Add Akroma's Memorial and I'm pretty sure you win.

It just happened to me for the first time last night. It wouldn;t be so bad if you were required to explain yourself instead of anonymously bashing someone like a coward.
You really, really, REALLY need to take most of the cards out of this deck. Find the angle you want to take to win and then only use those cards. The rule of thumb is that the less colors you have and the more copies of cards you run, the better you do. Tell us what it is you want to accomplish with this deck and we'll be better able to advise you.
I would say yes, but this deck relies on tokens for sacrificing and chump blockers.
The decks I build are only for casual, and my friends and I decided long ago that we could pack more Magic into one night if we ignored the legend rule. I said in the deck description that I would like to trade out Form of the Dragon. It does help a lot when the game gets into turn 7 or 8 and starts slowing down. It's pretty much its own win condition. Loxodon and Vampiric combo up with Sanguine Bond. If I'm playing against three players and use Hidetsugu, that's around 40 damage, I gain that much life, and someone else loses that much life. Sounds like a Life Gain deck killer to me...
Nice. I have a deck very similar to this that uses Crucible of Worlds and Squandered Resources. This one is way better, though.
Another combo I use in my treefolk deck is Reach of Branches and Recross Paths. You gain life with Orchard Warden, get a 2/5 and a forest, Dauntless gets an aditional +2/+2, and you most likely get Recross Paths back because of the astronomical costs of Treefolk.
Unstoppable Ash + Doran the Siege Tower = unstoppable. And you wouldn't even need to change your lands with Leaf-Crowned.
I must admit that you inspire me to make a similar deck using your landfall combo. In mine, I used Sanguine Bond, Essence Warden, and Deathgreeter to thrash their life directly. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=32460
No Wound Reflection? No Hidetsugu's Second Rite?
Sorry. Not Urza's Incubator (I was thinking of Urza's Filter). I meant Cloud Key. Stone Calendar, or Stonescape Familiar would also work.
But there are much better cards. Urza's Incubator or Blood Funnel, for instance.
The Medallion makes Sprout Swarm cost 1 green. If you had two Medallions out, the second would reduce the buyback cost because it's an additional cost to play the spell. It would also work for kicker costs. In combination with Chorus of the Conclave, it would allow you to put a "free" +1/+1 counter on a creature as you play it.
Ludicrous... I love it.
Thanks for voting this down just to take it off the top rated list you faggots.
I like it a lot. You have m thinking of ways to turn it to a multiplayer advantage. Maybe Minion Reflector?
Whay Karma, Jamesgrim? I have to use swamps...
Sorry I blew up, but I did sate in the deck description that this was a CASUAL deck. 21 lands is PLENTY. My friends and I play 3-5 playere free for all, so my decks will differ a bit from dtraight 1 v 1 decks. Angelic Benediction is to add exalted. A lot of my friends decks rely heavily on creatures that tap, and tapping said creature helps a lot. Especially when they end their chump creatures at 3 players during their turn and leave a good blocker open. Tap the blocker and voila... The point f the deck is to pump up one creature to attack and have that creature gain you life. Sanguine Bond is the card that wins for this deck. You must remember that the maguc I play relies soooooooo much more on luck of the draw as opposed to straight Tourney Magic. It's a reactionary game as opposed to a straight offensive one.
I still recommend Chorus of the Conclave. As for other big'uns, Avatar of Might, Godsire, Iona, Myojin of Life's Web, Patron of the Orochi, Verdant Force, and Windbrisk Raptor would all ROCK!
Uh, no and no. Those enchantments help the deck run, and I have NEVER needed more than 20 lands in a 40 card deck. You're a moron if you're the one that thumbed this deck down.
