Simic Ramp (Standard MTG Deck)

This was the U/G ramp deck that I have been playing for the past few FNMs. It has played very well but I have not altered it for Oath. I am going to sample a mono-green variant to see how it feels. If it's bad, then I may come back to this to make some improvements.

Short version of strategy: Ramp as hard as you can, cast Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger. Then, you attack with Ulamog, and cast another the same turn. By this point, you are exiling lands and setting yourself up for extra turns with Part the Waterveil. As with any slow green deck, the Jaddi Offshoot is there to keep you alive and works very well with Nissa's Renewal. I found that it was much more help to take some creature damage, not blocking withe the Offshoot because it will pay you back later. Nissa, Vastwood Seer can soak up some valuable removal from your opponent and acts as card draw in her 'walker form. Kiora, Master of the Depths is card draw and ramp in a single card. Finally, sometimes, your opponent has all of the answers for your creatures. Lumbering Falls can provide some nice, hexproof, extra damage and Ugin, the Spirit Dragon will ping your opponent to death 3 at a time, or just clear the board.

Game Day Win — Feb. 17, 2016

Edit

So I decided to update this deck list to the one that I actually won my local game day with. It went 2-0 against black/colorless eldrazi, mid-range Izzet, Mardu superfriends w/ Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury (I have never seen this before but it was awesome to play against), and 4-color Rally. It was a very cool experience and Ugin, the Spirit Dragon saved the day more than once. If nothing else, this is a great place to start if you want to try a ramp variant.
