**This Scion deck is a ramp heavy, fast combo deck that aims to end the game or start killing off opponents in the first 5 turns of the game. Depending on mulligan aggressiveness, the player can expect to cast Scion on turn 4 at the latest and start killing by turn 5 with counterspell backup. This deck differs from other competitive Scion decks in it's counterspells, heavy ramp package, and multiple combos, with little consideration for long term plays. This deck wants to win very quickly.

Manabase is in progress*

The ramp package is thoroughly tuned for competitively play (with some budget considerations)
