Deep within the breeding pools of the Simic you feel a sense of being watched. Nature is clearly abundant with life evolving in the pools right in front of you. In the distance you can see the heads of the feared Kalonian Hydras feeding. Life both withers and perfects in the path of the biomanced hydras harbored by the Simic.
Fast, powerful evolve deck. The synergy in this deck is amazing, everything flows so well with each other card.
Cloudfin Raptor - solid 1 drop. Has flying, and is evolved by every other creature in the deck. Always ends up being a threat.
Elusive Krasis
- unblockable, with huge block body. Evolves most creatures in the deck and is also evolved by most creatures in the deck.
Gyre Sage - evolve creature that ramps mana, fantastic.
Renegade Krasis - evolves just about every creature, and continues pumping them up when evolving itself. Awesome card.
Prime Speaker Zegana - for that extra draw power.
Vorel of the Hull Clade - doubling counters is alllwayyys good.
Progenitor Mimic
- One of my favorite cards from Dragon's Maze. Really versatile. Combined with Master Biomancer or Kalonian Hydra is an immediate threat to an opponent for sure. Also fantastic for mimicking opponent's creatures. For example, Angel of Serinity.
Master Biomancer - One of the main stars of this deck. Every creature comes out already on its way to getting huge. Once more than one hits the field things get really big!
Progenitor Mimic
+ Master Biomancer = GIGANTIC CREATURES!
Kalonian Hydra - The other main star of this deck. This hydra is an absolute monster and a force to be reckoned with. In this deck, when he hits the field, if he doesn't die that turn, I pretty much win. Also part of a turn 32/32 Trample swing, without the other enhanced large creatures swinging.
Simic Charm - very versatile, pretty self-explanatory in this deck. "Oh your gonna Dreadbore my hydra? I think I'll cast Simic Charm"
Plasm Capture
- probably my favorite counter card, even for 4 cmc. It comes in handy so much in this deck. When I'm playing
Progenitor Mimic
and Prime Speaker, free mana is always a help.
Strionic Resonator - Fantastic artifact! A lot of people have been disagreeing with this card having a place in the deck, but after very large amount of playtesting it is here to stay. For one, it is part of the turn 5 32/32 trample combo with Kalonian Hydra. Also, evolve is a triggered ability, double evolves always nice. Renegade Krasis ability is triggered, two counters on everything is always better than one.
Progenitor Mimic
ability is triggered, two copies always better than one. Most importantly is the Hydra though, quadruple counters are always better than double :)
