A deck I have been playing with for a little while, tested with proxies before KTK came out and now that the cards are here this is what i have. The deck provides strong mid and late game power without being ran over by the early game aggro decks.

Played it at FNM and at a Sunday tourny and went 4-0 both times. Now i just want to hear any ideas on how to tweak or change anything people have seen while playing with or against this deck.

While watching SCG Open events i saw a lot of people getting super low due to pain lands and mana cons but i don't see why, i understand the need to get an untapped land the turn you need it but with the set-up i have here i almost never was mana starved for a colour or was faced with too many tapped lands.
