Ive been tinkering with this Animar deck for a few years now. Ive come to really truly love the style of play it permits. The insane trigger marathons and playing half my deck in one turn is just a great feeling. Even if it all gets board wiped.

With the exception of the infinite +1/+1 counter combo using animar and Ancestral Statue I dont intend to use infinite combo win conditions in this deck as I play casually. Thought I may acquire a Purphoros, God of the Forge later just in case I change my mind.

Currently the deck only has 32 lands but somehow seems to run perfectly fine.

I am looking for any straight upgrades or good alternatives to any given card in the deck. Any sorcery, instantly, or other effect that I can put on a creature, helps.
