---

• Arboreal Grazer, Parcelbeast, and Migratory Greathorn are land ramps
• Arboreal Grazer has 0/3 and reach so it serves as a good starting defender
• Parcelbeast's mana ability can be triggered at the end of an opponents turn, which can put a land on the battlefield before the start of your turn
• Essence Symbiote provides +1/+1 counters and 2 life each time a creature mutates
• Predator Ooze serves as a base with Indestructible and +1/+1 counters for later mutations and can be cast as early as turn 2
• All spells in the deck are permanents to maximize Auspicious Starrix's mutate ability
• Auspicious Starrix's mutate ability can bring out a lot of expensive spells and put them directly on the battlefield
• Dirge Bat helps to eliminate opposing creatures and gives your mutated creatures flying
• Glowstone Recluse provides additional +1/+1 counters and reach
• When Gemrazer mutates, it can destroy any enchantments or artifacts your opponents control, getting rid of Pacisfism and Dreadful Apathy
• Herald of Secret Streams takes advantage of the +1/+1 counters that Predator Ooze, Glowstone Recluse, and Essence Symbiote provide
• Archetype of Endurance adds hexproof to all creatures I control, making them almost impossible to kill

WIN-CONS
• Once Simic Ascendancy is on the battlefield, +1/+1 counters from Primal Empathy, Glowstone Recluse, Essence Symbiote, and Predator Ooze can quickly get you to 20 counters for a win
• Herald of Secret Streams makes all creatures with +1/+1 counters unblockable and can easily attack another player
