Animar soft lockdown. Counterspell heavy (I would like to know if I need more and what you would recommend), seeks to lockdown opponents with Opposition using tokens + Back to Basics, Vorinclex, Void Winnower and/or win with Teferi/Knowledge Pool combo.

Thinking about swapping out Arcanis for Jin-Gitaxias due to te on-theme oppressiveness of Jin.

Also I'm running all basics because of Back to Basics. I know Seedborn Muse untaps my permanents but that's only one card out of 99.
