I'm new to MTG, and this is my first constructed deck, inspired by the Gatecrash Simic starter deck. The goal is to use Master Biomancer + Vorel of the Hull Clade
, with the help of Renegade Krasis's ability, to accelerate evolve on a large number of creatures at once. I would greatly appreciate any comments, criticisms, and/or suggestions!
//Creatures
Cloudfin Raptor: early game evolve fodder, crucial for its flying
Elvish Mystic: helps with mana acceleration to get creatures out as early as possible and the evolve train rolling
Gyre Sage: present for the same reasons as Elvish Mystic, but more for mid-late game
Zameck Guildmage: solid 2 mana card for a counter/evolve deck
Renegade Krasis: one of the stars of this deck, as it evolves other creatures when its own evolve is triggered
Vorel of the Hull Clade: The ability to double counters is always great
Master Biomancer: this card gives a second wind to creatures that may have stopped evolving for lack of higher power creatures being brought out to the battlefield. All around awesome
Kalonian Hydra: the big baddie that makes all the other creatures soon-to-be big baddies
Prime Speaker Zegana: cycle through a potentially huge amount of cards to give some steam to the late game
Progenitor Mimic: combos well with whatever you have out on the board; would work particularly well doubling Master Biomancer
//Non-creature spells
Rapid Hybridization: an offense against creatures with special abilities that are particularly effective against this deck (e.g. flying, deathtouch)
Biomass Mutation: Can either beef up low-powered creatures w/ counters, or make high-powered creatures w/ evolve less powerful, to trigger evolve as lower-powered creatures are being brought out
Setessan Tactics: Also good for creatures with flying, or creatures w/ special abilities that prove difficult for this deck
Simic Charm: a swiss army knife that can pump, protect, or bounce creatures as the situation demands
