Maybe Nimbus Maze is just too similar to the Tainted Cycle? Honestly i'm just as surprised as you that this wasn't completed as well.

While checking out your deck page my malwarebytes is going crazy stating that the page you use that's hosting your wallpaper is a Trojan. You should be hosting your deck page's wallpaper on something you positively control - that's just best practice. I'm going to assume you're simply not trying to host malicious code, correct? Just in case i'm crazy i'm going to ask for confirmation from Epochalyptik - do you see any warning from your anti-malware?

You're a monster. I love this deck.

NeverCloud,

+1 from me, and I left a comment on your deck page. I look forward to what you think of my suggestions! As for everyone else, I have a deck i'm trying to make work and am unsure as to if i'm missing something. It's my love letter to all things Dinosaur with my favorite dino at the helm - Zacama, Primal Calamity. I present to all:

Hi NeverCloud,

I am always a fan of Skittles, and Poison (aka Infect/Toxic) and am happy to see yet another deck in my favorite archetypes. First bit of advice I must give you is that you must build a proper deck description. You don't need to build a whole primer, but you need to inform the visitor to your page of what cards/synergies are important. Is this deck meant for a 4 player pod? Single player? What kind of decks do you want to match this deck up against?

As for card recommendations, I understand you are going for a more stax (shout out to that foil tangle wire btw, I have one of my own and I absolutely adore that card) approach but I think having a bit of ramp may help you have more consistent games. I suggest the following:

• Crypt Ghast - a mana doubler in monoblack is always worth consdering.
• Cabal Coffers - The "mate" if you will to the already included Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth. It's great consistent ramp that I highly recommend.
• Sceptre of Eternal Glory - a strictly better Gilded Lotus for mono colored decks.
• Canoptek Wraith - A goofy ramp option in monoblack. I think it's definitely worth experimenting with.
• Demonic Tutor - the strictly better Diabolic Tutor. On that note, there's also Vampiric Tutor and Imperial Seal.

I'm curious as to why you lean more heavily into a discard theme as opposed to a voltron or proliferation subtheme? On that note, I do have some card suggestions for you:

• Sword of Feast and Famine - this helps you break parity with Tangle Wire and Static Orb in play. Unfortunately, yes you can't target it with Hatred or Howl from Beyond but I think that's a small price to pay to be able to get all of your lands to untap after just one attack.

• Phyresis Outbreak - this card gets poison counters on opponents without targeting them, and is only amplified in efficiency by your commander after it takes just one swing against an opponent. It may be slower than what you're looking for, but worth considering.

That's it from me, I don't want to inundate you with card options. But I am genuinely curious as to how your games look, and what your usual paths to victory are.
