You need to take out Training Grounds. Hashaton is a triggered ability, not an activated one, so that card essentially reads as a do-nothing card in your deck. I'd say probably add another land or so to the deck to replace it as well; even with a generally low CMC/"casting cost" for Hashaton and some of your other big play-makers, only 32 (as of posting) feels like you'll end up bricking often enough that you might end up floundering late-game.

Flarhoon13 on Imoti and the Dino Hippo--Explosive Fatties

5 months ago

Having completed my quest to play all 52 of my decks, I decided to try getting a win with all of my decks.

Aug 30

Imoti and the Dino Hippo loss Turn 4. Played no spells after a mulligan. Kurtis created infinite Basalt Monolith 1/1 tokens via Urza, Prince of Kroog, which he played Turn 1 via Jeweled Lotus, and Training Grounds. Only this deck's third or fourth loss. 0-4

Welcome to the club, DndDungeonGeist!

Aside from personal preference, which Crow_Umbra covered nicely, {G}{U} always seems to have several tricks. Training Grounds, Gilder Bairn, and Seedborn Muse are great enablers, and it's almost trivially easy to get infinite mana and/or counters, if that's your thing. Counterspell and Heroic Intervention are pretty typical protective spells. And if budget's a concern, all of these have very inexpensive replacements that work just as well most of the time. Lots of drawing, mana, and stability make this a very solid color pair for combo.

DoctorMunchiesPHD Crypt Sliver winds up being more mana efficient in board states without Training Grounds. Love Brood Sliver always have always will. Frenetic Sliver is more a last resort removal protection and more often then not is a blue card to pitch for Force of Will or used to get Dormant Sliver off the board if I need to attack to finish someone. Don't really need mana reduction from Herald's Horn and it winds up not discounting a number of important Slivers in the deck. I'm not the biggest fan of the tutors that put the card on the top of the deck and not in hand, Worldly Tutor was the closest to making the deck among your suggestions but I chose Vampiric Tutor over it, due to the greater versatility and not having to reveal the card.

Training Grounds = [sad horn sound from The Price is Right] Mystic Remora is a great replacement.

Faith's Reward I run a playset of these effects. I will cut one and add this.

Tainted AEther = Epic card. Epic tax... Wrong colors haha

Land Equilibrium = you suggested this in my {U} Skip Turns deck. This is a great tax after MLD but weak before. Going to chew on it.

Coward_Token on Murders at Karlov Manor

Spoilers are on

Hoping Nelly Borca's deck contains some new and efficient cards that give out creature tokens

Kinda wished Mirko, Obsessive Theorist also had the option to flashback an instant/sorcery for free

Missed opportunity to have a {B}{R} Massacre Girl murder commander deck to complement all those Detectives

Mastermind Plum seems fun, hope black will get more Treasure & artifact support. Obviously great with Prosper.

Juddith: feels kinda weird that Imp tokens are bigger than Devil ones but w/e. Gogo Blasphemous Act for a million hp.

Ertrata: Seems fun. Training Grounds helps here.

Nice upgrade, maybe you should consider Sundial of the Infinite for permanent copies frome Sliver Mommy. Also Training Grounds and Convergence of Dominion for cost reduction might be worth a try.

If you like, check out my Sliver deck: Mommy, Slivers!
