Hello. I'm Considering ways to fill your graveyard up faster since you run Enigma Drake and Crackling Drake.

Instead of Opt replace with Consider

Instead of Divination consider Hieroglyphic Illumination

Instead of Chart a Course consider Curate

Unexplained Disappearance and Sweltering Suns are both interesting as well.

Okaaay, now that I've had a chance to think about things and take a look around I've got some more thoughts. Somehow I managed to forget the new Ashiok, Ashiok, Nightmare Muse, who's a definite bae if you go in for that sort of thing. Thought Erasure is great disruption spell and four copies would really not be too many! Mission Briefing could be an interesting one-of that acts as another copy of whatever you need, and at the very worst would give you Surveil 2. Considering how deep you're going on said mechanic you might want a pair of Enhanced Surveillances - did serious work for me at the set pre-release and gets exponentially better if you jump on the Creeping Chill/Narcomoeba train! There's also good interaction with Syr Konrad, the Grim who will drain your opponent when you surveil your own creatures, make your opponent discard theirs and when you activate the second part of Enhanced Surveillance. Nightveil Predator is cool but mana intensive, so honestly I think you're better going one further in Doom Whisperer or Konrad. Connive / Concoct is a beefy surveil card but probably better for the sideboard along with the other two copies of Deadly Visit and Unexplained Disappearance (plus maybe Doomfall?). Almost at the end now, but I'd add Drowned Catacombs to strengthen the mana base and perhaps some of the Eldraine land cycle, and even a single Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip considering you've mentioned how low your life gets!

Hey Nina26. Good questions! I would definitely play the full playset of Thought Erasure and Discovery / Dispersal, which would probably mean getting rid of 3 Unexplained Disappearance, 2 Barrier of Bones, 1 Dazzling Lights, 1 Notion Rain, and 1 land. (Discovery makes it easy to fix mana early, so you can get by with 22 lands.) I would also consider substituting Sinister Sabotage for Clout of the Dominus, although that will partly depend on what you're playing against. I haven't tested Mission Briefing before, but I could definitely see playing at least two - maybe taking out the other two Barrier of Bones.

Given the curve, you could probably drop a land or two. Maybe one for another Stony Strength. Either way, I'd add Temple of Mystery to help fixing and bounce like Callous Dismissal for anything or more focused ones like Applied Biomancy or Unexplained Disappearance .

On another note, I'd drop the Mono-Green tag for Simic. I'd probably drop the Temur tag too. Given the gameplan Stompy would work.

Gof5550, I didn't even think of Unexplained Disappearance and honestly it's probably a great include.

I think going forward I need to reduce the number of Rals in the main, bring in 2 niv mizzet to the main and up the burn count in Lightning Strike and Shock . Also I think I need to replace Ral's Outburst with a one of Skewer the Critics to increase burn.

What about Unexplained Disappearance over Callous Dismissal ?

captainamerica: Yes, unfortunately IAmTheWraith is correct. Can't play any additional creatures, or the whole Polymorph gimmick won't work. I am considering putting in 4 polymorph's in leiu of that though.

And I like the idea of Vapor Snag and/or Unexplained Disappearance , and may have it replace Forked Bolt in the sideboard. Much thanks.

You should play Augur of Bolas or Riverwise Augur to make sure you can get it down. It also means that when an opponent Wrath of God s you aren't stuck with dinky 1/1s and you'll have some feasible blockers. I'd also play Vapor Snag or Unexplained Disappearance over Disperse .
