Added Kozilek, Butcher of Truth & Solemn Simulacrum.. Subtracted Acidic Slime & Thopter Assembly..

Punmonkey: Some solid suggestions!! I'm definitely considering Primordial Sage, although its ability is triggered by casting instead. Not that my deck relies to heavily on just flicker, though. So, yeah, worth considering... Not sure about Wood Elves and Silverglade Elemental in this build since Sylvan Ranger and Solemn Simulacrum will likely be covering their purpose. I'd also prefer that Elemental Bond were a creature. So, it's a big maybe.

Agreed, in this build Soul of the Harvest is a better effect than the Primordial Sage, but still you've got to cast them in most cases before you can flicker so getting that extra card is nice.

I really only like the Wood Elves and Silverglade Elemental because they let you put the forest into play untapped, but it works better with the dual lands, so I absolutely understand why you wouldn't put them into the deck.

In retrospect I'm thinking of pulling out Elemental Bond from my build as well. I'm finding that unless I'm able to get it into play early it tends to slow me down. When the timing is right it absolutely is a great add, but in testing the timing isn't right as often as I'd like it to be.

Best of luck with the deck!

I would put in Edric, Spymaster of Trest and Cloudstone Curio which are both awesome cards in Animar.
