Wow, really nice!
+1 from me
You might be able to use Kruphix, God of Horizons for hand size as well as mana ability.
For draw:
Arcanis the Omnipotent, for infinite draw if you have your combo out and large draw even if you don't.
Primordial Sage or Recycle could be other options though.
Goodluck with this deck!

Standard, moose. Only Kruphix is playable and he's not good. I don't need infinte hand size, and storing mana is not very impactful. I would rather Xenagos, the Reveler because it can generate mana and is useful besides.

I love the deck! Built mine, (if you feel like looking Combo Out like a Pimp and Slap Someone ) and won my FNM last week. My big star was actually Shaman of the Great Hunt. He brought my library to my hand. My main boarded Crater's Claws also did a significant amount of winning for me. By that I mean after I drew my deck, I would claw for 20 (or in the case of lifegain 120) and win. My LGS needs to board in some negates...

I love this deck and I havn't really been following the comments, but talking this over with some friends last night, and his response was: "Why not add Purphoros, God of the Forge?" (Outpost Siege (dragons) might work aswell, although you would have to repeat the trick more often...)
That way, you dont even need to attack when you keep on bouncing around. And since it's another enchantment, maybe Kruphix's Insight might work aswell, to find the enchantment combo pieces earlier?
January 28, 2015 2:24 a.m.
Purphoros is an idea, maybe a good one, though it doesn't do much besides reduce life, whereas other cards have added purpose. Outpost Siege is a little better because the Khan side is also useable.
Kruphix's Insight is bad. I realized that after too many times of paying 3, revealing 6, and finding 0. It's also useless if I already have Ascendancy.

Prophet, maybe. It makes things faster, but I feel a little less consistent (doesn't herself help the win, nor provide cards). Changing up the build to take advantage is a good idea.
Mystic, Simply because it seemed to test better. Specifically, without 10 tappers, I frequently got stuck at 3 mana. But also, it has an incredible devotion-to-cmc ratio (1:1) and that accelerates ramp. Against Aggro, reaching 4 fast means early Polukranos and Nylea's Disciple (i.e. Win). Against slower decks, being faster helps win sooner before they take over. Speed is Invaluable in a green ramp mirror. It's a standard part of Green Devotion for a reason.
Whisperwood Elemental, i agree. I put one in my Chord of Calling version, but even though it's slow to win i want more. At least sideboarded for all these controlly builds floating around now.

I just played roughly this list at my local FNM and went 4-0. It's a blast to play -- thanks for putting the list together!

how is it working out with 4 fetches and only 3 targets for said fetches?
January 31, 2015 8:19 a.m.
By the time you draw the 4th, you don't need any more land. There is the extremely rare case of like a turn 5 fetch land when you already played or fetched 3 basics, but it's almost never.

DUDE... I saw this deck before fate reforged.. thought it was sickly awesome... now? IT'S REALLY AWESOME... I love the incredible combo of adding in the saber tooth. It really adds to this decks complete domination!

How has this deck faired in your meta? i noticed the elvish mystics re-entered your deck and things like Kiora's Follower disappeared.
I played a variant of this deck, and it mixed rather poorly with the local meta (combos hate disruptions) and i usually didn't get the speed to get going ... so Temur Aggromancy was born. It still holds all the combo pieces but seems to match up better against faster and burn-i-er decks.
January 31, 2015 11:01 p.m.
It's been fun, works like a perfectly respectable deck for me. I added Mystics for 2 reasons: to keep up with Aggro, and to ensure I get to 4 mana in good time. The list here is slightly outdated. I'm keeping it as is, because it represents a certain pinnacle of synergy towards comboing, but I've moved to a list with more midrange power. Temur Ascendancy COMBO redux. I see you've done the same but with different card choices.
January 31, 2015 11:34 p.m.
By the way, I'm pretty confident such is the right way forward. All the pros who looked at the GP decks preferred Toepfner's over Page's because it was more like a consistent green devotion list. Now it could just be bias based on they are used to green devotion, but I think they have expertise to usually recognize what works best, more than me anyway.

Not sure if this was already stated, but having only 3 possible lands to fetch and then having 4 fetchlands makes me feel like if you play and draw into a dead fetch you'll probably want to cry. I imagine it's like drawing into a dead Urborg or Nykthos

Updated the list. Boon Satyr and Arbor Colossus are aimed to shore up aggro matches, but also control by being a little more individually aggressive cards.
February 5, 2015 5:08 p.m.
Current list rocked. Hornet Queen > Arbor Colossus in matches where you want it. Aggro and midrange was successfully conquered. Control was not seen.

Wow, I love this deck!!! I feel this deck will do good in many match ups currently in standard except against Abzan Aggro. Maybe more sideboard against that?? Also, just in case you didn't know your deck has 61 cards in it,
February 7, 2015 9:33 a.m.
I agree. I'm not sure what to do against Abzan aggro, other than Setessan Tactics and Nylea's Disciple, and Disciple is only semi-effective as it's hard to stabilize against their creature set.
I know about the 61 cards. There just wasn't anything I wanted to cut.

Singing bell strike + kametra' s acolyte is also intimate mana if you have enough devotion
February 9, 2015 12:24 a.m.
Yes, it says that in my description under Massive RAMP. It left the list because most experts didn't like it much. But also, unlike evey other card, it is not super effective when not used to combo. It can tap an enemy creature, but the worst offenders (Anafenza, Hordeling Outburst) don't much care. UB control laughs when we play it.
I still have the card in mind, and maybe it's a good sideboard option somewhere.
