Keep in mind this is my first standard deck and any help would be greatly appreciated!

This deck is post-ravnica and comes to about $100 when optimized in TCG player.

Turn One: I have enough low drop cards to ensure some T1 activity

• Elvish Mystic for early ramp

• Hero of Leina Tower for some early damage and can be buffed to a 10/10 or higher with a single solidarity of hero's later in the game.

• Ornithopter Chump blocks and can be scary when you include Ensoul Artifact

Turn Two: This can be a bit different depending on what you dropped T1.

• Ensoul Artifact is top priority if you can cast it.

• Chasm Skulker can be cast if you dropped elvish on T1

• Ordeal of Thassa on Ornithopter or Hero of Leina Tower + swinging will deal some early damage and get you closer to the draws.

• If you can't do either of these just drop more T1 stuff and pass.

Turn Three into late game: Things can vary wildly depending on what you dropped. For this section i'm just going to go over some card interactions.

• Divination and Ordeal of Thassa will be your draw engines for this game. Use them when you can to pump chasm or draw chasm.

• Chasm Skulker is a must for this deck to work later in the game. Protect him. he will become a board presence eventually even if you aren't doing anything with him, drawing a Aqueous Form or solidarity of hero's can turn him into a game winning threat.

• Horizon Chimera and Kiora, the Crashing Wave are key late game cards with one point in mind, Survival. Horizon will give you health with every draw while kiora will take aggro off you and shut down their mid game fatty all while keeping the looming threat of endless 9/9's over their heads.

• Prognostic Sphinx at the top of the curb will really let you control what you draw. Top decking lands is really not an option at the end of the game.

• Void Snare for some control over the course of the game.

Really want this deck idea to be successful. If anyone has any feedback please comment below!
