The aim is to get Xyris out on the board as quickly as possible. Draw cards for counter magic and create snake tokens. Have counter magic up for only one reason and that is to keep Xyris on the board. What opponent doesn't love drawing cards? Wheel effects will help you throw 21 snakes up and then we buff them from, 1) Shared Animosity 2) Beastmaster Ascension 3) Ogre Battledriver 4) Eldrazi Monument - NEVER drop one of those win cons until it is your turn to attack with creatures, you will only show your opponent the threat of little sneaky sneks. If we have none of those it is ok, we still have Purphoros, God of the forge to drain opponents life after one wheel or teferi's puzzle box. We also still have goblin bombardment for when there is a board wipe and we just need to fling sneaky snekss at someone. If you build this deck it is one of the most fun to ever play. Cheers!

PS You don't need to have all of these expensive lands, play another one as long as it doesn't come into play tapped. Never play bounce lands, one strip mine or wasteland can set you back pretty far. There are a few new wheels out there Wheel of Misfortune and Day's Undoing and Time Reversal Plenty of other options, make the deck yours with substitutions. The only thing we will have our friends saying is, "I'm tired of these m'fuggin snakes on this m'fuggin plane"! :)
