Back in the day, one of my two favorite decks was a BGW Thallid Deck with Khabal Ghouls. So, after fifteen years off, I was excited to see the new Thallids that had come out and tried ot use it as a theme for my first EDH deck... but the Thallids were often too ineffectual at hitting a critical mass. Changing it into one that focused on the +1/+1 counters (at Ghave Counter Storm) made it a lot more powerful and even better at making big saprolings.

I had taken out Utopia Mycon because the regular playgroup generally frowns on infinite combos. Having one multi-card one in the deck that isn't the goal seems acceptable though, so I could put it back in. I haven't made any changes to this one since building the counter version, except for upgrading five of the lands.
