Alright everyone, looking for a little critique on my current build. I have gotten some pointed comments about my usual deck at my LGS, Karlov Lifegain, and wanted to make a more casual deck.

I decided to go Hallar kicker-tribal with an elf sub-theme for mana generation into the kicker spells. Late game this can be channeled into one of the 2 X spells, with Molten Disaster being slightly better due to Split Second.

I want it to be able to win, but not as oppressive as using Karlov to exile everyone's boards and punching in the face or fishbowling then to death.

Sidenote: I have considered putting in Grafted Exoskeleton and Triumph of the Hordes , currently choosing not to as I feel it will get some hate at the store.

Edits: Playtesting at the LGS has lead me to the conclusion that the sub-elf theme, while goodw hen it works, does nothing for the core theme of the deck and often just ends up being more dead cards on board. Swapping out most of the Mana/Tribal based elves for more +1/+1 counters and some card draw.
