"Cloudfin Raptor Pauper all-star. 1 cmc with limitless growth potential. He could be all yours for the low low cost of a single blue mana! Every other creature in the deck evolves it at least twice with a max, best case scenario of a 3/4 flyer after three creatures hit the board.

Frostburn Weird Another hold over from the previous MUF deck. 2CMC for a big butt that can go on the offensive. Solid card that will see play for a long time in classic.

Wavecrash Triton He can potentially lock down your opponent and is out of shock and lightning range. My goal is to use Hidden Strings to start up a crazy combo of constant tap down. Combine with Hands of Binding and Claustrophobia to send your opponent into frustration mode.

Omenspeaker Much like an Augur of Bolas or the dreaded Sea Gate Oracle, this card lets you block early attackers and has a handy Scry 2 attached! Now this does not let you draw a card, but I suspect card draw is on the horizon. This may make Scatter Arc a much more useful spell.

Nimbus Naiad A new mechanic! We have a 2/2 flyer for 3 cmc. Instead of undying, we get to Bestow +2/+2 and flying onto another creature. The reason I like this so much is that it acts like a totem armor and avoids target removal. The nice thing about a 2/2 is that it evolves the Cloudfin Raptor twice.

Seacoast Drake Evasion, out of shock range, can block if needed. Value town!

Now for the spells:

Claustrophobia , Hands of Binding, Voyage's End These three cards will help control the pet population by spaying and neutering your opponents creatures. Voyage's End has the extra special effect of Scry one for our trouble!

Negate This helps with the removal we are likely to see. However, murder and victim of night are out. My hunch is that we are going to get a few more removal cards as the block progresses. If not, that would be a very interesting move.

Hidden Strings - This was the first card I thought of when I saw Wavecrash Triton. Imagine the perfect scenario. Triton is on the board, you cast Hidden Strings, target both untaps onto the hunter. Next you put both his triggers on opposing creatures. Then you cipher the strings on to what ever can make contact and swing in. Next put both the cipher triggers (oh yes, you do cast it so it works, my concern is if it works twice. Heres to hoping.) back onto the hunter, therefore locking down another two creatures if needed! This combo is awesome but not 100% needed to make the deck work.

Divination This lets all the scry you have work to your advantage!

Sideboard time.

Each of these spells has a similar affect to spells we already use. I think of this sideboard as a supplemental draft. A pack of ideas if you will. Until we see the new meta fleshed out I think sideboarding is premature."
