I like it! Have you considered Laboratory Maniac as an alternate wincon? He would fit in pretty well with your plans to draw massive cards. It may be worth it to drop both Fatespinner and Paradox Haze entirely. It's nice to have a bit of control but those slots could be used for other things.

Overall though you have a solid deck

Thanks! It plays pretty well, it recovers nicely from fieldwipes and the synergy that gets going is ridiculous. The only thing is a lack of a strong endgame. I have my infinite combo and the token army grows to a healthy size, but I'm missing that game winning power. Hoping a Blightsteel Colossus will change that.

Overall you're onto something great here. Mindslaver is a decent card but I've personally found it to not be of much use. It may be better in your group than mine, though.

If you're interested in running more removal you could try Lux Cannon. It isn't the fastest thing in the world but it's a decent ticking time bomb threat.

+1 from me!

Sorry I missed seeing Everflowing Chalice on there. For a $200 budget it's a great deck!

I'm not a fan of Jeweled Amulet personally, I'd swap it with Manalith. It does cost 3 to play but it's an available mana right away instead if having to pay into it. If you're looking for something that uses counters for mana, you could look at Astral Cornucopia or Everflowing Chalice. They're a little more expensive to cast as one is XXX and the other is multikicker 2 but in the long run, once you pay once you have all the mana without having to keep paying into it.

You could also look into a few different lands than Islands depending on your budget. Lotus Vale may be of interest over Coral Atoll.

Overall I'd say you're off to a great start!
