Played this version against an esper control deck, and was definitely fast enough.
Now I just need to find some current-meta aggro decks to put me in my place.
Thanks! I had Negate because I wasn't really worried about what they were going to throw down creature-wise. But Dissolve makes be "better safe than sorry" right?

Naturalize might be a better chouce than reclamation sage,but since you dont run any enchantments Back to Nature is amazing

Hah! :-) Back to Nature might not be a bad idea... but it'd definitely be situational with Courser.
What do you think of Unravel the Aether instead of Naturalize? Hits gods, but just delays their utility rather than destroying...
I will admit that an additional benefit to Reclamation Sage is its innate "two-for-oneness", and it can lower my CMC curve against super speedy aggro decks in a pinch.

I run one of these decks. I have top 4'd the last month and split with 50+ players in the tournaments. I just run big stuff and if possible "combo off". I do this by playing genesis hydra or hornet queen and bouncing with temur sabertooth. Then just recast and repeat. Prophet let's you do this on their turn and I can hit a hornet queen 4+ times per turn by ramp and nykthos. I also run 4 frontier siege for the khans effect, which is a game changer.

I think 4 whisperwood is to many personally I run 3 in abzan midrange and I almost want to cut to 2 and with all the devotion why not run genesis hydra ? You would have so much to hit off of it..

The main reason I haven't put in the Genesis Hydra is the cost. This build is heavy devotion, but not FULL devotion, so it isn't full ramp. A 2-2 split might be worth looking at though...

I run simic morph, UB Mighty Morphin Power Creatures, and it seems that we're running a lot of the same cards. I like my deck because I like a themed feel, but if I had to suggest a single card Trail of Mystery fills your two drop spot and works with so many of your creatures. With 33 Creatures, Cloudform also creates the potential for some heavy hitters in the air.

I would say Dissolve at least on your sideboard. Other then that it's pretty solid.
