Wavebreak Hippocamp goes well with Slitherwisp.

Frantic Inventory could be helpful.

And every Slitherwisp deck needs a Shadowspear.

Fun looking deck.

Cloudy2024 I actually ended up moving Tishana's Tidebinder to the main and sideboard like you mentioned earlier because of a massive shift away from energy aggro and murktide to combo/midrange in the meta's I am playing in. Snapcaster Mage is only really worth it as a 1 of as I dont end up with a lot of instants in my gy, it feels really good as a 1 of to lock up the game if i get a Waterlogged Teachings  ^Flip off with Slitherwisp on board and sometimes flips games but drawing multiple wont give me a lot of selection. I used to run Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd but took it out because of how dead it was to energy and other heavy board matchups like hollow one and merfolk; I will consider trying it again as a 1 or 2 of since there are some games that i can curve Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd into Teferi, Time Raveler or paired with Samwise the Stouthearted it can have massive value spikes and maybe it could just end up being the thing to solve my domain matchup at the moment. I'm probably going to also cut my Damping Spheres as I am finding the matchups they are good in are already not that bad compared to Eldrazi or Domain, and will probably add another Consign to Memory and something to help vs Leyline of the Guildpact Scion of Draco

I bring you Enduring Innocence, Welcoming Vampire, Canoptek Spyder, Slitherwisp and Ephara, God of the Polis.

Also I realized today that Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir actually does give our creatures flash, so he'd have excellent synergy with Cunning Nightbonder, Slitherwisp, etc.

LynxGoddess Haha yea I had come back to suggest Mari, the Killing Quill too but I saw they're on your list! I have been looking for more instant speed protection for Alela and I really like Blessing of Leeches, I'm going to make space for it.

Once you playtest let me know how cards like Slitherwisp work out, I'm interested if there's enough flash synergy- If only Leyline of Anticipation and Vedalken Orrery were worded differently!

Magic_Aids says... #1 Let me know what you Big Boys think of Orcish Bowmasters and Samwise the Stouthearted in a Slitherwisp flash deck! Did the deck perform better or worse than you expected!? :D

Have you considered Slitherwisp? I don't know if it's powerful enough on its own for your deck, but I am trying to make dimir Faeries work and am now more leaning towards "Flash tribal" and I must say Slitherwisp is pretty strong. Game one the opponent always leaves it be because he doesn't know what it is, and game two and three it always gets removed on sight.

Let me know what you think!
