This is my Simic Momir Vig, Simic Visionary commander deck. Momir tutors for any creature when a blue/green creature is played, making creature combos amazing. This deck wins by answering high powered spells, cloning other people's permanents, and playing politics until certain combos are achievable. Ezuri, Clone of Mo' Mirror is a clone of this deck, with some changes to make it more aggressive.

Ramp Early:

Early game ramp is important in the EDH format. Additional land drops and land search is generally better than creature or artifact ramp since lands generally stick around longer and deck thinning is useful. The following can be used in the deck to ramp early game into the late game-

• Mana Crypt

• Exploration

• Birds of Paradise

• Green Sun's Zenith for 0 for Dryad Arbor

• Crop Rotation for a Gaea's Cradle

• Sol Ring

• Nature's Lore

• Sakura-Tribe Elder

• Kiora's Follower

• Cryptolith Rite

• Earthcraft

• Coiling Oracle for a land

• Thrasios, Triton Hero for a land

• Wood Elves

• Phyrexian Altar

• Growing Rites of Itlimoc  

• Oracle of Mul Daya

Set Up a Card Draw Plan:

Drawing cards is important in EDH to get to removal cards and to get to win conditions. The following can be used to draw additional cards each turn or to reorder cards in the library-

• Sensei's Divining Top

• Sylvan Library

• Thrasios, Triton Hero

• Rhystic Study

• Cold-Eyed Selkie

• Rashmi, Eternities Crafter

• Vizier of the Menagerie

• Prime Speaker Zegana

Counter Spells:

Being part blue, this deck does run a few powerful counterspells. Counterspells in this deck are generally used to prevent removal and to stop opponents from outright winning. If an opponent plays a powerful creature, such as Avacyn, Angel of Hope, this deck would rather clone it over countering or removing it. The following are some counterspells with various abilities-

• Disallow - counters spells or abilities. Useful to stop a planeswalker ultimate.

• Voidslime - counters spells or abilities. Useful to stop a planeswalker ultimate.

• Mystic Snake - counters spells and can be cloned to counter more spells

• Venser, Shaper Savant - instead of countering spells, this returns the spell from the stack to the hand. This works around uncounterable abilities and can be cloned to "counter" more spells.

Remove Threats:

Removal is useful in EDH to stop opponent from winning, and to get rid of problem cards that shut this deck down.

The following can be used to remove any permanent-

• Beast Within - one of the better removal spells in green since it can destroy anything at instant speed

• Song of the Dryads - prison effect removal that can remove a problematic commander for a number of turns

• Venser, Shaper Savant - returns permanents at instant speed. Can be used to return your own permanents in response to a board wipe and can be cloned.

The following can be used to remove non creature permanents-

• Acidic Slime - pretty versatile destruction for a green creature

• Trygon Predator - a creature that can remove Torpor Orb and remove an artifact or enchantment every turn

The following can be used to board wipe-

• Cyclonic Rift - pretty op card that should win you the game

• Bane of Progress - useful in this deck, as it doesn't run as many artifacts or enchantments as others

The following can be used for specific removal-

• Strip Mine - removes opponent's Gaea's Cradle or Inkmoth Nexus and takes up a land slot

• Ghost Quarter - same as Strip Mine, but has the added versatility to be on color at a steep price

• Scavenging Ooze - removes graveyards to stop recursion

Always Use Protection:

Removal is prevalent in EDH, meaning protection is necessary in the deck. The following can be used to prevent removal-

• Heroic Intervention - protects your board from targeted removal and board wipes for the turn.

• Spellskite - stops removal when you are about to win. This also stops Marath, Will of the Wild from killing Momir EVERY SINGLE TIME he is played.

