Hi! I thought it'd be fun to make a deck around Channel the Suns. The idea of this deck is simple. Ramp, play Channel the Suns, then Cast Horde of Notions. You can get Horde of Notions on turn 2. Here's how: on the first turn, play a forest and cast an Arbor Elf. On turn 2, drop another forest and cast a Wild Growth on your untapped forest then you tap it for 2 green mana then untap it with Arbor Elf then tap it again for another two green mana. Then you cast Channel the Suns (Still turn 2) which gives you enough mana on turn 2 to cast Horde of Notions. How this deck plays after your Horde of Notioms is out is basically to keep drawing cards with Standstill until you have maybe a few more Channel the Suns and a few of your expensive Elementals. Just in case you don't get a Channel the Suns, I have 3 Mountains, 3 Elves of Deep Shadows and 3 Avacyn's Pilgrim. That way, you can still cast your Horde of Notions.
