AkaAkuma on What if I changed Vorosh to Partners?

How do Reyhan and Ishai serve you over Vorosh? I like your little Incubation Druid + Llanowar Reborn synergy, I might try this!

Speaking of creatures that like a graft, you should check Basking Broodscale which can go infinite with every other card...

Perhaps Agonasaur Rex is also a card worth considering. It grants a card, counters and evasion/protection in a pinch, but it also has a little synergy with the likes of Evolution Witness. Rex can be recurred continually, serving as a counter and carddraw manasink.

And perhaps i am mistaken, but i miss a bit of Oomph in the decklist. Any thoughts on Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord (usually 7 mana wincon), The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride (usually 5 mana win next turn) or Blade of Selves (swing with Reyhan, place 6 x 3 counters on anything)?

I can always appreciate a Reyhan and Ishai, and even with a primer! Nice.

Since you included a cathars, you should definitely check out Basking Broodscale and Crystalline Crawler.

My personal favorite is The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride with Reyhan lately. It quickly ramps out of control without losing power, even if you eat Reyhan with the frog. And if you can get wild with power, i would also really recommend giving Walking Archive or Giggling Skitterspike a try.

Cheers!

On the plus side, Basking Broodscale's gone, and this deck has room to breathe again. On the minus side, it takes Deadly Dispute with it, and Kuldotha Rebirth is gone too. Is it worth it to try to reclaim the Broodscale space?

Bitterblossom

Prosperous Innkeeper

Song of the Dryads

Chitterspitter

Cauldron Familiar (unless I am missing the combo piece for it in the list)

Craterhoof Behemoth: may be a bit win more. don't see it doing much

Toski, Bearer of Secrets: don't know how aggro this deck is, seems more combo oriented

Damnation: probably between MHM and fallout you have enough wipes
