You know, I totally forgot about Conduit. Now that you mention it. Running it as at least a 2-of in place of Oblivion Sower and something else seems like a solid idea.

Hey man, thanks for the feedback! I totally didn't even think of chromatic latern. Kinda silly in hindsight.

Yeah, I was on the fence about using Top initially, but I don't think it has enough to interact with in this deck. I agree with you here too, just dropped Terminus for Eviction.

Dissipate and Utter End are two spells I was definitely on the fence about while building this list. I guess that Utter End's flexibility probably makes it the better choice. Also, now that you say it, exile sounds a ton better than a little burn in an EDH game.

I totally didn't think of Tolaria West. It's in. Without question.

Also, no Sovereign or Sanguine cuz I'm not about to be that guy. Running Oloro is mean enough. :)

Yeah, it was a bit off kilter last time since I was missing some spreading seas and vapor snags.

That said, I'm constantly tweaking the list by one or two cards at a time. I'm currently debating:
Main:
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Mana Leak
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Cavern of Souls
1x Island -> 1x Cavern of Souls
Side:
1x Thassa -> 1x Tidebinder
3x Echoing Truth -> 3x Vapor Snag

Thassa's ok and all, but if I'm in a situation where I need the scry to fuel my action, that tends to mean that the deck has already busted that game. The Echoing Truth vs. Vapor Snag issue really seems to come down to local meta. Vapor Snag is almost always useless, but Echoing Truth is perfect for busting America Tokens.

If not that, then another thought I'm having is:
Main:
2x Kira -> 2x Spellskite
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Phantasmal Image
1x Master of Waves -> 1x Phantasmal Image
2x Island -> 2x Cavern of Souls
Side:
2x Echoing Truth -> 2x Kira
1x Echoing Truth -> 1x Vapor Snag
1x Thassa -> 1x Chalice of the Void
1x Swan Song -> 1x Chalice of the Void=
2x Swan Song -> 2x Spell Pierce

Oh man, I love this deck. Honestly, I'd mainboard 4 Giant Growth/Brute Force, although Vines of Vastwood is a good substitute too.

Also, any reason why there's no removal at all? I think that Wild Slash would be amazing since some creatures in this deck already meet the Ferocious requirement and the others can Bloodrush to meet the requirement pre-combat anyway.

Regardless, this deck looks awesome!

I'm glad you like it! I love the looks I get when I finish the ramp and instead of dropping into fat creatures, I drop an Omen and Portal a Door and then it dawns on my opponent what's going to happen next turn.
