Add all the draw power —March 6, 2016

As I've previously mentioned, I wanted to add more surge enablers which means some low CMC spells. I've also added a Time Spiral because it's a sweet card and works well with High Tide, Extraplanar Lens and Caged Sun. Blue Sun's Zenith was swapped for Coastal Piracy since it's more reliable draw and works with the Deadeye Navigator + Great Whale infinite mana combo. Here's the full list of changes:

OUT

IN

Tuning in this way is turning the deck into more of a blue deck with sea creature finishers vs. a primarily sea creature deck, but I'm okay with this. I think decks should evolve over time, and this list is no different as it's evolved into the current sea creature control list it is today.

I feel a lot of the original flavor is here, but I'd like to get opinions on the more recent changes, especially from the people who have been following the list for a while. Also, I would like to get Mystic Remora back in, so any suggestions for cuts would be appreciated!

It's not really OVERwhelming...

It just sits there, and kind of..... whelms...

Rather awkward, you know.

I imagine Quest for Ula's Temple would be quite fitting in here. It definitely pulls off stupid things.

Proteus Staff seems a little too random in this deck even with the scry ability, but I guess that could be fun. Homarid Spawning Bed seems neat, but I wouldn't have a plan for the tokens other than to have a wall of chumps and maybe some extra card draw from Bident of Thassa and Coastal Piracy. It's for sure a prime candidate for the honorable mentions section, which is where Quest for Ula's Temple resides since I found it underwhelming because of the lower creature count I run.

And now I'm actually considering putting in Archetype of Imagination since it's a win condition. If it does go in, I don't want this to be a slippery slope of good stuff being added to the deck.
