@whotookmyname: That's not in standard though...
Maybe you should replace a few instants with low CMC creatures to hold the fort while you're building up your resources. Wall of Frost perhaps?

Specifically I was thinking about replacing Setessan Tactics .
May 21, 2014 12:54 p.m.
Maybe, but I was thinking more of something with a lasting effect on the board, like the aforementioned Wall of Frost .

idk I run a modern BUG deck that is very similar to this I run Wall of Frost Kraken Hatchling and Fog Bank along with a variety of Fog effects to stall along with a few kill spells and counters until i could get out Stormtide Leviathan or some other game ender along with that i found that Vraska the Unseen helps take the pressure off you and can kill stuff if needed idk if thats the kind of advice your looking but hope it helps!

Nimbus Swimmer is an enormous threat to drop. also a leviathan.

Thanks all for helping me with this. and I just started with mtg, playing lil' tournements tho. Thats why I don't wanne play mordern, I mean, standard got tons of cards already! And I was thinking of replacing Setessan Tactics . And Fog seems a good card for it. With the Mizzium Skin , Dissolve , Cyclonic Rift and at last Fog I think I should get some krakens on the field.
And the Nimbus Swimmer is a really good card indeed. But I'm more concerned about the ealry. My late game is fine I think.
Thanx for all your help!

if you want quick cards to support you into late game add Courser of Kruphix , Sylvan Caryatid , add like 4 more lands preferably Simic Guildgate and add Gatecreeper Vine

nimbus swimmer s are leviathans and you got alot of ramp. just sayin

I finally played with this deck. And I had or too many mana or too many kraken in my hand. So I'm thinking of putting some Dakra Mystic and Courser of Kruphix .

If you happen to throw in some Scourge of Fleets I'd suggest investing in Breeding Pool . Use them while they're legal, and you'll have value after rotation to complete trades, or you can keep them for Modern. So, they're a fairly solid investment.

Well, It's 40,- here. I'm still kinda new with mtg and im waiting for the new block. I guess they got simalair land cards.
July 3, 2014 8:09 a.m.
Tnx! btw, with those land cards Scourge of Fleets really didn't work. The early game is really rough.
July 3, 2014 8:31 p.m.
Maybe I should try Kiora's Follower and Prophet of Kruphix for the early game. I can even untap Elvish Mystic and Sylvan Caryatid with Kiora's Follower for mana. I have to play defensive and safe mana. This way I can spend mana to counter spells to get into late game. I also can wait till the end of the enemies turn to cast creature cards with Prophet of Kruphix .
July 3, 2014 8:47 p.m.
I would suggest a Stormtide Leviathan and a pair of Deep-Sea Kraken . The Leviathan gives more blue mana for you and prevent most of the attacks. If you put it in game you can't attack with other creatures, but it's an unblockable 8/8. The Kraken.. Nothing to say here. you pay 3 and you wait for your unblockable 6/6 while you play your game. Plus it lose counters whenever an oppo plays a spell.. So, maybe you can have it on the battlefield on the 5/6 turn. Hope these two suggestions could be useful!

Stormtide Leviathan Just got spoiled today - it'll be in M15.
July 4, 2014 5:30 a.m.
Yeah, I just wanted to tell you. I found him in the m15 deck! Tnx for the advice :D

Prophet of Kruphix and Kruphix, God of Horizons will let you mana ramp a lot since you untap land every turn and tap them to store the mana to play cards like the Stormtide Leviathan really early game
July 25, 2014 6:59 a.m.
I know, but the mana is alright now. And both are 5 mana. Thnx for the advice . I do like both cards.
