The deck combines heliod, sun-crowned with walking ballista, spike feeder and kitchen finks to win as early as turn 3. The ballista and spike feeder are single card combos with heliod while kitchen finks uses viscera seer like the old kitchen finks persist deck to produce infinte life. Those are the main plans and collected company can draw heliod and a combo peice ot just a single creature to win turn 3. Edritch evolution can tutor you a combo piece into play as soon as turn 2. The 2 enchantments provide ramp or a way to draw one creature but together they allow you to on maybe turn 4 or 5 tutor every creature out of your deck for free and win on the spot. The 4 card combo uses cryptolith rite, evolutionary leap,cauldron haze and viscera seer and allows you to scry to and then draw a single creature for free and then rinse and repeat to instantly draw every single creature in your deck and win that turn. That's a complicated combo but thats plan # 6 or 7 so thats fine. Besides it's just a 4 card combo with heliod. People are freaking out about a 7 card turn 1 win with heliod and ballista in commander and this is far more likely. The deck also uses cauldron haze, angel's grace and veil of summer defensively. It is a cheap creature deck with alot of ways to win using alot of different high value combos with low or free mana costs. It uses 26 creatures and 6 cards to draw or tutor creatures to win fast, 9 ramp cards, 6 defensive spells and 20 lands. It has a basic concept, hopefully good consistancy, a reletively low mana curve, good ramp and alot of ways to win on turn 3 or 4 and some cheap effective defense. Still working on the sideboard. Still a prototype please give feedback.
