Just trying out another idea

So far in testing this deck is doing pretty well. This deck mainly relies on Prismatic Omen and Last Stand to do all the heavy lifting. There are alternative ways to win without Last Stand but omen is absolutely necessary. It's hard for anyone to come back from 10 damage, 5 damage to a creature, 5 additional 1/1s on your side, 10 life on your side, and a 5 card draw which will probably set you up for another Last Stand on Turn 5. (possibly earlier)

Key points:

  • Nice big sorceries Last Stand , Tribal Flames, and Exploding Borders that are all copy worthy. And of course Dual Casting to copy with. I chose this over other copy spells because it adds more threat to your creatures, cost less, and is repeatable.

  • Creatures with insane land dropping abilities, Viridian Emissary and Veteran Explorer. Remember that you will be benefiting the most from their deaths. So kill them. Hell even use Last Stand 's creature damage on one. Then there is Draco for the longer games. (still deciding if Hedron Matrix is worth a slot, a 25/25 flyer is pretty awesome.)

  • If you cannot seem to kill your opponent with Last Stand or if they have life gain. Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, Koth of the Hammer and Draco will all become a huge source of late damage.

  • Survive early game by blocking with your land droppers to force late game upon your foes. If they won't attack hit their key creatures with Tribal Flames.

  • Prismatic Omen won't always be in your opening hand. Worldly Counsel will help you find it or any other cards you may want. The land dropping will also thin the deck allowing you to get to the meat and potatoes easier.
