Latest batch o' cards —April 17, 2015

-1 Elvish Visionary, -1 Burnished Hart, -1 Biomass Mutation, -1 Resolute Archangel, -1 Wonder, -1 Island

+1 Woodfall Primus, +1 Wall of Blossoms, +1 Sudden Disappearance, +1 Strionic Resonator, +1 Sundial of the Infinite, +1 Rogue's Passage

Replaced Elvish Visionary with Wall of Blossoms because a 0/4 is usually more relevant than a 1/1, might consider having both in at some point though.

Replaced Burnished Hart with Sundial of the Infinite because I felt like this deck has enough mana ramp and Sundial gives really cheap removal.

Replaced Biomass Mutation with Sudden Disappearance because flavor and versatility. Biomass Mutation is a pure wincon whereas Sudden Disappearance can be a board blink for you, making your opponents' creatures disappear while you swing for damage, or destroying all of your opponent's non-land permanents with Sundial of the Infinite.

Replaced Wonder with Strionic Resonator for flavor reasons and versatility again. Not sure if this is the right choice, but I feel like it helps with the combo-y flavor of the deck and gives you a lot more options as opposed to all flying creatures (if your opponents don't have grave hate and you can get Wonder in the graveyard).

Replaced Resolute Archangel with Woodfall Primus because of play experience. Most of the people I play with will either win with a one turn combo or with commander damage, neither of which Resolute Archangel help against. Woodfall Primus on the other hand can be useful throughout the whole game as removal and as a semi-decent body for damage/blocking.

Replaced Island with Rogue's Passage because I still think I have enough basic lands to not mana screw myself (and protect against non-basic land hate) and Rogue's Passage helps push in some extra damage (probably from Roon himself). Also I'm pretty sure I'm putting Brago, King Eternal in this deck and Rogue's Passage will help immensely with that.

Last two cards I really want for this deck are Ghostway and Brago, King Eternal (and maybe Venser, Shaper Savant) then I feel like I can just move onto improving the land base!

I hear Palinchron does some work with Deadeye Navigator.

(Hint hint...it gives you infinite mana)

MetalDivinity Oh man... that's way too sick!

The cost is pretty steep, but for infinite mana I'd pay that price!

Only reservations I have getting it is how much my playgroup will like it; or rather how much will they hate it. If they feel like it's too cheaty or un-fun I won't pick it up, but otherwise you can believe I want that card!

Thanks as always =)
