I'd drop the Boon of Erebos for either Gods Willing or Eidolon of Blossoms . Nice deck, though. +1

Edit: And if you add Blossoms, don't forget to sideboard Spirit of the Labyrinth .

Good point. Gods Willing seems great. Thanks Man! :D

Sorry, I forget sometimes, I got you now. One more thing I noticed is you're pretty slim on Green mana with only 7 sources. That might be tough to consistently cast Boon Satyr every time. Maybe trade 2 Caves of Koilos for 2 Temple of Plenty or 2 Temple of Malady .

I dig it. Budget Junk that is super-competitive. Easy upvote from me. I'd say maybe swap out Nyxborn Shieldmate for Spiteful Returned . MAYBE.

WOW. Not so fast I'm not about to spend $18 a piece on a card that helps only a little.

Spiteful is to off curve. It is good though...

I don't know standard too well, but if you are running pain seer Springleaf Drum might be a good add.

Scorprix says... #12

generally doesn't help. I have tested it before.

Didgeridooda says... #13

Does that land base work well with 3 colors that require double mana each?

July 29, 2014 3:29 p.m.

Scorprix says... #14

Yes, it works.

Maybe add some scry lands. Even though they slow you down a little they really help make sure your draws are relevant for the match.

Didgeridooda- Four Mana Confluences does wonders. I only run a pair, and two makes the difference between a win and a loss in my deck here- All that Matters is Power. But the rampant ramping in my deck also makes a difference, I don't doubt. With so much of this deck's synergy costing life, is there a place for a one-off Whip of Erebos , Scorprix? I know that you just said that Spiteful Returned is even too slow for this deck, but even as a sideboard option, it messes with games that try to drag you out into the midgame and lategame. It basically eliminates a resource requirement for your deck.

@MattTheNinja & @TheNinjaJesus (SO MANY NINJAS!!!):

Scrys are slow, but you're right they often pay off, just not immediately. Thx! I will consider them... : )

Good point. I will add the whip to the side. Thx! : )

Banishing Light for removal?

Scorprix says... #19

Sorry, but it's to slow. : (

In a deck this heavy with enchantments you certainly want Eidolon of Blossoms to get a card-draw engine going to continue to supply you with gas to stay above water as the game goes long. Maindecking more removal spells is a very good idea, as Banishing Light and Hero's Downfall deal with a bevy of must-answer cards, and you need a way to interact before sideboards against decks that can sometimes overwhelm you.

+1, a very interesting build.

I can dig it. I'm not big into Standard, so this ain't exactly my scene, but it seems nifty. +1.

@thispersonisagenius: The problem with Eidolon of Blossoms is that it takes 4 mana for a 2/2. With 4 mana I can do better things. Removal-wise, what do you suggest?... Thanks by the way! :D

@erabel: Thanks Man! :D

July 29, 2014 10:27 p.m.

I like it
