Cloudfin Raptor Jesus says Evolution is real.

After many revisions, I have decided to base this deck on the usage of the evolve mechanic. I have looked into undying creatures, but to stay with the upcoming standard rotation I feel that undying would simply hinder my progression. This is supposed to be a Standard deck, so please exclude any old cards that you feel should be added.

The strategy I have is to conserve mana and grow my creatures into monsters of destruction. Gyre Sage starts up my mana harvest and it has great synthesis with Rengade Krasis and Master Biomancer, guaranteeing rapid and efficient use of Evolve. Bred for the Hunt helps my card advantage and is good when paired with Elusive Krasis. Hand of Binding is also a good fit for him because he is unblockable. The Spell Ruptures are this deck's main form of countering spells. To play my holiest card in the deck (Cloudfin Raptor), I split the lands slightly towards Islands so I can bring it out on the first or second turn. Any Questions?
