More ORI spoilers! —June 30, 2015

Talent of the Telepath might be making its way into the deck. It's still under consideration.

EDIT: Same goes for Pyromancer's Goggles.

Love the deck! Anything that can confidently run Epic Experiment or Eternal Dominion with good results has my respect. Have you considered Leyline of Anticipation (to play all the things at instant speed), Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir for a similar effect, while also protecting your stuff a bit, or Voidmage Husher, because recurring Stifle is surprisingly OP?

Additionally, I'd definitely main deck the Goblin Electromancer because he synergizes so well with the deck.

As for cuts, Control Magic seems a little out of place since it's not an instant or sorcery, and you already have enough of that effect. Ornate Kanzashi, while fun seems like it's a little too conditional. First you have to spend the 2 and see if you want to (or can) cast it. Then you have to actually pay for it by the end of the turn or it's gone. Which, unless your group is just a bunch of other blue red decks, then it seems like it's likely to miss a lot.

I'm going to test your suggestions out tentatively. The only one I saw that is a 100 percent definite is Leyline of Anticipation, and to be (Anne) frank, I kind of wonder why I didn't think of that before. So Control Magic got dropped for that. I'll playtest the others in various roles, and make changes accordingly.

Thanks Killkow!

Happy to help! I like voidmage husher because it hits planeswalker abilities, including ultimates, as well as Perilous Vault or similar effects, and becomes surprisingly relevant in niche scenarios.

I'm liking it more and more now. I'll find a place for it.
