Some big-ish changes —July 23, 2024
I have been looking at recent cards and "borrowing" ideas from others decks, and I have decided to make a couple changes to this deck.
Beastcaller Savant is out, Sanctum Weaver is in --I will lose haste, but will gain a minimum of 2 mana per Weaver, more if i had one of my other enchantments out. Plus this will open up Shaman and Elf for other cards
Serpent of Yawning Depths is out, Lumbering Megasloth --Making a couple creatures unblockable isnt an amazing ability, most of them have trample anyways and the Megasloth could potentally cost only 2 CMC
Sea-Dasher Octopus is out, Silverback Elder in --The artifact destruction ability might be nice, and Sea-Dasher has had mixed results in this deck.
Inkwell Leviathan is leaving for Ancient Silver Dragon -Part of my move from sea creatures, the ancient dragon's draw will be very nice
1 Snow-Covered Island out, Hydroelectric Specimen Flip in --MH3 had a ton of interesting flip lands, and this guy seems like a no brainer to swap in
1 Snow-Covered Island out, Shifting Woodland comes in. --Late game the ability to copy a creature in my grave may make the difference in a game.
Second Harvest says goodbye and Pathbreaker Ibex comes on in --Giving all my creatures a boost and trample TWICE seems very nice.
And lastly, when Duskmourn comes out Manaweft Silver will be traded for Twitching Doll --The only thing that could impede the doll would be Arachnogenesis but if i am having to cast it, it probably isnt the right time for a mana dork.
haha.. i was looking at your deck right now.
I also already have a Sphinx. He is the same CMC and I have found that the additional draw and uptap steps are pretty nice.
I already have a Tyranid as well, Genestealer Patriarch, but i have found he has mixed results the few times i have seen him in play. Sporocyst might be a good substitution (3 mana = 2 lands, 5 mana = 4 lands)

Hi Hybrow, very nice deck! I've done a similar one if you want to check it The taxonomy of Volo. Did you consided Sporocyst and Consecrated Sphinx? Maybe I will replace the snake slot of my Lotus Cobra with your choice of Ice-Fang Coatl
