, efficient creatures.

Yeah, my friend told me I need to tone down the bombs as well. Any good suggestions for low-cost creatures? Preferably ones that either fetch lands, or at least have useful ETB effects.

Cheap creatures to add could include: Dawntreader elk, any of the mana ramp elves (lanowar elves, arbor elf), maybe blinkmoth nexus as an easy trigger. Spawnwrithe creates copies of itself, and gilder bairn also doubles counters, etc. Things I would take out include: hellkite tyrant, draining whelk, and maybe urabrask.
