Damn crabs!

Early game I sit on removal and/or I mill myself with Hedron crabs and Phantasmal Images copying the crabs....crabs everywhere!

The plan is to continue keeping the board under control in the midgame...Abrupt Decay, Lightning Bolt, Detention Sphere and Terminate all help me deal with (potential) threats along the way. Fleshbag Marauder comes in to force sacs and chump block if req'd. I've found that its nice to be able to kill my own Phantasmal Image off once it's been played as a copy of a Hedron Crab and the Marauders do that very well.

Raven's Crime provides some back up discard too. Life from the Loam+Raven's Crime+Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth gives me a wonderful discard engine. It gives me a nice tool in the control matchup.

Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite stops aggro in its tracks. Iona, Shield of Emeria does the same against mono colored decks. RDW in particular. I hate RDW!!!!

Gifts Ungiven helps me find what I need. Now. It's great for forcing opponents to over think stuff; pick your poison kind of thing.

Finally, in the late game I Unburial Rites a Sun Titan to get lots of Sun Titans...Hasted...followed by a bunch of Fleshbag Marauders who mess up their board state. Odds are I win at this point.

I would greatly appreciate help with my sideboard, I foresee Blood Moon and graveyard hate hosing me. I'm contemplating using the sideboard to switch more to a control deck. Thoughts?? I feel like the deck is a little soft to aggro too. This is mostly unfounded due to minimal testing in duels but I don't like blocking with Hedron Crabs when they're so important to my strategy and so I'm left with Lotus Cobra and Phantasmal Image as blockers...could be worse I guess.
