The problem I see with this deck is that while the mana is aplenty, there isn't a real use to having all that ramp. I suggest adding hydras that can take advantage of that mana, such as Hydra Broodmaster , Heroes' Bane , and/or Polukranos, World Eater to take advantage of all that ramp.

why is Sage of Hours is in the deck you have only 3 ways to active his heroic?

shiffster I use Bow of Nylea to give him the counters, he is just an insuring, if I play against a mazes end deck, so that I can attack in enought turns in row, so he doesn't have enought Fog left.

Heroic triggers are only activated by the casting of spells that target the card with heroic (usually from the hand). Bow of Nylea (Being an activated ability) is not targeting while it is being cast, therefore does not trigger the heroic ability of Sage of Hours .

BrutalFear, I don't need Sage of Hours to trigger, Bow of Nylea can place a +1/+1 counter on a creature, and the only thing that Sage of Hours needs is five +1/+1 counter, to give me an ekstra turn :)

your spending 6+ turns and a lot of mana to get one extra turn

If he does an infinite combo he can take a lot more than one extra turn.
Like all the turns.

if you really want to use Sage of Hours with Bow of Nylea , Prophet of Kruphix is a must
June 10, 2014 7:46 a.m.
Bow of Nylea
woldnt untap with Prophet of Kruphix

June 11, 2014 7:04 a.m.

Illusionist's Bracers and two Kiora's Followers is a much more efficient infinite combo than the one mentioned above. You should increase the count to four. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but a land enchanted by Market Festival only produces three mana, while Thassa's Ire requires four to activate, so the combo doesn't actually get anywhere. Also, a fun card you might want to consider is Codex Shredder , because when paired with the bracers/follower combo, it generates infinite instant mill.

Dolansauce I like the idee about Codex Shredder But I use two of the Market Festival with the Thassa's Ire that way i can go infinity. :)

With all the creatures that untap lands, do you find that Urban Evolution is that useful? If not, a cheaper CMC draw card like Divination could be better.

ChriH I've been experimenting with using Illusionist's Bracers + Kiora's Follower this weekend as well. I noticed you are using two Market Festival when doing the combo with Thassa's Ire . But in my research in Simic stack manipulation techniques I have discovered a way to reduce your costs and speed your journey to infinity.
Turn 1: play Thassa's Ire + Island
Turn 2: play Kiora's Follower + Forest
Turn 3: play a land, tap 3 lands + Kiora's Follower for four mana to play Market Festival on the land of your choice
Turn 4: tap 2 lands play Illusionist's Bracers tap the land with Market Festival and equip Kiora's Follower
You are now prepared to go infinite as follows:
Tap Kiora's Follower targeting the land enchanted with Market Festival
The triggered effect of Illusionist's Bracers will then go onto the stack, target the festive land with that as well.
Once the triggered effect of Illusionist's Bracers resolves to untap the land you can tap the land for 3 mana, before the effect of Kiora's Follower resolves. it will then be untapped by Kiora's Follower allowing you to tap it again for 3 more for a total of 6
now untap Kiora's Follower for a net gain of 2 mana per cycle. And pure infinite goodness.
alternative Turn 3: if lacking lands tap 2 play Illusionist's Bracers which without any other lands( and not spending mana on anything else, will take the combo to turn 6 instead where turn 4 your equip the bracers to KIora's and then turn 5 you play market festival by tapping your two lands and using both untaps.
Anyway hope that help's :D

Also, I'm new to this site and have no idea how to edit my comment so just gonna add here you might want to look into Oracle's Insight potential turn 4 infinite draw is a hell of a thing.

So are you looking for an infinite combo deck, or a different kind of deck here?
July 4, 2014 5:42 a.m.
Genesis Hydra , Polukranos, World Eater , Kiora, the Crashing Wave , Nissa, Worldwaker Courser of Kruphix
September 27, 2014 9:34 a.m.
Drop Acolyte, Broodmaster and Colossus.
Also, Sagu Mauler should be in any simic build at the moment
