Tested at mini event next day and learned a lot about suggested cards and new interactions.

The Sylvan Caryatid did well in boosting speed. The fetches allowed me to add delve cards to the graveyard for Tasigur, the Golden Fang..

Tasigur, the Golden Fang just adds so much power to the early game after Commune with the Gods. If Assault Formation doesn't hit, the pressure is there.

The deck was already fun to play. Now it seems to react so much better.

Thanks nhallen37. I do like the variety of cards you've suggested. I may lean toward the Sylvan Caryatid to capitalize on morph mana and hexproof helps. I also like adding the fetches.

Anticipate was clutch for FNM at instant speed, but I do not need 4. Commune with the Gods could work better with a singleton Dig Through Time.

I really had fun playing the list and it performed way over my expectations. I think I will need a bit of help and testing dealing with decks from the sideboard if you have suggestions.
