Just something I'm trying out. With a typical starting hand the idea is to play Eldrazi Skyspawner on turn 3, netting a scion token. Turn four you play your land, attack, and then pass the turn. During your opponents upkeep you flash in Elder Deep-Fiend tapping their lands and essentially timewalking your opponent because because all their lands are tapped and they now can't profitably attack into your 5/6. If you played a Sanctum of Ugin as one of your first 4 lands you can also sac this to search for a Reality Smasher, allowing you to play a land after timewalking your opponent and being able to cast Reality Smasher with your 4 lands and scion token and swing in for 10 damage. It's incredibly easy to get both of these creatures in play and they avoid all of the most common removal, Grasp of Darkness, Ultimate Price , and Languish. Your opponent basically needs a boardwipe in order to catch back up, and if your on the play you can usually kill them before they have the mana to wipe the board.

I know this isn't perfection yet as I'm unsure about the amount of removal in the deck and things like Palace Familiar and Anticipate but I know the deck needs a way to help keep a hand. Anticipate for obvious reason of being able to dig through 3 cards to find something needed. Palace Familiar works as a good chump blocker and when I don't have a turn 4 Elder Deep-Fiend and it comes later, sacing the familiar works the same as sacing a Matter Reshaper . Both end up netting me some form of card advantage.

Like I said, I'm unsure about the amount of removal I have because I feel the deck wants to be on the aggressive side, but at the same time I think being able to follow up my large creatures with removal to clear the way will end games.
