zachz on Tap 'em Out!

Really enjoy the concept of the deck. I think you have, if you pardon the terrible pun, an untapped potential that can be added to your deck.

Untap mechanics can accelerate your own card tap abilities, and give you the rare opportunity to tap an opponent creature multiple times per turn. There's several that I found worth suggesting:

• Kelpie Guide
• Innocence Kami: More expensive Ballynock Trapper
• Teller of Tales: Faster Innocence Kami in Blue
• Captain of the Mists: You have 13 other humans to utilize
• Deceiver Exarch
• Puppeteer
• Silkbind Faerie
• Stinging Lionfish
• Tideforce Elemental
• Vizier of Tumbling Sands
• Instants:
• Psychic Puppetry
• Dream's Grip
• Reality Spasm
• Toils of Night and Day
• Unwind: More expensive but reimbursed form of Negate
• Enchantments:
• Retreat to Coralhelm
• Curse of Inertia
• Turnabout $
• Hidden Strings is a Sorcery but deserves to be included
• Artifacts:
• Unbender Tine
• Puppet Strings
• Magewright's Stone$
• Maze of Ith $ a Land but gives untap for both your creatures and opponents.

Hey, thanks for your statement. I really like the three Bakus, they actually did some serious work in this deck, but to get to that first damn counter on them, you need a decent amount of spirit/arcane spells in the deck. Good thing is that some of them you'd probably run anyway, like Kodama's Reach or Dimir Infiltrator, and funnily enough, Teller of Tales is highly synergistic with Bairn.

So even if it might be a bit too cute, this is exactly how I want it. But feel free to make it your own and don't forget to show us what you've done with it! :)

...or just Teller of Tales for more budget/simpler combo with Evermind

apologies for spam...

ninjaclevs13 is nothing more than a Teller of Tales. Believe not his Deception. His tale reeks of Tragic Arrogance. Expect nothing but Betrayal from him, as he is the Painbringer!
