interactions:

Saving Grasp + Fiend Hunter/Leonin Relic-Warder = perm exile of target

Cloudshift/Restoration Angel + Fiend Hunter/Leonin Relic-Warder = perm exile of first target and the ability to get a second target exiled by the creature.

venser and the flickers effects allow you to play Fiend Hunter and relic warder freely outside the combo because his blink will allow you to use the instant speed cards to perm exile a new target.

ways to win:

1.venser emblem 2. mass overrun with blade splicer and blink/flicker effects 3.mass exile all the potent creatures and artifacts and just slowly chip them away with your small creatures.

the deck doesnt mind wiping the board with day since Moorland Haunt can make use of your creatures once they are in your grave, and the deck plays enough creatures that you can hold on to a few if you know a wipe is eminent. Gideon Jura also allows recovering from a board wipe incredibly easy, and will buy you the turns that you need to get some kind of combo working again.

possible changes to be made in the future:

in the future, Blade Splicer may become Geist of Saint Traft if Gut Shot or Curse of Death's Hold are still really popular after AVR's release. if this change is made then Sundial of the Infinite, some swords, and Oblivion Ring will be added to the main board of the deck for some trickery with geist. geist is pretty good with flicker as a defense, and sundial would allow you to get lots of tokens with evasion just like splicer is in the current deck list.
