Potential Standard Merfolk deck making use of the access they have to low cost creatures, mana, counters, and control.The goal is to get out merfolk fast, get counters on them, and make some unblockable attacks while keeping the opposing board as clear as possible. One of the main issues is going to be the lack of more U/G dual lands in standard upon rotation. I'm hoping we see a new one in Explorers of Ixalan. Currently messing with the landbase and debating whether or not I want to put metallic mimic into the creature list.
