this is my longest running deck. it can be incredibly fast and incredibly effective! the lists that seem to beat animar run mucho mass creature destruction and well-timed countermagic can really hurt (as with any deck)

the purpose of this build is to create 2-3 win cons: crank up Animar, Soul of Elements until he's huge and beat down opponents, amass an army so large no one can compete, and/or combo your way into a hilarious ending

{U}{R}{G}

Infinite mana:

Animar, Soul of Elements + Palinchron

Phantasmal Image + Palinchron

Deadeye Navigator + Palinchron/Great Whale/Peregrine Drake

Animar, Soul of Elements + Temur Sabertooth + Palinchron/Great Whale/Peregrine Drake

Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger + Palinchron

Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger + Temur Sabertooth + Palinchron/Great Whale/Peregrine Drake

Cloudstone Curio + Palinchron/Great Whale/Peregrine Drake + any Clone

Animar, Soul of Elements + Cloudstone Curio + Palinchron/Great Whale/Peregrine Drake + ...just about anything

Other

Animar, Soul of Elements + Cloudstone Curio + two eldrazi and/or morph creature = infinite eldrazi shenanigans

Animar, Soul of Elements + Ancestral Statue = one big ol' animar

Animar, Soul of Elements + Earthcraft + Island + Shrieking Drake/Dream Stalker/Man-o'-War = also one big ol' animar

{U}{R}{G}

lots of etb abilities in this deck, with endless ways to have fun. definitely DOESN'T need infinite to win
