Unfortunately the Heartstone doesn't work with Satoru. Here is the explanation from the judges: "No, Heartstone only affects creatures on the battlefield, not creature cards in your hand." (https://chat.magicjudges.org/mtgrules/)

Looks fun!

Workhorse goes infinite with Emiel. Infinite ETB triggers. Infinite mana with Heartstone out.

Charming Prince is a neat card. You don't go infinite with it, but if you're against decks that permanently steals cards (Etali, Primal Storm, Xanathar, Guild Kingpin, etc) this can get them back. And if you have enough mana, you can bounce it repeatedly to save creatures from boardwipes.

Be careful with Yisharn, its ability prevents you from going infinite with Brood Monitor, since you have to sacrifice the eldrazi for mana.

You may want to consider adding some low mana ETB creatures for tempo. Right now Emiel is cheaper than most of your pay off creatures, so you're going Ramp -> Turn 3 Emiel -> Turn 4 Creature (4/5/6 drop) -> Turn 5 actually getting to activate Emiel for extra value. Wall of Blossoms, Elvish Visionary, Wall of Omens, etc are good chump blockers, replace themselves, and can accelerate you earlier than the big creatures that are targets for removal.

One thing I don't get is why Polyraptor is there, it's a good card but I don't see much synergy with Emiel?

Ridgescale Tusker and Primeval Protector would be fun to blink with your boss. Maybe Druid of the Emerald Grove and Heartstone

Soul of the Harvest would give you another Trample creature and Blinking activates the card draw ability.

I also have Heartstone for the Emiel and Workhorse combo if I don't have the ability to give him an additional +1+1 counters.

Hey man I love slivers myself, they can be a lot of fun. Have you looked into Training Grounds and/or Heartstone and running the Sliver Overlord as your commander. He would let you tutor up any sliver you need for 1.

Realmwalker and other changeling like Bloodline Pretender and Faceless Agent can work really well in tribal decks.

Heroic Intervention is a great way to keep your board alive too, doesn't work against non-targeted exile effects but is still handy.

Thats all I can think of off the top of my head but I hope some of these suggestions help. Great looking deck so far man, +1 from me.

Iluvmygirlfriend, thanks for your suggestions.

I have considered all of those cards, but have chosen against playing them.

King Crab is really cool, but very mana expensive, Willbreaker is just impossible to keep alive, Heartstone is a tad $ expensive, and Im not really that dependant on using Blind Seer's ability, and finally, Dismiss into Dream is a really cool card, but is a bit too mana expensive as well as making me too much of a target.

These might go in the deck at a later point, but currently I dont think they are good enough. They are however really on theme! So great job finding these suggestions for me :)

I love the idea of this deck! I have been thinking of some upgrades and have you thought about the following: King Crab, Willbreaker, Heartstone, and Dismiss into Dream
