Hi,

This looks fun, but if I may: it's not fast. There's a very simple reason for this. Your deck contains no additional mana sources other than lands and no ramp. On top of that, most creatures in your deck are very expensive to cast. Considering that you don't seem to be on a budget, I'd recommend the following cards:

• Add ramp cards like Burgeoning, Exploration, Topiary Stomper and Wayward Swordtooth. Being able to play more lands per turn will increase the deck's speed dramatically.
• Add some mana rocks like Arcane Signet, Chromatic Lantern, Patchwork Banner and Sol Ring to provide you with additional mana.
• Try to cheapen the casting of dinosaurs with cards like Herald's Horn and Urza's Incubator.
• Include some ramp sorceries that allow you to fetch good lands for a low amount of required mana, like Farseek, Nature's Lore and Three Visits

Aside from all the above, you can also increase the deck's speed by adding stuff that allows you to filter through your deck like Scroll Rack and Sensei's Divining Top. Last but not least, Monstrous Vortex seems to be very suitable to the deck's overall theme and strategy.

Static orb 100%. That being said, I think you could (and others) could play around storage matrix. Really depends on the amount of dorks + rocks in your meta.

Ugin, the Ineffable - He ramps 15% of your deck, can create blockers/draw and provides removal.

White draw, kind of seems like an oxy-moron. I know white typically draws through equipment/artifact/enchantment casts + going wide(?). Looking over your list, I concur, draw is really needed, especially given your low avg cmc. I wish I knew something about mono white card draw.

While a bit too cheesy, have you considered the classic Scroll Rack + land tax synergy? With all the fetches + shuffling, scroll rack might be worth considering.

“Scroll Rack and Land Tax is old school value.” That made me all teary eyed

Balaam__ that's another great example of clunky gameplay on my part- so I swing in combat phase prior to casting the Shadow of the Grave, awaiting damage to go through. Post-combat I cast SOTG in order to refill my hand and dump from it the fodder I won't be needing in the following turn. Bit of a rudimentary and super sucky Scroll Rack type of effect.

Cool take on a narset list! I know it's a pricier card to buy, but Scroll Rack is a handy card in order to free cast a high mana value card or cards that are in your hand, or stack 4 on top to make sure you don't exile creatures or lands

Timesifter is hilarious. use to have a twoheaded giant LGS and my brother had a deck where it would get Timesifter out and have me as his teamate using a deck with no lands and every possible 10+ mana card

i was gunna recommend Hidden Retreat but youd have to have a valid target. Scroll Rack is just the best option, making it more likely to get scroll rack is a good idea. glad to see someone else other then me uses Endless Horizons. Tenuous Truce is good cheap draw and will instantly make one player of the game your friend, either give it to the most combat focused deck to avoid their wrath or give it to the player thats struggling, same thing applies with Loran of the Third Path but with an added bonus of removal. Bottled Cloister is good if your playgroup has a lot of handhate. if you want a good board wipe i cant imagine a better one then Out of Time, a little mean since it just makes everyones commander vanish forever until someone gets rid of out of it. other then that your deck is well put together and unique

Hi,

This looks nice. I've got some ideas based on my own Krenko deck, in case you're interested:

• I'm really missing a Sol Ring in here. It's such an amazing rock that I can't imagine leaving it out of any commander deck. Maybe your local format forbids its use (that happens sometimes), but if not than I'd really recommend you consider putting it in.
• In its current form, the deck hardly contains any resources for additional draw. I would seriously consider adding Idol of Oblivion, because it's extremely on-theme for this deck. Other nice resources for additional draw/filtering could be Sensei's Divining Top or maybe Scroll Rack.
• Goblin Sharpshooter could fit well in this deck. It can also combo-off when combined with Kiki-Jiki and Thornbite Staff.
• Personally I'd choose Shared Animosity over Coat of Arms, as the latter also helps other decks using creatures of similar types, but to each his/her own of course.

Hope this helped and good luck with your deck. Enjoy the holidays!

Buried Ruin is surprisingly useful.

If I go Land Tax route then I have to add Scroll Rack

Planar Portal can grab 4 draw spells and useful removal. I think I see your point though. Bridge grabs a permanent that draws cards and puts it directly into play.
