this is just an idea I have been toying around with and would love some opinions and suggestions to better optimize this against the current meta.

The basic premise is to pump out as many creature as possible while trying to control the tempo with cards like Supreme Will + Unsummon

There is a lot of hand acceleration in order to create a larger board presence and hopefully further enable Tishana, Voice of Thunder as another potential win condition.

I think my worst match-up with vs deck with a lot of fast heavy hitters so I have tried to tailor my sideboard to a little more tempo control.
