(While suggesting, keep in mind that I've looked and analyzed pretty much all creatures with power equal or higher than five. So please, be creative. Besides, it's been a while since I've played with her, so...).

Well, it's a Mayel deck. Pretty straightforward. The difference is that unlike other versions of this deck, I've decided to privilege beasts and wurms as the fatties during deck construction. Even with that in mind, though, I couldn't leave some staple creatures out, so, here it is.

Mayael loves top of the deck vision and manipulation. I've tested Crystal Ball over Sensei's Divining Top because it allows me to move cards from the top of the library to the bottom. Top is superior.
