I'm theming a fun deck around mainly Gorgons & Sirens. My general approach is to accentuate many of the abilities inherent on Gorgons. This includes pulling opponents into attacking deathtouch creatures, fun tricks/abilities like PT & creature alteration, cloning/token generation, and counter alteration. On the side I'm fostering the notion of using -1/-1 tokens to mix up the game some. I really enjoy Cauldron of Souls/Persistence/Wither, but I dislike infect.

I picked Damia because her mana type is the most broad of the Gorgons, not because I have a specific strategy to utilize her. I've included some basic mill/draw synergies. Lorescale Coatl + Diviner's Wand are fine enough. I've considered some group hug like Flux .

In order to keep a gorgon/siren presence on the board I've taken the suggestions of [dusty] and added some more cloning/creature taking, but they're slowly being replaced by more Gorgons as they're released and graveyard manipulation.

My creature retrieval cards are Cauldron of Souls to avoid wipes/anti-regen, Disturbed Burial, Deadbridge Chant, Treasured Find, and Pharika's Mender .

Overall my approach is to create something fun, cost effective, and a bit unique.
