Removed: Sensei's Divining Top

Added: Scroll Rack

Notes: After reading through a r/cEDH thread on the two cards, I'm convinced that Scroll Rack deserves testing over Top. I had originally avoided using the Rack due to some of its limitations: can only use it once per turn, costs 3 to cast and activate as opposed to 2, and much easier to remove. But realizing that this is a deck that shuffles itself constantly (I almost spend more time shuffling than I do playing haha) Scroll Rack seems like a very solid card to play with. I wasn't sure whether to cut Top or Brainstorm, but went with Top for now. My cuts may change after testing.

GildedGatherer Earthcraft is one of the strongest engines in the deck. It acts like a second Gaea's Cradle, except also lets me tap for blue. This deck specializes in swarming the board in a lot of low mana cost, high value creatures. Being able to use them as another resource to tap for mana greatly accelerates my game plan. And more than once I've been in situations where my lands are tapped out, but I've still got 2 creatures up for the Counterspell I have in hand. People don't mentally always realize that Earthcraft is on the field and I can hold up counter magic with untapped creatures. Doubly powerful with Seedborn Muse. I highly recommend running this card in any green deck that plays with a lot of creatures.
