Okay so pivoting the deck I could go for Izzet walls, or something along the lines wiht cards like About Face and just Flinging walls around. Wall of Torches is an okay fling on its own (ig) and Wall of Fire is an okay mana sink into fling. This kind of deck could make a lot more use out of Wall of Runes and Mnemonic Wall to find flings and other card selection like Brainstorm imo kinda boring but if you want a "viable" walls deck this or a defender combo deck would be it. Mordor Trebuchet is really funny flavorwise but loses out on requiring non wall creatures to function... Though it should be noted that you can trigger it with Mistform Wall I suppose.

hello i'm taking a cue from your deck with kazuul in the middle, actually i've completely changed your deck, using as euip only Accorder's Shield and Slagwurm Armor combining it with Temur Battle Rage and About Face , i've also added creatures that guarantee a solid start but also that allow you to draw cards ... the theorized deck is white/red with only 14 lands and less equip, if you want more information please contact me

If you're really a fan of the booty, try hitting Infinity Elemental with About Face. Thank me later.

i wanted to go gruul at first, but i like mid-range for ths plan better, it opens up some room for interaction. I may have to take a few stabs at this one and may go more jund, About Face and Inside Out with Slagwurm Armor or Cathar's Shield was al stacked up in the "I don't think so" pile.

Another About Face perhaps like Mannichi, the Fevered Dream?

The deck is Judge. The issue at hand is what is a better source of life-gain? Should I switch in Daru Spiritualist, Warrior en-Kor, Nomads en-Kor, and Transmutation for Gravecrawler, Reassembling Skeleton, Tidehollow Sculler, and Bog Initiate?

The group already in the deck uses Ashnod's Altar to produce infinite entering/leaving the battlefield triggers to abuse the soul sisters.

The group I'm thinking about switching in uses the ability of the en-kor to target daru spiritualist (no damage actually has to be in play apparently, these cards are the engine of a somewhat popular pauper deck that uses About Face or something similar for infinite damage) which I then sacrifice with Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim or Starlit Sanctum for infinite life.

I guess the question I have is which group of cards offers the better synergy with the deck while I assemble pieces, and which combo is more reliable or powerful?

I know it's reliant upon the right draws, but have you considered Putrid Imp or Tireless Tribe as low cost card discard options? And with Tribe you can work in About Face & Fling from the sideboard.

Tribe is an added color, so it may not be your speed, I suggested from an idea I have that's similar to this.

This is /. Power/toughness switching effects are historically in blue and occasionally in red (Crookclaw Transmuter, About Face, Wandering Fumarole, Twisted Image come to mind immediately), and with the randomness of the last effect, this card is definitively /.

Also, Boza, there has never been a card that switches power and toughness in green-at least that I could find.
