WOW! Thank you I really needed to see some of those cards. I completely missed Izzet charm and Blast of Genius. I don't often play anything burn or control. Thank you so much!

I am not sure how that makes it more resilient to removal. How would I use it to do that? I would be happy to do so, but yeah how?

Thanks, you have to get people to look at it somehow right?

Here is the Temur version I had talked about before. However I really like the fling suggestion that cainthesinner676 suggested.

However for tokens I am using Xenagos and Awakening zone.

What about replacing the Madrush Cyclops with Temur Ascendancy, it hits the field sooner, grants haste, increases your draw, and drops black from your mana needs.

Next, I would add Jalira, Master Polymorphist. She can be played sooner than your mass polymorph, and can be used turn after turn to recycle your worldspine wurm.

Also, I think Xenagos, the Reveler would have place in a deck like this but I don't know what to take out to replace it.

Overall I really like the deck. I am going to try remaking as a Temur deck though that splashes white.

I took out the Gitaxian probes in favor of Inkmoth Nexus which I had completely forgotten about. I would like to remove them completely to add another card that performs the same as simian spirit guide, granting a single mana to start the turn.

Street Wraith doesn't do anything towards the main goal of the deck. It would require me to add a source of black mana to play it, unless I only use the cycling ability. But for that Gitaxian probe is better as I get another benefit from it.

I reworked the deck as G/R so that it is possible to get a T1 win going first. Still rare. The combo does require 8 cards, however one of the cards pulls double duty drawing a card and grants a normal infect creature haste.

The main idea being instead of enchanting a haste creature to have infect, give a creature with infect (glistener elf) haste then pump. The removal of black makes it much easier to manage the mana, and gives you access to 1drop +4/+4 spells.

This deck looks like a lot of fun. The only additions I would think of making would be glissa, the traitor or either of the Tezzeret Planeswalkers. Both of which don't really fit your mana base though.

I like the stompy concept of this. However, instead of force away, I would look at playing vortex elemental. I believe you will end up with greater long term card advantage that way.

Also, I would look at akroan crusader. You have a grand total of 6 spells that you might target with it, but that's highly unlikely. I would look at other options for the 1 drop spot.

With so many cards interacting with the +1/+1 counters, either Ajani, Steadfast or mentor of heroes would do well in this deck.

I like the deck a lot. I would consider a setessan battlepriest or two in the sideboard incase you need some lifegain.

The infinite mana, is that from having at least a devotion of 7 to green and, Thassa's ire, market festival, and an untapper in play?

It all depends on what you mean by worth putting together. Could it be a decent deck and win a good number of games with your friends or FNM? It can do that. Do I think it could win you MTG regional tournaments, I doubt it, at least not without many hours of play testing.

I think it looks like a fun deck to play with. Do I think it is $250+ dollars worth of fun? No.

I would suggest looking at Bloodghast, everytime you lay a land it can return to the battlefield, giving you something to sacrifice on most turns.

Blade of the bloodchief would allow you to pump a creature with many +1/+1 counters.

Also maybe look at viscera seer or Bloodflow Connoisseur, for other more productive things to sacrifice with.

I am also looking at playing a similar concept. If you wouldn't mind taking a look and commenting it would be appreciated.

I agree that is a problem with garruk. I have a little bit of a man crush on him. Other than Phenax he is the only thing that is being played with a cmc >4. (Nemesis should be played for 3 or less and Murderous Cut will also be played for much less.)

How would nyx weaver interact with sultai ascendancy? I avoided it for that reason. Am I able to choose which occurs first, my "scrying" or the discard? What I liked about Sultai Ascendancy is that it allowed me to choose what was happening.

Also, for Epyc, I have found that I have plenty to exile that are not creatures. So I am giving it a shot.

After looking at comments and being wiling to invest a little more in the deck I have made the following changes:

4x Rageclaw mystic --> 4x Sylvan Caryatid
3x Bassara Tower Archer --> 3x dissipate
3x Despise --> 3x murderous Cut (there are plenty of things to exile that aren't creatures)

I moved towards having a little greater control and removal at the suggestion of others.

I think I am getting closer to having the deck fairly well laid out and I look forward to testing it. However I am concerned about not having enough creatures to stuff in the graveyard.

Phenax feeds nighthowler, but it allows me to tap satyrs and other creatures to place the top card of my library in my graveyard and reveal the card below it, aiming to have a land on the top of my deck. If I send a creature to the graveyard I am better off for it.

For removal, I have found sultai charm and Garruk to be enough card specific removal. The 3/3 beasts with deathtouch have done a good job keeping opponents in check.

I will definitely look at taigam's Schemeing.
