Not a problem at all...hope it works well for you.

Forewarning: this will seem very all over the place and each section will be a different consideration for the deck.

My thoughts would be to work in the Birds of Paradise over Llanowar Elves to smooth out your mana more. Granted working out the mana for your deck will be a lot easier when you get a mainboard established.

I will caution you that if one of your bane alley brokers die/leave the battlefield you will lose access to all the cards exiled by it. Extra copies of this card cannot get cards from a previous one. With that being said, you should probably have several ways to protect it/your other cards you are running. Doing this will probably lean your deck towards being primarily u/b and might make it worth cutting green out all together.

Bomb wise, I will suggest Doom Whisperer since its surveil ability can control the cards you remove to bane alley more to your liking.

Overall my thoughts would be to cut green and go into more of a u/b control style of deck that uses bane alley as card advantage. This will allow you to go into a much easier mana base with Polluted Delta, Watery Grave, and Drowned Catacomb to make your mana super smooth.

I think you could add the 3rd wrench mind in place of a ravens crime. My reasoning is that there isnt a lot of artifact based decks in the format so you will likely get the 2 for 1 value. Not only that but ravens crime retrace is just as useful with 1 or 4 in the yard.

I think you are being too greedy with the sundering titans and 4 mycosynth golem. There will be a lot of times they will be stranded in your hand. Try a set of Tooth of Chiss-Goria in their place. I am not saying remove all of them but rather trim sundering titan down to a 2 of and drop 1 of the mycosynth golems. Perhaps one of the gitaxian probes as well. Good luck with the deck.

I think you would do well to include a couple more dredge cards and another card or two towards discard. Try moving a couple of your reanimation targets to the sb for specific matchups. Another thing to look at might be dropping some of your removal to work in a Goryo's Vengeance or 2. If you can reanimate an early Grislebrand, his draw ability could help you dredge a large amount.

This is an interesting topic and if I would have to guess that fetch/shock is mostly needed for decks that have a lot of different color requirements through an entire game. I'd say filter lands are for less color intensive deck and fastlands are probably in between the two.

In the really old days of magic when only the first of a legendary stayed in play you would have been correct. But do you have any other ideas for the deck?

The legendary rule is why it works. When the second mox comes in untapped you sacrifice the first one.

Personally I don't like the toughness decks like this but I do like the theme and write up so upvote from me.

If you imprinted squee and then got that same squee back from exile you wouldn't have anything imprinted on anvil anymore. Therefore you wouldn't get any discounts.

I'm intrigued by this idea but I don't have a current idea on how to help you. I will suggest that if you do try to be more graveyard focused in the rug colors, try Genesis.

If you add a playset of 9 lives to this you will be at 70 cards. It would probably be better to trim out some things and get as close to the base 60 as you can.
