Roil Spout

Sorcery

Put target creature on top o its owner's library.

Awaken 4—symbol:4WU (If you cast this spell for [[symbol:4, also put four +1/+1 counters on target land you control and it becomes a 0/0 Elemental creature with haste. It's still a land.)

I've looked into this and I really like the path of +1/+1 counters. There are of course plenty of ways to get counters on your creatures in this deck (primarily Willowdusk), so capitalizing off of that with effects that bolster any creatures with counters or give them trample it pretty darn powerful.

First off, the trample givers: Bramblewood Paragon, Gnarlid Colony, Pridemalkin, and Crowned Ceratok.

And some other +1/+1 tribal engines: Mer-Ek Nightblade, Oona's Blackguard, Skyclave Shadowcat, and Tenured Inkcaster who, in particular, is very good in this deck.

And some support for the counters: Armorcraft Judge, Gladehart Cavalry, and Inspiring Call.

On a different note, giving your creatures lifelink in this deck is insane. Swing with something big to permanently double it's P/T with Willowdusk. Some good cards for that are: Alchemist's Gift, Essence Infusion, Rush of Vitality, Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord, Poet's Quill, and especially Whip of Erebos. Essence Harvest is also in the same vein.

Lastly, one nasty thing you could do would be untapping Willowdusk to use her ability twice in a turn for exponential gains. Ideally, this would be done with cards like: Magewright's Stone, Puppet Strings, Quirion Ranger, Seeker of Skybreak, and Thousand-Year Elixir.

I also want to quickly touch on the other side of Willowdusk's ability with Aetherflux Reservoir Which would let you instakill an opponent then give one of your creatures +50/+50.

As for what to remove, there are quite a few cards I feel are pretty unsynergistic here like Dragonsguard Elite and Witherbloom Pledgemage as this isn't really a spellslinger deck. I also dont see the point of reclamation effects like Deadly Brew, Retrieve, Healing Technique, Dollhouse of Horrors, The Underworld Cookbook, or You Happen on a Glade. Lastly, Roil Spout just isn't legal (probably an error lol).

Imprisoned in the Moon, is a must have. Plus its dirt cheap.

Azorius Charm / Jeskai Charm > Roil Spout

Ghost Quarter, Rogue's Passage, Prahv, Spires of Order = sweet utility lands.

This deck looks pretty effective, however, your numbers seem slightly off. For example; Roil Spout should be a full playset, whereas, Sheer Drop shouldn't be at three, perhaps you could look at Declaration in Stone, or Immolating Glare, I understand it creates a land critter, however, it just isn't worth it to pay three mana to do something that could be done easier and for less. Noyan Dar, Roil Shaper should be in a higher count, as he works wonders with the Awaken mechanic. You are going to want to see him on the battlefield almost every game, not once every three games. Ondu Rising is pretty awful, it'd be better to use a Clutch of Currents in its place. This deck looks pretty fun to play, I'm excited the Standard format still has creative people playing in it. Most decks in Standard are Tier 1 Vehicles/Saheeli Jeskai/BG Counters/Esper Control decks. Awaken is a mechanic that I've never really thought about building around, but after seeing this deck and a couple Bant ones laying around, it makes me itch for building around the mechanic.

Set Adrift and Nevermaker are a bit less mana intensive, and there are a couple things in this deck that don't belong, like Wandering Tombshell

If you can find an esper commander, Unexpectedly Absent, AEthertow, Azorius Charm and Roil Spout seem to be much better cards. White seems to do this better, imo.

Halimar Tidecaller is huge here, maybe the all star of the deck. Oath of Jace works nicely with her. I would personally shift the deck to be more Controlling, with more Scatter to the Winds, Roil Spout, and Planar Outburst.

This is technically Modern (if you want to get really technical, it's Frontier), though the only cards that aren't Standard legal are Narset Transcendent, Talent of the Telepath, Displacement Wave, and Thunderclap Wyvern. I was working on an Awaken Standard deck a little bit ago, and I used 4 Roil Spout and 4 Planar Outburst, which are imo the two best Awaken cards. I'm going to list changes to make the deck Standard legal, because I assume you don't want to pay the $150+ to make this deck competitive in Modern.

I absolutely love the Awaken mechanic, and I hope you have fun with the deck, regardless of whether or not you like my changes.

To me, Halimar Tidecaller is a much better inclusion than Embodiment of Insight, unless you're extremely reliant on the landfall mechanic. This could allow you to recur some cards with awaken, like your own Scatter to the Winds or add things like Roil Spout, which I have seen to great effect stifle other decks (no draw is killer). Lastly, having a lot of 4-5 drop creatures isn't what I would call effective vs control.I do have a list that I haven't updated since standard rotated, but it's a bit of fun to play and awaken all the lands. tapped out isn't letting me link it currently, but you can find it through my profile if you are curious :)

Synyst3r_D3xtyr,

Wow, thank you so much for the advice, I am defiantly going to take a lot of what you said into consideration. I have ran into some draw issues and have been wanting to put Anticipate or something like it into the deck for some time now. I just really enjoy the Grip of the Roil on their turn into Reflector Mage combo, but it is probably not the most efficient. The Roil Spout really sparked my interest though, making an opponent recast as well as delaying a draw seems like it could work very well in this deck, I will have to test it out. I like the Summary Dismissal only for the meta in which I am playing, I am running into a lot of turbo Emrakul decks and having Summary in my sideboard seems to help a lot. I had Authority of the Consuls in my main for a little while and it just didn't seem to help that much, but again I haven't been playing against to much aggro yet, sideboarding it seems really nice though.

I'm glad you liked the Sphinx of the Final Word, it was probably the toughest thing to find for this deck. I see a lot of people run Archangel Avacyn  Flip as their finisher, but for me it just didn't seem to sync well. I also tried Angel of Invention and it did okay, but I kept losing it to removal in the later stages of the game. So I felt like the Sphinx was a really nice fit.
