Through the Breach helps play around gy hate, also helps chain Griselbrand through Narset, Enlightened Master

I know that with Narset you feel you have a target-rich environment and you are good on a turn 1 start for sure (minus a well timed path or whatevs), but I feel that during my playtest of the deck I didn't find GB as much as I had hoped. I solved this in my builds with Time of Need. Not sure if you can find room for it, but it can also be fetched with Transmute on Muddle, so there is a chain for you.
Maybe 1-2 would be enough.

i used to run Time of Need in the original, but it was clunky. sorcery speed meant I had to waste a turn or wait till at least 4 mana to get GB in hand. all of the looting that is available in this deck has made it pretty consistent to hit GB within the first few turns. the deck itself is fairly consistent, piloting it correctly is actually much harder than it seems. I have been working on this deck for 2+ years now and have it somewhat finished now.

So how do you keep using Fury of the horde, when yuou cast it dont it go to graveyard? then what do you cast to take the 3 more turns needed (or 4 if they had a creature that could block)

Fieldsweeper - The deck contains 4 copies of it. Drawing 7 off of Griselbrand every attack (+ up to 14 extra cards if need be) should in theory get you the 2 copies necessary (7+2*7=21).

Now with the meta settling a bit and being so favored to delve; Tasigur, Angler, Become Immense, on top of Snapcaster Mage. More people are mainboarding yard hate, mostly Relic. That's just food for thought.
I think I've said it before but I'll say it again just in case, the deck either needs to be all about Griselbrand or Narset. They require very different builds although both effective.
Right now because of all of this, I have set aside my Grisel Cannon, ENRAGED!, and took a different approach using a delve strategy, as well as the Gbrand package of him, Goryo's, and Fury of Horde while also staving off opponents with Eidolon of the Great Revel. Gemstone Mine is amazing for Delve haha.
