you should try adding temple bell in for some card drawing. it works well with all those discard mechanism you'll have lying around in your hand when your opponent have no hands. i tested it a few times with my discard deck and it does great. look at my discard deck and tell me what you think!

i just join the website a few weeks ago and i notice a few of your many decks and from what i've seen all of the decks was well made..oh and yeah congrats on reaching 100! now on to business
1. my favorite card would be Ink eyes! (Arcanis should be a close second)
2. what mechanic in magic that you like most? and what was the best combo you ever discover on your own?
3. i love cheap decks that work!

i have the same problem and i'm broke most of the time too. you just have to find a way around the price tag of good cards. here's what you can do;
1.find a cheaper substitute that is almost as good.
2.look for good commons/uncommons to boost your deck.
3.build a deck uses cards you already own and tune up with cheap cards.
4.don't buy unnecessary cards, you can always look up to gatherer to find card that suits your deck best and try it with a proxy and see if it actually helps your deck. if it does then you can buy it

there's alot of cheap and good deck floating around in mtgvault to inspire from...

try wooded foothills it reduce the number of forest or mountain in your deck (so the deck should contains, only 1 forest, 1 mountain and 2 wooded foothills). but just like dknight27 said you need glimpse of nature in your 1st hand to actually pull this of..very impressed with the combo though never thought of it before...

lol 198 eldrazi spells...btw if 99 emrakul is cast does that means you get 99 extra turn? and i don't see the need of 99 kozilek because it will trigger the draw 4 cards abilities before any legend rules put them into the graveyard (i think) and you will lose because you will not be able to draw the cards because you ran out of your library (99x4= 396)....and really, 15 eldrazi spells is enough to win you the game. According to what i heard, any cards that says 'cards you own from outside the game' refers to your sideboard or any card exiled during gameplay (for sanction tournament in my place)
Btw, I lol-ed nice deck!

try making it two color instead of three and squeeze in more 4's instead of 1's and 2's. it'll improve the stability of the deck. i would either go with UB for proliferate/infect or GB for pump/infect.

lilianna vess and titan is too expansive for me. and so is vapors.as for gatekeeper i can't pay the kicker cost with mimic. brittle effigy is exile target creature and it doesn't work with mimic vat as well.
this deck is made with budget 1st quality 2nd. so what i was aiming for is to try making it the best it can be without having to pour a lot of money to it. if you have any cheap cards for suggestion i'm all ears..

eldrazi monument is for the side board because black carry consume the meek and others have rachet in their sideboard most of the time so you need to sideboard in the monument to counter mass removal. don't really think its needed on the mainboard as your deck is pretty solid!
ps:look at my decks and tell me your opinion too!

i love budget deck and and love it more that its mono colored. another fun combo with mimic vat is precursor golem and you'll get two golem per turn! and with all those black mana and artifact you should consider adding phylactery lich. i think he'll work well with all those artifact to hold his soul..

a friend of mine also came to the fnm with a deck close to this one and got two wins out of three games. to yorgos1 he won on 3rd turn with an infect creature dealing 10 poison counter with one attack (my friend did this mostly with plague stinger and a combination of either giant growth,groundswell and vines)
pretty good for a budget deck

thanks for the comment really appreciate it. built the deck just for the fun of stealing cards from the opponent =P but what you said makes sense. the plan was to put elves in 1st turn and maybe harrow or explore on turn two to start stealing from turn three..the owl was just there for the scry ability and as a means to carry snake umbra..maybe i'll tweak the deck to be more playable if i see the right cards..owh and spreading seas if just to make the opponent land screw in the early game and to control man land..haha i know its kinda funny

goblin gaveleer fits perfect in this deck i suggest 4 of em and livewire lash is better than echo circlet as it gives +2 to power and can also shoot your opponent.heat ray n flame slash should be replace with better burner such as galvanic blast (u can get the metalcraft with all those equipment i think) and your good to go
