I'm definately looking into your suggestions, I really like Crucible of Worlds, and I haven't seen Tooth and Nail before, definately a couple of great suggestions! I'm surprised I hadn't thought of Terra Exapanse and E. Wilds, no real downside to them in the deck, I'll definately be adding those. As with Azusa. :) Thanks for the awesome suggestions

Ahh, so you are rcorrect. Carry on then.
Misty Rainforest won't do anything but hurt you, you need Forest or Island to make it work (as it limits your options to those), unless there's some epic loophole that I don't know about that lets you grab any land that produces those colors of mana.
I will admit that this looks like a pretty fun deck to play with. Also, if this is out of standard you should remove Preordain in favor of Brainstorm. Same cost, better effect. You don't have to scry, you can just throw any 2 cards in your hand back to the top in any order.
Where's my Wall of Blossoms? Its lonely man!
Actually I settled on Darksteel Plate because of the threat of boardwipes against this deck.
Although the Darksteel Plate is very tempting for me as it would aid me with most board wipes. I've never played EDH so I don't know how concerned I should be with Evasion, but I do have Canopy Cover, but perhaps I could swap Canopy Cover with Whispersilk Cloak... I think I'll make that swap due to the re-useability.
I chose Wolfbriar over Master because Master relies on me having Forests, which I swapped out in favor of another suggestion. :3 I did put a lot of consideration into Vigor and Primalcrux though. I still am, but I don't know what I would remove. If you could suggest what to swap for them, it would greatly help.
Also, Pokemon owns.
I like Dread, anything that happens to come through will still die! :D I'd say sideboard a couple.
He's right, no Skullclamp there, but I did catch Protean Hulk. So I'm looking for something to swap that for.. I might go for Sylvan Tutor. And I choose this over Ant Queen because I already have Wolfbriar, which can offer up more/stronger tokens :3 Good suggestion though! And yes, It That Betrays. I was gonna throw that guy in before, but couldn't find any room.. so now that I have room, he gets a slot. I also have Ulamog, I like the huge body he offers, and he lets me destroy a troublesome permanent.. Indestructability is a bonus. Again, thanks for the help. :3
Awesome, thanks for the suggestions but I had a couple already in, and one conflicted with me taking Forests out in favor of Snow-Covered Forest. But a lot of these were great suggestions and I added most of them. :D Big help
Oh, that is clever.. Thanks for that one. :D
Hrmm.. This inspires me to revamp my discard deck~!
Made me smile :D But yea, I'm kinda stuck on the creation.. I'm gonna go to sleep for now. I'll take a look at this tomorrow. Good to see some quick support though. :3
If you already have the fetchlands, then you might as well throw them in :3 A few of my scalding tarns would go great in this deck and E. Wilds would just slow the deck down, granted only a little, but still ;) Uhhh.. this deck looks pretty cool tbh, and most people probably already have the cards to make this deck. I know I do, I might just throw this deck together when I get the chance.
Yea I got a couple of the Crusaders as well, pretty fun card in my infect deck =] I didn't buy a booster box this time around because I was overall fairly disappointed in Besieged (also need to save up some money to get a gift for my girlfriend's birthday coming up), but I did buy 5 packs the other day. Phyrexian Crusader, Phyrexian Hydra, Inkmoth Nexus, Blightsteel Colossus, Sword of Feast and Famine.. Yea, the owner of the store just looked at me a funny look and said "You're not buying anymore packs!" I tend to be very lucky when I decide to buy packs. Another time I bought 3 Scars packs and pulled Elspeth, Koth (foil, that makes 2 foil koths for meeeee!), Wurmcoil Engine, and Mimic Vat (in the foil koth pack). Umm.. All I can really say about the deck is Virulent Swipe, great card for the deathtouch rebounding.. +2/+0 is pretty nice as well when you're factoring in the Infect. I would personally drop the Ichor Rats for a few Swipes. That and I've been on a huge Virulent Swipe kick lately.. been throwing it in all my decks that involve black..
With all your ways to sacrifice you should look into Abyssal Persecutor, and as stated earlier Gatekeeper of Malakir is always good if you run Mortician Beetle in your deck and can be used with your Blade as well.
While Galvanic Blast is a great card, this deck isn't trying to achieve a Metalcraft bonus and I hardly ever get that many artifacts anyway. Lightning Bolt is simply the safer option between the two. If I get a hand full of the 0 drops, I just mulligan because there's no way that hand can stand on its own. The deck loses most of its momentum after about 5 turns anyway, so I really need to make the most of those first 5 turns, but as it stands I rarely mulligan because I can usually land a couple Guides or Thopter/Rebirth in that first hand anyway. Overall, I really enjoy this deck for its capacity to win, though it does have trouble against some decks like GreenDrazi, because of all the chump blockers it tends to drop..
You should just run proxies then, or just switch your Guides when you're not using them.
