I would suggest moving your commander to the sideboard, makes it easier to find her. also you should definitely consider Ugin and Karn for this list, maybe consecrated sphix and the Titans as well. also Worldfire is banned in EDH, just so you know.

went with an extra courser over the monastery siege, and the boardwipes and spot removal were why I was considering the stubborn denials, but i think negate may be better. personally i've never been a big fan of swansong, didn't like giving my opponent something that could end up being the reason i lost later (the 2/2 flyer).
Yeah, I suppose control really isn't the right descriptor for the deck, the bit that I'm running is predominately to ensure that my combo pieces survive (the stubborn denials being that bit). Everything else is primarily ramp and card draw to accelerate as fast as possible to the combo.Perhaps two Dig Through Times, an extra Monastery Siege, and an extra Frontier Siege instead of the stubborn denials?
Feedback is always welcome and appreciated
sandsteppe will actually get the control quite frequently if you can bounce him each turn. See Sage of Hours+Sandsteppe Mastodon+Temur Sabertooth
yeah, can't do anything about that short of countering it
well, this deck does have heavily similar themes to the whip decks currently seeing play, since they all want very specific creatures in the yard to play with. this wants certain creature(s) in the yard to delve to the soulflayerand i would definitely push siege over ascendancy, it's waaaay more powerful
This is almost playable... I like it. Granted any excuse to run chromanticore is a good one. I would recommend dropping the the sultai ascendancies and adding a monastery siege. Then drop the tasigur's and put in 3 sagu mauler's (fatties and give soul flayer access to hexproof and trample in one card). I'm not entirely sure that reality shift will be better than murderous cut, so you might want to at least put cut on sideboard. And Commune with the Gods should probably be replaced with Satyr Wayfinder, which can get you lands and be a chump blocker afterwords. I would also recommend considering Rattleclaw Mystics to help with mana fixing.So important bits of that...-2 sultai ascendancy+1 monastery siege-2 Tasigur, the Golden Fang+3 Sagu MaulerThings to consider: Satyr Wayfinder, Rattleclaw Mystic, Murderous Cut
i actually run it in a few of my other decks, i just managed to forget about it somehow lol
good idea on the pridemate, replacing holy day with 4 of those now
you should do dragon tribal for red, can be surprisingly affordable if you're not trying to do dragonstorm combofor example...http://www.mtgvault.com/pain42/decks/budget-dragon-tribal/also, if you're interestedhttp://www.mtgvault.com/pain42/decks/budget-pillowfunfort/
Would recommed dropping the Generator Servants for Elvish Mystics. Prognostic Sphinx instead of Master of Predicaments, and possibly stubborn denial or savage punches instead of temur charm. Also you should definitely put in temur runemark instead of awaken the bear once the site updates in a few days since temur runemark is in FRF
The commander of an EDH deck is always a legendary creature (or one of the five planeswalkers that were just printed specifically for the purpose of being commanders), generally in the decks on this site the commander is put into the sideboard to make it stand out from the rest of the deck, which is the case here.
if you're gonna run selective memory you've gotta run mana severance too man
yeah daybreak is great but my wallet really is not a fan of that pricetag, so i went with angelic destiny for my big drop instead, since it's a little more reasonable and recurs itself
so perhaps switch out the aura gnarlids for silhana ledgewalkers, and swap out alpha authority for spirit mantle?
x is whatever you want it to be
you don't play a creature infinite times, you play astral cornucopia or briber's purse infinite times.jeskai ascendancy does all the untapping you need, that's sorta the way these decks work, jeskai ascendancy on the field is meant to equal winning the game
You should replace Siege Dragon with Balefire Dragon, and take out Chandra, Stormbreath, slumbering dragon, and Zirilan for 4 Scourge of Valkas, I would switch the door of destinies for another crucible of fire, switch the dragon's eggs for 4 dragon hatchling, and swap chandra's phoenix for another archwing dragon or some other acceleration of some sort, so geosurge, desperate ritual, pyretic ritual, rite of flame, etc.also HIGHLY recommend utvara hellkite, maybe instead of thundermaw or hellkite charger?
Awesome job man! I really like how it turned out! Good idea using Scourge of Skola Vale as a backup win-con, i never would have thought of that, and thanks for giving the idea a shot for me :)
