Halfway Done with Tutors! —Aug. 4, 2017
I just picked up a Gamble for the deck! This means I need 3-4 more tutors to complete the tutor line-up.
I've also been debating upping the power level of this deck in adding the Animate Dead + Worldgorger Dragon /Dance of the Dead package once I acquire Entomb. I'll most likely take out the Sharuum combos because the extra cards do win with Breya combining out, but they're win-moar and I'd rather have more boardwipes and means of comboing out once I increase the budget.
Doomsday might also be added in just because of how OP it is. Will have to build the deck around it a little more, but I shouldn't have too much of a problem with that.
Pretty amazing and terrifying to see how this deck has evolved over the course of barely a year!
Winterblast I might add in Lion's Eye Diamond- Looking at the price tag, it's not that bad-looking anymore haha. Also gives me a reason to keep in Trinket Mage.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Just to note, your "Turn 3 combo" is in fact a turn 2.
T1: island > Sol Ring > Pili-pala
T2: island > Grand architect > attack with Pili-pala > tap Grand architect to make > use it to untap Pili-pala making > use it to make Pili-pala blue and then combo off.

I think Brago, Whir of Invention, and Baral's Expertise Would do wonders in here.

Hockeyguy429 I don't see too much use of Baral's Expertise, since it's not that efficient in this deck. The CMC is kinda off-putting since I do have Cyclonic Rift to deal with boards, and it can double as spot removal. I'm planning on additionally getting Toxic Deluge sometime too to deal with annoying boards. I'd definitely recommend it for a more budget build!
I think Brago is kind of appealing in this deck, untapping mana rocks is very nice. I'll consider him, and probably test him out, as I do have one in my trade binder. Whir of Invention is an amazing card, as any untapped creature with an EtB can be used to pay for it, and it can tutor for any artifact! The only real problem I have with it is the high CMC since usually with 5-6 mana I'm casting Ashnod's Altar or Nim Deathmantle. It is quite high on my consideration list, however!
Thanks for all the suggestions!

The thing I love about baral expertise is that you can use it to save breya bouncing her to your hand and then you get to recast her for free

True, I'll consider it for now. I'll be able to test Brago in the 99 in a couple days when I'm with a friend haha.

Baral's Expertise Is not an instant, so you can't use it to save Breya and replay her. For instant bounce there is Evacuation, which is good for opponents who don't expect non-targeted, non-destroying instant removal. Sometimes, bouncing is even more powerful than destroying.

Auriok Salvagers and Lion's Eye Diamond would be a great combo to include here. Basically any combo that produces infinite coloured mana will be fine.
