Thanks for your thoughts, some of those are real good ideas, some of which I just haven't managed to pick up (pride sovereigns aren't usually in stock at my game store), and a few actually don't work. First, llanowar elves are elves, not cats, and though they would work well, I only want cats. Second, thanks for the removal suggestions, I know that wasn't all that great. Third, A lot of the things you suggested removing actually work really well with the rest of the deck, even if they aren't generically good. Scrounging bandar is nice because early on, I can be moving counters to things like sacred cat and feral prowler, to get big things early on with nice keyword abilities, call for unity is really under rated, but is really good because it forces your opponent to make hard choices, where both options are bad, and ideally can still come not on turn five and not mess up tempo, pouncing cheetah works really good where you factor in being able to activate enter-the-battlefield triggers, especially since nobody expects it, durable handicraft isn't the best and might get removed, but can be pretty good, especially if I get it out early, so I can cast smaller things and still have them bigger, divine verdict should go, oath of Ajani is great in late game, especially for only 2 mana, and growing rites of itlamoc is actually pretty cool. The other suggestions are really good though, so thanks for those

that's fine. I'm gonna retire this deck soon, since it's about to lose everything, though m19 does have some cool stuff. I'm kinda looking at Jund for my next deck, since it's got a lot of good but also cheap cards, and I can combine black red aggro and green stompy. I'll post a list soon. Also it will get multi color reinforcement when ravnica comes out, soooooo

Thanks, but that really doesn't work for me on this deck, because the whole pint of this deck is that it's all cats, and if the deck can't get green cats, and if a lot of it is non-cat planeswalkers, it just seems to defeat the point for me, so instead I'm using my selesnya convoke deck for now. Thanks though!
