The current physical existence of the Horde of Notions from the dead deck I've got posted. A bit more tuned to my playgroup which includes Marchesa, the Black Rose and Derevi, Empyrial Tactician decks. I'm poor and can't really afford to bulk up the deck. Would Animar, Soul of Elements be nice? Of course, but sadly I've got what I've got.

The idea of the deck is based in the inherent absurdity of having next to no elementals in a Horde of Notions EDH deck with a legendary tribal-ish thing going on. There are a few machinations you want brought into fruition. This one is what started the deck: Horde of Notions in play, Conspiracy set to Elementals, Cathars' Crusade or Door of Destinies on Elementals, and Composite Golem for an arbitrary pumping effect. Or a buff like the Crusade, the Door, or Day of Destinies; anything that pumps toughness, Warstorm Surge or Pandemonium, and Sekki, Seasons' Guide for infinite tokens, or if you couldn't get a buff you can still do unlimited damage to anything and everything. There are a lot of triggers to get the aforementioned combo rolling if Sekki entered the field first. And for a while there was a Quillspike, Devoted Druid, Necrotic Ooze thing going on, but I took that out to make the deck more stable. Frequently, it is more handy to set Conspiracy to Spirits, "cheat" Iname as One in with Fist of Suns and grab Sekki, Seasons' Guide . Also, should you use this yourself and not see enough blue instants or counters to justify Eyes of the Wisent , take it out and put something else in; my playgroup has a lot of &*%$!@? counters so it's super worth it. Plus even if it's countered, it's an elemental, so Horde of Notions can resurrect it. Maelstrom Wanderer is pretty self explanatory so I'll leave it at that.
