Kaladesh is coming up, and Panharmonicon and Cataclysmic Gearhulk will be going into the deck once I can get them.

TheFanatic: Any further thoughts on Reflector Mage? A good inclusion or a more expensive answer compared to i.e. Swords to Plowshares?

@illumfolly while Eldrazi Displacer's effect is obviously a perfect fit for this deck, I'm not sure that it's really playable in this particular build due to its colorless mana requirement, even with my 9 lands that are capable of producing colorless. I will certainly test it once I get my hands on one, though. I haven't yet had a chance to get any OGW cards, as I was busy during the prerelease weekend.
@Indigoindigo I think that Reflector Mage has potential, especially if you often go up against voltron style commanders. I'm not sure it quite warrants a spot in this deck, though, since it can only hit creatures and only stops one at a time, even if it for an extended period of time. I also don't ever encounter voltron decks in my playgroup, since my friends generally either play combo or value grindfest decks.

I like to think of the added colorless cost as the replacement drawback for the Soulbond trigger on Deadeye Navigator.
This card is bonkers bananas, goes infinite in 100 different ways, and is using its secret network of spies to track your IP right now, so you better prepare for the storm, it can bounce anything anywhere anytime.
In any case, there are a lot of changes that can be made to allow for colorless mana as a thing, and to take advantage of casting things from other people's libraries.

@illumfolly All good points. Picked up a prerelease promo, it's in the deck now.

Sword of the Paruns is an interesting way to go infinite with blinks, Umbral Mantle also fits this slot, and if you go infinite, you can just exile all of their creatures and hit for 21 with Roon Easily.

MasterXehanort - I'm personally a big fan of Eerie Interlude, either as a second Ghostaway or as a replacement in general, especially since you can pick and choose which creatures you blink where Ghostaway hits all. Sometimes you want to keep some guys on the field.

Eldrazi Displacer of course
