This deck is a blast to play and leads to some tense games and explosive draws; but I don't know if Ensoul Artifact is good enough even as an enchantment to justify twelve slots between Springleaf, Ornithopter, and Ensoul Artifact.

I think that you could get just as much or more utility, longevity, and explosiveness out of 4 Elvish Mystics, 2 Forests, 3 more Eidolon of Blossoms (Eidolon feels ridiculously abusive with all the cantripping enchantments! I love it in this shell!), and some number of Kiora. Curving from Skulker into Kiora feels very good; she immediately pumps him, draws gas, and occasionally ramps; while safeguarding your 'chump attackers' for Military Intelligence. Against control, she provides you with board presence even if something unfortunate like Anger of the Gods comes down and exiles your Skulker without generating tokens. I would recommend a 'bigger' mana base and something to actually ramp into before you do this; I guess, as she's not overwhelmingly powerful, but something to consider at least in the sideboard. Courser of Kruphix has great synergy with Kiora; allowing you to play two lands off the top of your library to dig deeper, is an enchantment for Blossoms, and last but not least, is the best 3 drop green creature in the format right now.

The addition of a bigger, stabler mana base allows you to replace Scourge of Skola Vale, at least partially, with a copy or two of Genesis Hydra. Because of the wording on Genesis Hydra , similar to Kozilek, Butcher of Truth , you get the effect when you place the Hydra on the stack. Whether or not the hydra is countered, you first search the top X cards of your library and play a card - relevant with Hardened Scales; you put down Scales first, THEN the hydra enters the battlefield and has its counters modified by Scales. In a way, it's the opposite of Scourge - generating card advantage instead of costing you card advantage.

Basically, it's a choice between remaining as an aggressive deck that goes under midrange with evasive or otherwise frustrating threats, reminiscent of MonoBlue Devotion from last standard with great synergy but individually poor card quality, vulnerable to blowouts against Thoughtseize stripping away your best threat leaving a hand full of enablers without a target; or taking it in the direction I outlined above, in which case you'd still be aggressive but not hyper-aggro, with bigger game, higher individual card quality and contingencies against spot removal. Personally, I always stick with card advantage and avoiding 2 - for - 1s, but this is a personal preference that ties into my playstyle.

why is there Fall of the Hammer ? in here

It's in the description but it's to take a beefy skulker or skola vale and slapping some tokens out of the nest.

Ooo, that hall of triumph was a good idea

It adds a nice form to those 1/1a function.

+1 Wow! Dude I love this deck! I suggest putting in Jalira, Master Polymorphist grab all the stuff u need from your deck since she can't hit herself

yeah but its your only red card and you can only play it with conflux but if it works in here use it

Springleaf and I draw most of the deck with the can trips

would you be so kind as to explain the sideboard choices a little bit? there are a few that im a bit confused about.

sIt's the same sideboard from horizons the basic concept is to full board in for a midrangy stomper. Not sure where I should go with the sideboard now. Suggestions appreciated.

If you're playing red, may as well throw in Purphoros, God of the Forge to compliment all your tokens

Have you considered Setessan Tactics over Fall of the Hammer ? casting it on multiple deathtouch tokens is always nice.

Draw from the Depths is my deck which is very, VERY similar, a lot of similar ideas going on. Mine is a bit more aggressive and draw heavy. If there is one thing I would add to mine that I see in yours, it's Fall of the Hammer and Hornet's Nest. Its really neat interaction.

Hooded Hydra

Nylea's Presence on there land

i made a similar deck maybe check it out?

Ensoul Artifact seems out of place to me. There aren't a whole lot of targets for it, which makes me feel as if it would frequently be a dead draw. Is there a combo I'm missing or is it just personal preference? Great deck though, seems to play pretty well.

Working in darksteel is something I'm planning on but the current 10 targets do me justice I feel though I may just love the card and ornithopter has been my homeboy since wayback. PORNITHOPTER maybe just sentimental. Side note: would ensouled bident get the buff from hall o triumph?

Completely missed the fact that Ornithopter was there, that makes a huge difference in my evaluation. Go ahead and ignore my naysaying.

have you considered using Kiora's Follower here? I could see it having some synergy with scourge and possibly the drum, and the lands obviously.

I have but I generally won't have multiple targets for scourge to consume though it would leave me the ability to swing after he feast it would be a bit more juggling than I'm interested in and th swap out I fear would dilute the curve. Thank though I will put it on the back burner. +1 to you sir

lol, thank you very much.

Since you already play red maybe put a Purphoros, God of the Forge in there?
