Summer Changes —July 20, 2018

I haven't added anything from M19 but here are some of the revisions I've made over the past month or so:

Revel of the Fallen God ---> Beacon of Creation: I think the advantage of lower CMC and typically more tokens outweighs the importance of having tokens that are both red and green. I don't like that Beacon of Creation shuffles back into the library, but it can produce a lot of tokens for its CMC. As 1/1 tokens they are also better targets for Skullclamp.

Saproling Symbiosis ---> Pirate's Pillage: My copy of Saproling Symbiosis was more needed in my Slimefoot deck. Plus I found the deck needed a little more card draw. Pirate's Pillage is one that had escaped my attention. When copied with Wort, it replaces its mana cost with treasure tokens while drawing cards. Nice little card draw spell. If I get another copy of Saproling Symbiosis, I may put it back in here.

Hour of Devastation ---> Volcanic Vision: I found that I missed Volcanic Vision. Being a one-sided boardwipe with recursion is very powerful. I do like Hour of Devastation too though so I could see it coming back in another slot.

Primal Amulet  Flip ---> Tunneling Geopede: Also missed Tunneling Geopede. This little critter can do work in the deck, burning people within range of a large X spell. Primal Amulet too often I found too slow to flip.

Still loving the Deck and your List, the deck is working pretty well so far, just having trouble against multiple Cyclonic Rift's per game. But who doesn't.^^

May I suggest Deglamer as a card? I do like Hull Breach very much, however the extra utility to do something against indestructible enchantments and artifacts (at instant speed) might be better - especially against decks with strong recursion mechanics. Hello Daretti, Scrap Savant!
