Wow I just forgot to upvote facepalm. I actually upvoted this time.
Rancor is still a permanent +2/+0 that's resistant to removal.
I feel like keeping your hand full would do nothing but speed it up as you would have more creatures and pumps to play.

Haha alright.
Regarding, Rancor , that is true. And I totally agree with the more cards in hand, if I have the mana. I guess the big problem is, what do I take out for those? I guess Giant Growth could be taken out for Rancor but beyond that it's hard to find a place for a spell that does something different.

I feel like Hover Barrier isn't a very good wall and could go, but the card it's being replaced by does something totally different.

Yeah that probably would be what would get switched out. It's weird since they're so different. It has flying which is nice. But who knows. I'll play around with it. I know Rancor is going in. Thanks for the help.

Cost too much for too little. My two cost are 2/2 and my 3 cost are 3/1 or 0/4 with evolve. If I take out Invisible Stalker he'll probably go in.

I would run Vines of Vastwood over Phytoburst . Instant speed makes all the difference. Also Forced Adaptation is just slow. Bonesplitter for the win.

If you change to an equipment route, use Cranial Plating with the above mentioned swords.

Sorry but, "is Unblockable" is no longer the correct wording; its now, "can't be blocked" (Even though it takes more ink to print that, good job R&D, good job).

It's just the name I gave it, and essentially the same thing. Besides, all the cards in this deck say unblockable.
March 29, 2014 5:35 p.m.
did you consider Guard Gomazoa as a wall/blocker? basically a better Fog Bank

yugimon4: I had not, but that is an awsome card. Idk if I'd say it's better than Fog Bank since it cost more, but I'll probably replace Hover Barrier with it.

I don't understand why you have 12 defenders. get rid of your least favorite for a set of Cloudfin Raptor so you don't always have to wait until turn 3 to attack. I also see Simic Charm being better over Phytoburst as main. phytoburst is too easy to deal with and simic charm would work very well in this deck since you can't afford to lose any of your creatures since only half of them are even capable of attacking. i like the idea. not a fan of walls though(except for Fog Bank which is awesome) especially in a deck that aims to be fast, stuff like Think Twice and Into the Roil , and Curiosity could work great here to keep your hand full with little mana, and bounce bigger threats. even a Hands of Binding could be useful especially on the stalker. also, your land count can't handle it, but Bident of Thassa would work well to keep your hand full, and churn out those unblockables.

maxon I get what you're saying about the not being able to attack until turn 3 and needing to get rid of a set of walls. There's just two problems I have with that. The first being, I leave myself open a lot since I'm attacking each turn, so I need something to protect me. Especially against swarming decks. And the second being, are there any better cards than Cloudfin Raptor
lol. I could end up in the same spot of not being able to attack until turn 3 unless I get a creature out on turn 2. I would probably take out Wall of Frost
since Guard Gomazoa
is essentially the same thing as Fog Bank
but with one more toughness and mana requirement. I will probably take it out and put in a draw spell though since I have been really wanting to to put in draw. Do you think Curiosity
or Brainstorm
?
I would have to disagree about Simic Charm Yeah the versatility of it is great, but +5 is just such a big hit to take. I mainly put it in my sideboard for the hexproofing.
I do agree that Bident of Thassa would be cool and that it doesn't work in my mana base.
Thank you for the help.

I used to have very similar deck. My friends hated it! +1 of course. Did you ever consider Increasing Savagery ? Or is it too slow for you?
March 31, 2014 11:08 a.m.
Hallowed_Titan says... #17
I suppose with only 20 lands it'll be too slow. This is what my version turned into: a control variant. Care to check it out?

That is an awsome card. But yeah, it's probably too slow:/ which sucks because it's an awesome card. I want to put it in my G/R deck. +1 on yours. It wouldn't be fun to play against.

thanks for commenting on my deck, it was your deck, that i made mine off of, but with my own twist

Okay guys, I'm looking to put Blighted Agent . What should i take out? I'm thinking Elusive Krasis or Latch Seeker ?
March 31, 2014 2:35 p.m.
InnerFlame says... #22
Since it had infect I only have to hit for 10 and I win. With all my power ramp it could be lights out fast.

InnerFlame says... #24
I just went ahead and replaced Elusive Krasis since he wasn't getting much of a pump anymore since all the big walls were taken out.

When I ran my Invisible Stalker / Latch Seeker deck at FNM i used Curiosity and it worked great often enough. But, Brainstorm could help you find more of your unblockables. Maybe try them both see which works out better. And my thought with Cloudfin Raptor was as good turn one play. The flying is near and dear to unblockable, especially early game. So, T1, Cloudfin Raptor , T2 Invisible Stalker swing for 1, T3, LatchSeeker swing 3, T4, after you swing your OPP is down to 9 life unless they started using kill/bounce/burn spells on your stuff. In the case of swarm, maybe something like Sleep could be usefull to let you get your final swings in while not needing to have so many blockers.?

InconspicuousPotato:Oh wow i haven't even though about the swords. Those would be realy nice in this deck..and Keen Sense I worry about curiosity because I feel like it will slow the deck down more than speed it up. Rancor I don't use since my creatures are unblockable so I don't need trample. And I have so many walls so that I have something to protect myself with. I'm swinging anytime I can with the unblockable guys which leaves my life total vulnerable. I need something to protect myself.
Also, I'm not trying to call you out or anything, but I'm noticing a lot of people are saying +1 and then I don't get up vote. The same happened here. I don't care if you didn't want to, but I'm just wondering if the counter is broken or something.
