A legacy deck inspired by the 1998 Brian Selden world champ deck. Sadly, Survival of the Fittest was banned from play; however, Fauna Shaman can be used as a replacement.

This deck is based on fetching creatures with Fauna Shaman, throwing away creatures, bringing creatures back to the battlefield with Recurring Nightmare . There are a lot of one off cards to take care of immediate threats.

You'll find also find that there is quite a bit of deck reordering and deck thinning involved. Scroll Rack and Brainstorm are used to get rid of unnecessary cards; then, fetch lands and many other cards offer shuffle effects to offer a second chance at good cards.

Notice the large maybe board? This deck offers some great versatility, so lots of different creatures can be played.

I am seeking constructive feedback on what swaps I can do to make this play competitively against other legacy decks. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