Although not as proactive, Eternal Witness can be used to recur cards after a board wipe, or to return spells from the graveyard to your hand

Attack of the Clones:

I love clones and I find them ever entertaining. Clones can be used to play opponent's cards, to clone powerful creatures in the deck, to play around problem cards such as Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, and even to clone removal or counterspells. The following are some clones with various abilities-

• Phantasmal Image - cheapest but fragile clone. Fun to play when someone plays Terastodon turn 2

• Phyrexian Metamorph - another cheap clone, but can clone artifacts as well

• Clever Impersonator - arguably the best clone, as it can clone almost anything

• Sakashima the Impostor - can clone even legendary creatures

• Stunt Double - can clone Mystic Snake or removal at instant speed

• Altered Ego - can't be countered and triggers Momir Vig, Simic Visionary twice

• Progenitor Mimic - clones every turn and triggers Momir Vig, Simic Visionary twice

Tutor for Answers:

Tutors are always useful in EDH. If Momir Vig, Simic Visionary becomes too expensive to play, other creature tutors can be used to win the game still. The following are some tutor cards with various abilities-

• Green Sun's Zenith - cheap tutor that puts the creature directly in play. This tutor can be useful to ramp early and to play powerful creatures late game.

• Chord of Calling - one of the best creature tutors in the game. Creatures can pay for this tutor and it can be cast at instant speed. This allows counterspell and removal creatures to be searched out and played in response to opponent's actions.

• Birthing Pod - banned in modern for good reasons. Reusable creature search that only requires a creature chain

• Eldritch Evolution - a better Birthing Pod trigger but in sorcery form

• Cloudstone Curio and Slippery Bogle - useful with Momir Vig, Simic Visionary to repeatably tutor creatures for one mana

• Trophy Mage - Specifically in the deck to search out Cloudstone Curio and Phyrexian Altar

• Crop Rotation - instant speed trade out a basic for a Gaea's Cradle

• Tolaria West - though slow, it can search up useful lands such as Gaea's Cradle and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx

Create Superiority:

In the late game, certain board states can be achieved to take control of the game. With Prophet of Kruphix banned in commander, it is slightly harder in this deck, but this deck can still manage a superior board state. The following can be used to create such a board state-

• Seedborn Muse - untaps all permanents, allowing mana to be available during opponent's turns

• Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir - allows creatures to be played at instant speed and shuts down opponent's responses

• Rashmi, Eternities Crafter - casts things for free. Combos well with Momir Vig, Simic Visionary since a green creature can trigger Momir then Rashmi to play creatures for free. Rashmi excels with X costing cards as well.

• Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger - doubles your mana and taxes opponents for using lands

• Deadeye Navigator - can combo with Venser, Shaper Savant for infinite counters and removal

• Avenger of Zendikar and Master of Waves - token generators to attack and block with. These can help with sacrifice affects, such as Grave Pact.

• Master Biomancer and Ezuri, Claw of Progress - +1/+1 counter generators to make your creatures tougher

This deck runs 4 different combos - 3 infinite mana combos and 1 infinite turn combo. The 3 mana combos revolve around Palinchron, Earthcraft, and Phyrexian Altar while the infinite turn combo revolves around Sage of Hours. Many of the combos require a bounce effect for creatures to reenter the battlefield multiple times.

Combos- Bounce:

The following can be used as bounce effects-

• Deadeye Navigator - it doesn't get much cheaper than 2 mana to bounce a creature and return it to the battlefield

• Cloudstone Curio - free effect while playing creatures and lets you recast creatures for more Momir triggers. With the right combo, this can get around Cursed Totem effects.

