The Deck is focused pretty heavily around Vorel of the Hull Clade's ability. I added a decent amount of Hexproof to help keep him on the board. At 3 CMC it is very easy to get him out early and start doubling things.(No PW and no Enchantments)

In order to assist Vorel there is a nice untap package as well.

There are many different Wincons focused around counters, I intentionally left Magistrate's Scepter out of the deck because it's unfun to just say "I have Infinite turns I win". Here is a List of Wincons

• Beating people to death with giant fatties via Elusive Krasis, Primordial Hydra etc.

• Milling with Otherworld Atlas or Grindclock

• Darksteel Reactor

Some may wonder why Bioshift is in the BA column. I have done many fun things with it. From attacking with a 20/20 and a chump, only to switch the counters to the unblocked chump when they don't block it, to dodging Phthisis. It is extremely versatile in this deck and more importantly really fun.

Please leave any suggestions and upvote if you like it.
