The end game on this deck is to swing wide and high, and prevent the opponent from building by using heavy removal. Corpsejack Menace works well with partners like Nissa, Drana, Scrounging Bandar, and Bioshift. Since the deck includes mana rampers to speed up getting out the big players, I often find myself playing out my hand. I would like to include more draw power, but I added Genesis hydra to take advantage of having high mama power and to give the deck the ability to go fishing for other key cards. I called this deck combat tricks because often, I end up finishing the game with a swinging Birds of Paradise while swinging also with heavy hitters. Once blocks are declared, I tap one green and Bioshift my heaviest hitter's counters onto the Bird. If I have Corpsejack, they double and the game is essentially over.
