This deck is designed to get big creatures out fast, but can last into the long game if necessary.

So many combos in Standard right now. Overwhelm your opponents quick, and get them on the defensive to absolutely destroy them later.

Key Combos:

Ensoul Artifact + Ornithopter allows for a turn 2 swing for 5 flying, and possibly a turn 3 swing for 10 flying if two ornithopters make it out between turn 1 & 2 and 2 ensoul arifacts.

Military Intelligence + Ornithopter Swinging with 2 creatures on turn two, even if no damage is dealt, still allows for card draw.

Darksteel Citadel + Ensoul Artifact 5/5 indestructible artifact creature.

Fathom Mage + Genesis Hydra + Kruphix, God of Horizons Put out a massive Genesis Hydra, all incoming creatures trigger Fathom Mage evolve, and draw that many cards. This combined with Chasm Skulker has the potential to be huge. Combine this with Prophet of Kruphix to do it all on your opponents turn to swing for the win on your own turn.

Bioshift + Chasm Skulker + Fathom Mage Move counters from Chasm Skulker to Fathom Mage, draw massive cards, put counters back on Chasm Skulker. Additionally, in response to a Doom Blade or Hero's Downfall on my Chasm Skulker, I could flash in another Chasm Skulker, bioshift counters to my Fathom Mage, and beef up my new Chasm Skulker.

I could really use some sideboard help. Please make suggestions that would help me to round this thing out.

As always, +1's are greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
