I'm feeling you on that, Dr.Woodenstein. I'm thinking about taking out 1x Mizzium Skin and 1x Kiora for either Alpha Authority or that one drop green heroic creature from BOTG whose name I can't think of now. Unfortunately I'm in India right now and Magic doesn't exist here, so I haven't gotten to play test. Thanks for the suggestion! Got any more?

Hero of Leina Tower is what I was thinking of... I guess taking out both Kiora and 2x Mizzium Skin gives me room for 2x Alpha Authority and 2x Hero of Leina Tower ... I feel like I need more heroic targets than just the 4x Sage of Hours

I think Kiora is the only thing thats going to keep him alive for sure.

I like Kiora and she's part of the reason I built the deck. But I feel like the deck struggles to get 5 counters on Sage of Hours and the goal is to start getting extra turns before someone can kill it. Some play testing will definitely help, and I'll try both ways. But I feel like Alpha Authority and Hero of Leina Tower gets me there sooner. I could theoretically have a Cloudfin Raptor with Hidden Strings ciphered onto it and a Sage of Hours with Alpha Authority on it by the end of turn 2 with a perfect hand.

Awesome build! +1! Check out Solidarity of Heroes from Nyx. This deck would love it!

Good point cowboy_hippie. I thought about that card as soon as I saw it spoiled but wondered what I would take out to make room for it. What would you suggest?

Tough call pearltrident... Solidarity of Heroes targets Sage of Hours triggering heroic and doubling whatever he has. Also, with strive you can double counters on whatever other creatures you choose, trigger heroic, and give you more to move around with Bioshift . Fits like a glove into this deck, but deciding what to take out could be hard...

To add consistency to your draws, I'd consider taking out your 1x creatures and spells and adding a set of 3. Any 1x you only have a 1/60 chance or drawing, but a 3x give you a 1/20. Tough call though!

Tough call indeed cowboy_hippie. So you're suggesting taking out the Master Biomancer , Prime Speaker Zegana and Primeval Bounty for 3x Solidarity of Heroes ? That was my initial thought. I could definitely take out the Bounty and Primer Speaker, but Master Biomancer does pretty good work for this deck. I'll fiddle with it -- thanks for the tips!
