---

The key card to this deck is Aluren. This card allows you to play your creatures for free at any time provided they are 3 CMC or less. Amareth being in play allows you to draw a card every time you find a creature in your top deck. This, it turns out, is not as hard to accomplish as one might suppose.

Hua Tuo, Honored Physician can put a creature in your graveyard on top of your deck, allowing you to keep going. He is especially useful if you can find a way to untap him.

Restrictions: no artifacts or other enchantments (other than Aluren) allowed unless they are already creatures. No instants, sorceries, or planeswalkers. (Except Primal Surge)

The goal is to set up a board state where you can just sling out multiple creatures in a row without having to pay the mana costs of anything you have.

Cards which thin out the lands in your deck are preferred here. The more lands you can thin out, the more likely it is you'll run into a creature each time Amareth's ability goes off. This will also make it easier to cast your commander.

Persist and undying allow you to trigger Amareth's ability without casting anything.

Possible win conditions:

-Draw out your deck with Laboratory Maniac in play.

-Pair up Silverblade Paladin with your commander and attack for commander damage. Takes two turns.

-Cast Primal Surge, put your deck into play. If Aluren is in play, Lab Maniac is in your hand, you can respond to any of the draw triggers by casting Lab Maniac with flash for free. If Lab Maniac is in your graveyard, you can use Hua Tuo at instant speed during your first main phase to put him on top of your deck in response to more than one draw trigger. Than you can cast him using Aluren in response to the other. In this situation Grand Abolisher and Dosan the Falling Leaf will prevent an opponent from disrupting your endgame.

-Quickling, Niambi, Esteemed Speaker, and Aluren: Have Quickling and Niambi bounce each other. Cast them for free once they're in your hand. You'll gain life from every time Quickling is bounced. You can do this infinite times.

If Watcher of the Spheres is in play, you can make it infinitely powerful since Quickling has flying, presumably swinging for infinite damage against one player. Champion of Lambholdt works in a similar way.

Hero of Precinct One will allow you to make infinite 1/1 tokens.
