I am finally trying out an EDH deck with RU together.

UPDATE I think I am going to ignore token-duplicating effects and just play this deck like Mayael, just with Blue for card-drawing. My goals of this deck is to:

• Create infinite mana through Great Whale/Palinchron and then Fireball to faces.
• Cast Animar, Soul of Elements and then dump my hand of small creatures to cast the big fatties. I have some card-drawing mechanics to fix the issue of hand-dumping and having a wrath-effect nullify me. Animar's growth will enable a one-hit kill.
• Token-proliferation effects to overwhelm with creatures/poison.

Deadeye Navigator + Great Whale + Fireball
Deadeye Navigator + Soul of the Harvest = card draw
Aluren + Animar, Soul of Elements + AEther Adept/Man-o'-War = infinite counters
Now, think about Aluren + Animar, Soul of Elements + Cloudstone Curio + Elvish Visionary/Wall of Blossoms! = Draw my entire deck!
