Jenova's Genetic Modifications
1 month ago
No prob! I started brewing Jenova earlier this year, but eventually turned those brewing efforts into Szarel, Genesis Shepherd. There's def some decent overlap between the two; I even considered Jenova for Szarel's 99. Again, if you don't mind going a bit off theme with your creature base, there are a few more cards that could work well here:
-
Gyre Sage - A bit of redundancy with Incubation Druid.
-
Managorger Hydra - Doesn't take much for it to get big.
-
Cleopatra, Exiled Pharaoh as another potential draw source, especially given the wording for her second ability. Looks like ~16 of your creatures, including Jenova, are Legendary, so ymmv based on that volume.
+1/+1 counters have an overwhelming abundance of support, there's def a lot more that could be worth considering.
DemonDragonJ on Mana Rocks or Mana Dorks?

SaberTech, these two decks of mine have a strong focus on placing +1/+1 counters on creatures, so would Kami of Whispered Hopes be a good match for either of them?

Animar & friends!

Well, with the new additions it looks like you are aiming to improve the deck's speed and consistency. With that in mind, potential cuts that I could suggest are:
-
Palinchron: I used to run this but cut it after Ancestral Statue was printed. Even with a full discount from Animar, Palinchron still needs a lot of lands on the board to net you infinite mana without help. The deck should be able to win before you get that many lands out in a lot of instances. Peregrine Drake is much more mana efficient and can combo with other creatures for infinite mana. You also already have a number of different ways to rack up infinite counters on Animar so Palinchron is more of a liability since it can clog your opening hands.
-
Outcaster Trailblazer: This is what I would swap out for the Dour Port-Mage. Your deck doesn't really run many creatures with a power of 4 or higher to trigger this. If you take out Palinchron then the Trailblazer is mostly there for working with Ancestral Statue. The Port-Mage works with Statue just as well, is cheaper to cast, and can be triggered with a wider variety of creatures and effects in the deck on top of being able to trigger its own draw effect with its other ability.
-
Aluren: You already have a bunch of more efficient combo lines in the deck. You can't tutor for Aluren and Animar can't discount it. It also opens up potential plays for your opponents that they can use against you. You have so many more efficient combo lines that I'm pretty confident that you can cut this and not miss it, even if it might enable combo lines with the Port-Mage and cards like Shrieking Drake.
-
Prime Speaker Vannifar: I know that I run Birthing Pod so this might be a bit of a hypocritical suggestion, but the big difference in my mind in that Birthing Pod doesn't have summoning sickness. I think that having to spend the mana to cast Vannifar and then wait until your next turn to use her ability is a bit too slow for what Animar aims to do.
-
Kami of Whispered Hopes: This is basically just in the deck for Animar since you don't have ways of throwing around +1/+1 counters. Effects like this aren't even really necessary for Animar because you only need two counters on it to enable most of your combo line setups. 3 mana for a mana dork that makes you wait to produce mana with it is also too slow in my opinions.
-
Hardened Scales: This is cheaper than Kami of Whispered Hopes but I think the same reasoning applies. Animar just doesn't need the effect that badly. I think that it would be better off as a 1 CMC mana dork that helps you either cast Animar on turn 2 or triggers Animar to get a counter later in the game. Having this card slot be a creature also means that you have one more card in the deck that can trigger cards like Beast Whisperer.

Poly_raptor, given that this deck shall have a strong focus on creatures, I would like for it to have at least one card that searches my library for one or more creatures.
Also, what about Kami of Whispered Hopes, Circle of Dreams Druid, or Sylvan Library? Each of those cards works with one of the planned themes of this deck, so I am certainly considering them, for it.

An Abundance of Ways to Win

Your welcome hey even got some honorable mentions
Cayth, Famed Mechanist - another trifecta for catergories artifact creatures and +1/+1 counters
Kami of Whispered Hopes or/and Accomplished Alchemist — they are mana dorks for the counters and lifegain catergory kami has way more advantage since it has a hardening scales effect
And without explanation ten other honorable mentions 1. Fathom Mage 2. Pollywog Prodigy 3. Jan Jansen, Chaos Crafter 4. Chasm Skulker 5. Mycoloth 6. The Goose Mother (brief: second hydroid Krasiss) 7. Shadrix Silverquill 8. Winding Constrictor 9. Archangel of Thune
Gonna cheat on thr last one with three but they all do the same thing for Hellkite/production

FormOverFunction, this deck does not have a great emphasis on +1/+1 counters, so Gyre Sage would not be a good match for it, and, even if that were the case, I believe that Kami of Whispered Hopes is superior to Gyre Sage in the majority of situations. Similarly, this deck does not have many, if any, zombies, so Undead Alchemist is also not a good match, for this deck.
As for Phenax, God of Deception, he is a great recommendation, so I think that I would like to wait to receive several more responses, before I make a decision, on this matter.
