Rebuilt entire deck —July 27, 2019

Previously a Maelstrom Wanderer deck, now a group-hug deck with copy spells for alternate win-cons!

The dragon tribal thing is pretty clunky but looks like it could be fun.

Most important advice: Ramp, a lot more ramp, and better ramp.

Also some card draw in the 3-5 mana range. I suggest:

Bring in: Kodama's Reach, Rampant Growth, Farseek, Growth Spasm, Explosive Vegetation, Fellwar Stone, Simic Signet, Overgrowth, Hunting Wilds, Urban Evolution, Harmonize/Concentrate/Deep Analysis/Tidings, Mulldrifter, Crystal Shard, Simic Growth Chamber, Gruul Turf, Izzet Boilerworks

Take out: slumbering dragon, mul daya channelers, mycosynth wellspring, everflowing chalice, burnished hart, kiora's follower, aether tradewinds, peel from reality, clutch of currents, temur charm, surrak dragonclaw, dragonspeaker shaman, zealous conscripts, ulamog the ceaseless hunger, nykthos shrine to nyx, rogue's passage

You are also really light on artifact and enchantment removal. You might want something like Hull Breach/Beast Within/Slice in Twain/Conclave Naturalists.

I have a maelstrom deck up, RELEASE THE WHALES, that has a lot of efficient cards in it you might want to check out.

Oh, also forgot to mention, Mystic Remora is auto-include in blue. Most efficient card draw spell in the game.

Thank you, Metavolence!

I really like the dragons, and I want to make them work with Maelstrom. I agree with your suggested cards to take out, but I'd like to keep Zealous Conscripts because of the fun-casual interaction they can make.I'll look for some artifact/ench removal as well.

All you need is 97 lands, Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Deceiver Exarch.
