This is a lot like what I was expecting, but with Dismember in place of PtE, and Wildwood instead of a second Canopy. I like it a lot, but it sadly solidifies my choice to switch to Over-Extended :/

I sometimes go on kicks where I'll play my guitar every second I can, and that was actually one of the shorter kicks I've had. I've been trying to get a certain sound that has been in my head for a while, and managed to stick it with some creative use of Wah and a Flanger. Also, this deck is going to be nowhere near as powerful once the ban on Misstep comes into effect. But I will at least be able to reasonably tinker with Doomsday again :D/D:
The idea is that the bulk of my fetches can fetch a Dryad Arbor for ease of using Natural Order, it makes life simpler, hence caveman lol.
I recall seeing several Storm decks such as this, and they are surprisingly usable for a budget deck. This is one of the better versions of it I have seen, and seeing Death Wish again makes me think of the beast of a Vintage deck that was LongDeath. I wonder though, perhaps Ad Nauseam could help to stabilize the deck?
@_@ Kormus Bell with Linvala and Urborg.... Holy crap that is mean! Hanna is a great choice, thanks Dag! I probably actually won't update this though, as I dislike working with EDH in both paper, and data forms.
Well two of them like legacy, but only one of them likes stax effects :/
Well they don't like Braids or any form of Stax effect at all, so they decided to keep that one :/ Other than Rofellos the only general I think is stupidly powerful is the thankfully banned Kokusho.
It might be because you got them from Alpha, those usually go for a sight more than the rest.
Breach Post is superior to mono-green in my opinion, it doesn't have as much an uphill battle to some of the more popular decks I've found. This list is exceptionally good, I think the only thing I would change is perhaps losing one of the Zenith's for a Pridemage. It's been rather as a one or two of I've found.
Oh wow... THIS kind of deck right here is why I think they should lift the ban on Braids
This is one of the most hilarious(yet expensive) casual decks I've ever seen!
I'm with Ethan on the landbase line of thought, except I don't know how to run a deck with that many lands, except XX-Lands. I think my favourite part of this deck is the random Spellskites.
In Aggro-Control Inquisition is generally accepted as the better choice than Ponder. It's absolutely amazing against UR Combo, and can hit pretty much anything in all forms of Zoo. I really like the design Joe, it seems like this should give some hell.
It's like a cross between a Lamprey, and what one can only assume to be H. P. Lovecraft's wet dreams. In Dredge it trades LED's mana production for multiple uses, and being able to select what you want to discard instead of just chucking that precious Firestorm to hell :D I was suggested to try it out, and have been enjoying increased results having it as a pseudo-engine as opposed to Tireless Tribe. The one problem I've found so far with it is that it isn't' quite as user friendly as Tribe or LED, and misuse has cost me games sadly. LED is simpler in use, because it's all in when you crack it, and because you can leave it where it lay when Dredging around hate.
It does my heart good to see a cleric deck NOT involving Splinter Twin or Kiki-Jiki in any shape or form... That has been one of my least favourite decks in Modern so far, being even more kin to standard and extended than Ascension Storm... All in all this is pretty neat Sure, and I have to say that the card True Believer is absolutely freaking hilarious. Only thing I can think of for the deck is that some added hand disruption seems welcome.
Hatred has always been fun.
Tron style control slaver is pretty hilarious, but in Modern it oddly enough works. I've found that control slaver is DEVASTATING in this format, and has torn most of the tier 1 decks into shreds. So far the worst MU's are Zoo(derp), and UR Ascension decks, the latter of which I found slightly surprising. If they unbanned Ancestral Visions and Misstep, I would be even more in love with Control Slaver.
I'm guessing by the desire for consistency you mean Wall of Omens? If so, it was good in eight post during that period, so I guess it could be good in twelve. If you mean a different wall I'm clueless. I'm interested in Painter in post decks, it sounds like it could be a rather amusing stall in the mirror.
Ah how I love using Riptide Laboratory with Spellstutter Sprite, I used to run that trick in my Fish deck, and it won me a surprising amount of games. Some cards I suggest looking into getting are Brainstorm, Daze, Vendilion Clique, and Cursecatcher. They all support the cause of blue control-y goodness, and can make games go quite well. If you're willing to splash black, Bitterblossom is amaaazing, as is Thoughtseize. I'll be capable of doing more than naming staples in a bit(hopefully), I've been a bit out of it today.
Iona in Twelve Post is interesting, and will indeed give you matches which would otherwise be lost. I find it interesting that you also chose to include Painter's Servant for the lockdown combo, I wholeheartedly support this motion. Overall your list is a great ramp list, with a great amount of consistency. Especially if you manage an entwined Tooth and Nail, where if it resolves I think I'd probably wind up scooping. One piece of tech that I find quizzical is Flame-Kin Zealot, what purpose does it really serve? If you T&N out an Emrakul I assume?
