is a 9/4 unblockable with first strike.

CREATURES:
Flamespeaker Adept: The main beneficiary of all this scry. With everything else this deck offers, getting him big is quite easy.
Thassa, God of the Sea: Scry on upkeep AND can make Flamespeaker Adept unblockable. uuuuuh...yes
Omenspeaker
: Nice defender with scry 2
Prescient Chimera
: If he's on the field with Flamespeaker Adept, whenever you play an instant or sorcery, you'll scry and then scry again, making Flamespeaker Adept nice and beefy.
Sigiled Skink
: Whenever he attacks, scry? I like it.
Sigiled Starfish: Nice little consistent scry creature. Once a turn, every turn.
Stormcaller of Keranos
: A scry creature that you can pay for multiple times if you have the spare mana.
Stormchaser Chimera
: Again, this creature goes well with Flamespeaker Adept. Pay four and both get buffed.
INSTANTS:
Magma Jet: Shock and scry? Yes please.
Riddle of Lightning
: Nice burn, nice scry, and nice CMC for
Stormchaser Chimera
or if you're lucky enough, itself
Titan's Strength
: Use on Flamespeaker Adept whenever possible. It's basically a +5/+1 and first strike for the turn for only one mountain. How awesome is that?!
ENCHANTMENTS:
Aqueous Form: Make Flamespeaker Adept unblockable and an give extra scry when he attacks.
Knowledge and Power
: Basically, you always have a Shock on hand, nice for that spare mana.
