This is a ramp deck that takes advantage of Trophy Mage and Inspiring Statuary to turn give the cards in your hand improvise. Once that happens, you'll have a lot of mana to cast big Eldrazi creatures, like Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger and Kozilek, the Great Distortion . Maybe these two can be subbed out for some smaller, but still hard hitting eldrazi creatures.

Started working on a revision of a U/W ramp deck that Todd Stevens set up. I have play tested it, and when it hits, it is pretty nasty. If it has a lull tho, probably lights out. Needs something to take on super fast aggro decks, and maybe a playset of Aethersphere Harvester , or Hope of Ghirapur , or Ornithopter to chump block, and tap for mana later.

I have started tearing it down, and tweaking it. I have reduced Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger from 3x to 2x, because it is expensive as hell. I added a Kozilek, the Great Distortion for fun. Trophy Mage works well, and digs for the Inspiring Statuary , which powers this deck by giving improvise to all non-artifact spells...so big eldrazi, or any other large creature, can be cast cheaply. Now I can see another reason for banning Emrakul, the Promised End .

Anticipate works nicely, as always, and I think Confirm Suspicions will need to be cut, too pricey, even tho it gives you a ton of clue tokens. I would almost rather put a Jace, Unraveler of Secrets in here in place of Confirm Suspicions .
