ANY SUGGESTIONS TO IMPROVE THIS DECK ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED :)

This is my multiplayer Phenax, God of Deception EDH. It is by no means competitive, but I'm looking to build it in that direction as this deck grows and changes. I'm working to make this more and more competitive without actually turning the deck into something that's unfun to play (with or against) in a multiplayer environment; that said, I won't be running heavy control or turning this into an interactionless win-whore of a deck. For people who DO want a deck like that, I will be adding a section with which cards need to be interchanged (once I have the time). I will also be adding a section with arguments for and against each card that goes in the deck.

Now for the fun part

First, we have a few synergies here (some of which assume Phenax is on the board):

• Glacial Chasm+Unstable Frontier=Never take damage
• Maze of Ith+King Macar, the Gold-Cursed=Exile target creature
• Pemmin's Aura/Freed from the Real+King Macar, the Gold-Cursed+=Exile any amount of target creatures and mill opponent 3 for each one
• Avatar of Woe+Pemmin's Aura/Freed from the Real=:Destroy target creature. It can't be regenerated
• Morphling=Kick Butt
• Sewer Nemesis/Consuming Aberration=Double Target Graveyard
• Eater of the Dead=Pseudo-Infinite Mill (4 for each creature in opponent's grave)
• Disciple of Deceit+Pemmin's Aura/Freed from the Real+=Transmute nonland
• more when they get added

If you like the direction this is going, I'd appreciate a +1 to help get more suggestions flowing in :)
