I was gonna say that Gary doesn't belong here. But thinking about it I realized that, assuming no removal, on average he will be draining for 10 when he enters. That's pretty good. So i guess my real question is what is Oona doing here?

fair enough, didn't notice the budget tag. and i would replace . . . Crushing pain. As good as it is it's really late game.

Hmmm. How to break cards with synergy. Well may I ask why it's all 1 of's?

Ok seriously almost every aggro deck i see in modern and legacy uses aether vial (every top tier). This is insane. This universal lynchpin has to be exploitable, like maybe hex parasite or something.

I think you mixed up the numbers of hive stirrings and striking sliver.

No problem Sylvan primoridal is definitely a crushing target for progenitor mimic. With all the mana fetching going on he it will be bonkers. I just like fight hydra because it is either a fatty removal spell or it is so impossibly above the curve that it flattens everything in standard that costs less than 10 with ease.

There are no Blasphemous Acts being committed here. Go directly to jail, do not pass go. Shock is over rated, lightning bolt on the other hand . . .

With the title being what it is I feel like you should have . . . well wrath of god. Simply because you know its "Wrath of God". However that works terribly with the deck.

I hear that. I love the fun cake, which is why I made a modern deck where all i do i fog indiefinitely I call it "Evolving Populations" look it up if your interested. Back to your deck though. I will buy that nykthos can ramp it nicely, it even makes sense. My biggest remaining beef is progenitior mimic. There is only one creature (or 3 depending on how you look at it) that is worth it for him to copy. I feel like you could use some other nice creatures like say the new tribute hydra, for the progenitor to copy. As for what to take out, I would say 1 poulkranos and 1 courser of kruphix. That way there are 2 (5) things that progenitor can copy. Also there aren't many things that can survive fighting a 6/6 and they can only hope to chump block a 12/12 if you don't have Nylea.

Since I'm brainstorming really fast and your not responding quickly, I will continue on with what I was saying. Assuming that you followed my advice and either went with 4 sun zeniths or 3 suns and 3 chords, that opens up 2 spots for something other than creakwood leige. I would start by suggesting Champion of Lambholdt. Excellent fatty that can allow to swing unblocked for game. Another option is eternal witness, which will allow you to recur things like say any green sun zenith that may have been countered or milled. Fertilid can use Counters to ramp you up to ridiculous mana (though since you probably want 3-4 lands in your graveyard mana ramp might not be what your going for). Fleshbag maurader is more sacrifice based removal, always good for a token deck (though he can't be fetched with green sun zenith, he's not green). Necroplasm (if you have a way to put counter on him) allows you to have a controlled boardwipe each turn, also he is dredgible, which means if you need him he can return from the graveyard (though also not green). Psychetrope Thallid will give you card draw so long as you have saporlings. The final 2 recomendations I can make are Splinterfright, a trampling fatty who fills your graveyard (though in this deck I'm not so sure he would work well, as he needs creatures in the graveyard to live and on the third turn its very possible that you won't have any creatures in the graveyard) and somerwald sage, a potent mana ramp creature. The utility creatures really only need to be a one of, also you really only need 1 doomgape as well so that's another card slot open. You may have noticed that I have listed off are all 3 drops (well you probably didn't notice on your first read through, but you would have noticed it). This is so that the deck will work (ideally) as follows.
TURN 1: play terramorphic expanse and fetch a forest or swamp(whichever you don't have in hand). OR: play forest, birds of paradise.
TURN 2: play other land play dark ritual and green sun zenith search for your favorite 3 cost creature whatever is the most helpful against what your facing (maybe if your friends are removal happy throw in some decent 3 drop hexproof onto the list above). OR play land tap all 3 and play underworld connections or whatever 3 drop you might have in hand.
TURN 3: proceed to begin enacting your evil master plan with whatever creature you got the turn before. OR play a land and then play whatever 4 cost thing you have. OR OR save your mana for removal cause you only took a 2 land hand with a dark ritual because your greedy and now you have to play defensive.
Of course this is probably only the first third of my brainstorm. However I will stop here because I don't know if you like the deck I'm describing/ are able to get any of the cards I just mentioned.

Given how anger of the Gods kills your entire deck and exiles the phoenix so it can't come back if tribute wasn't paid, I'm a little wary of it's inclusion. Other than that. . . searing blood is a really nice removal spell, I really would recomend more of it.

Anger of the gods kills everything in your deck, I would highly remocmend you take it out. If you really need a board wipe I would suggest mizzium mortars.

Yeah but you only have 2 prophets. Does it really come out that consistently? also I don't see any draw power in here except for 6 drops. While I can see it working in theory does it actually work out well?

uhh wrong phoenix. This is Chandra's Phoenix it is only a flying haste that has an ability that can only be triggered while it's in the graveyard.

First off if you use 4 green sun zenith, then you can afford to have 1 fewer of every creature in the deck that costs 3 or more and still be able to get them out consistently (though no fewer than 2 of any creature). Also Ivy lane denizen + mycoloth. While not recyclable something to look into is Chord of Calling, which since it is an instant can be cast right before your turn comes up, and should be easy to cast with all the token you use. Like as an example lets say you have 6 token s a birds of paradise, a creakwod liege, and an ivy lane denizen. At the end of their turn tap the 6 tokens and some lands to play chord of calling fetch mycoloth, have him eat the 6 tokens. Then on your turn he brings in 12 friends, ivy lane denizen spreads around 12 counters, then mycoloth swings for massive damage. Actually with 3 zenith and 3 chord of calling the deck should be so consistent that you would only need 2 of any given creature that isn't a 1 drop. Of course that's only the start.

hmmm, well maybe evolving wilds as well. also if your casual enivronment runs with dark ritual (one of the most aggressive and powerful aggro cards ever made), then I can probably think of some stuff.

??? no you can't once the artisan of forms dies it loses all abilities of the card it was copying as a state based effect. I think I just don't understand what you're saying.