• Temur Sabertooth - costs 2 to return to hand, but doesn't require an enter the battlefield effect, which can get around Torpor Orb

Combos- Palinchron:

Palinchron is a unique card in that it pays for itself and has an ability to bounce itself. With the right combination of cards, Palinchron can produce infinite mana easily-

• Deadeye Navigator and at least 3 mana producing lands

• Cloudstone Curio, any clone, and at least 7 mana producing lands

• Temur Sabertooth, any 4 drop or less clone, and at least 7 mana producing lands

• Phantasmal Image and at least 7 mana producing lands

• Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and a combination of lands and devotion equal to 12 mana

• Gaea's Cradle and a combination of lands and creatures equal to 12 mana

• Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger and at least 6 mana producing lands

Combos- Earthcraft:

Earthcraft is an amazing mana ramp card. With basic lands in play, Earthcraft turns all of your creatures into Birds of Paradise without the need for haste. Token generators and 1 drops quickly pay for themselves. When a bounce effect is added to the board, infinite can be easily attained-

• Deadeye Navigator, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 2 lands

• Deadeye Navigator and Master of Waves

• Cloudstone Curio, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 7 lands*

• Cloudstone Curio, Master of Waves and devotion to blue equal to at least 4*

• Temur Sabertooth, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 9 lands*

• Temur Sabertooth, Master of Waves and devotion to blue equal to at least 6*

• Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger, Cloudstone Curio, any 1 drop creature, and any 2 drop creature

*Note that cheaper clones make these requirements less

Combos- Phyrexian Altar:

Phyrexian Altar is one of the few sacrifice effects this deck uses, and for good reason. Being blue/green, this deck doesn't feature any recursion cards out side of Eternal Witness, so once a card hits the graveyard, it is generally gone in this deck. Despite this, Phyrexian Altar is a very powerful card - it can produce colored mana for sacrificing creatures, it can kill creatures rather than having them be exiled, it can be used set up your graveyard when someone plays a Living Death, and, unlike Earthcraft, it is a combo piece that Momir can tutor for through Trophy Mage. Token generators and bounce effects make Phyrexian Altar go infinite almost as easily as Earthcraft-

• Deadeye Navigator, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 3 lands

• Deadeye Navigator and Master of Waves

• Cloudstone Curio, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 8 lands*

• Cloudstone Curio, Master of Waves and devotion to blue equal to at least 5*

• Temur Sabertooth, Avenger of Zendikar, and at least 10 lands*

• Temur Sabertooth, Master of Waves and devotion to blue equal to at least 7*

*Note that cheaper clones make these requirements less

Combos- Draw the Deck:

Once infinite mana is produced, the following can be used to draw the entire deck:

• Thrasios, Triton Hero - allows a scry first, which protects from decking yourself if a couple of turns are needed to win and a specific noncreature card is needed

• Coiling Oracle and any bounce effect - doesn't have you draw cards, meaning that combo can be useful against "when you draw a card" cards (Nekusar, the Mindrazer).

Combos- Sage of Hours:

Sage of Hours is one of the few creatures that allow players to take extra turns. If given 5 counters every turn, this card can produce infinite turns. The following can be used to produce at least 5 counters a turn-

• Ezuri, Claw of Progress and at least 5 experience counters - once Ezuri has the 5 experience counters, Torpor Orb effects can't affect this combo

• Master Biomancer, a clone of Master Biomancer, and a Progenitor Mimic clone of Sage of Hours*

• Master Biomancer, a clone of Master Biomancer, Temur Sabertooth, and 4 mana a turn*

• Master Biomancer, a clone of Master Biomancer, a Sakashima the Impostor clone of Sage of Hours, and eight mana a turn*

• Master Biomancer, a clone of Master Biomancer, Deadeye Navigator, and 2 mana a turn

• Master Biomancer, a clone of Master Biomancer, Cloudstone Curio, any low drop creature, and mana equal to that creature plus 2 a turn

*Note that these combos work around Torpor Orb effects

Win Conditions:

Once infinite is achieved, the deck can win a couple of ways-

• Biovisionary and multiple clones. This win condition can be achieved on anyone's end step.

• Attacking with multiple powerful creatures such as Avenger of Zendikar, Master of Waves, and Master Biomancer. Infinite Creatures can be achieved if Avenger of Zendikar enters the battlefield infinite times.

• Removing opponent's board state with Venser, Shaper Savant, Acidic Slime, and Cyclonic Rift

Let me know what you think and how I should change the deck. Thanks :)
