Nice build.

I’ve been playing an optimized Kumena deck as well.

I’d recommend more +1/+1 counter support such as Doubling Season and its progeny. While you’re at it, Deep Glow Skate.

I see you’re considering Dramatic/Reversal—-it works well with Kumena but you will need more mana rocks, especially ones that tap for 2+.

Your counterspell/control suite is sub-optimum. It doesn’t need to be expensive. Try Miscast, Voidslime, and Trickbind.

Your card draw engine could use some pep. Try Coastal Piracy, Bident of Thassa, and Reconnaissance.

I hope this helps.

Cool token deck. I’m going to borrow from it for my Stangg deck.

Check out my Stangg deck and see if there’s anything helpful to to you.

Thanks.

whitmjo1, thank you again.

You’re right—-hope of Ghirapur should be included. That’s a great card for this style of play.

Recon Mission and Bident provide excellent card draw. Unfortunately they are unplayable with Gaddock Teeg on board and also suffer from my tax on con-creature spells. Bident is also $1.5. I’ve chosen Toski and Deepfathom Skulker for similar effects that put more bodies on the field and on a budget

Sakiko looks great but is a whopping $2.80 and doesn’t get me closer to my win conditions. I’m more likely to experiment with her in my expensive Derevi deck :)

Keep the recommendations coming if you have more! These are golden!

whitmjo1, thank you for your honest feedback. I don’t disagree with you at all. You will notice that Selkie, Archetype, Wonder, and Familiar all contribute to the an overall theme of evasive creatures.

Evasion is our primary means of exploiting Derevi’s tap/untap triggers, enabling our card draw, and crippling our opponents with a stasis lock.

I do not disagree that these are suboptimal selections for a competitive deck. That said, they are nonetheless carefully selected and serve their purposes modestly.

My question to you is this:

What would replace them with on the same budget?

Thanks!
