Update to previous build. In an attempt to bring the deck to the next level, I wanted to focus more on counters, proliferation, and increase removal/answers to opponents. I focused on having more ramp to shoot ahead and grab spells. Turn one Birds or Deathrite gets me to three mana on T2, Gyre sage or voyaging satyr or farseek gets me to 4 mana on T3 and so on. Added removal, X cost spells to play early, or scale up big. more interactions with losing creatures but keeping counters, Herald of Seacret Streams is an absolute bombshell that wins for low cost, or at least nets lifelink gains. Problems with all of this, as you can see, the deck contains too many cards. The necessary cuts are beyond me. Looking to keep synergy, but goodstuff cant be overlooked easily.
