A pretty straightforward aristocrats deck. With dominaria a "standard" aristocrats archetype became almost viable, one thing that prevents me from making this standard legal is a lack of a huge creature that is also a sac outlet. But with GRN even that went away, as there's izoni, thousand eyes, which exactly the type of card you want as your sac outlet, so this deck is now standard legal. I'm not sure how competitive it is though...

So basic idea is to play various thallids and other cheap creatures (with explore) and then use either Whisper's ability to cheat Izomi and other expensive creatures into play.
