Hi, It's somewhat of a staple G/B counters deck. However I did add some new additions to it as you can see. The main problem with staple G/B is card draw or card fixing. My main objective is pretty straight forward, get Verdurous Gearhulk out by turn 4 and wreck face. Once I sort out my main picks from sideboard to main I'll add new cards to sideboard and get rid of the others. I'm mainly struggling with switching between Grim Flayer, Scrounging Bandar, Servant of the Conduit, Deathcap Cultivator since I really want to keep Glint-Sleeve Siphoner .I also can't promote Lifecrafter's Bestiary enough.

Energy by attacking with Siphoner is slow that's why I'm trying to add Conduit and some Aether Hub's to the mix.

I was also considering Longtusk Cub which could be a monster in this deck by adding counters on himself, by himself and is a nice combo with Constrictor.

I might create a similiar deck with more energy based creatures.

Should I just get rid of Glint-Sleeve Siphoner alltogether and run bestiary?

I would really appreciate your ideas to optimize this deck as best as I could.
