Thanks matto89, it's come with moderatre success but huge amounts of fun! Will check your deck out, also!
I'm still quite torn with Courser of Kruphix . It's definitely a good card, and the life gain is great. But what I struggle with, is it's only contribution towards winning (through Nemesis Wave) is filtering lands. It would actually slow down how quickly I can 'explode' as it takes up a turn three slot (Which can range from either Market Festival and Verdant Haven [also life gain] to Kiora, the Crashing Wave or Nissa, Worldwaker .
Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx is one I ocassionally have mixed feelings about. But I do like it. It works in that the enchant land spells provide devotion, but also increased mana generation. When you add them to Nykthos, it's activations essentially become free, or mana producing. Haven't played it, when it works, it works. If it doesn't, It's just a colourless land. If the colourless land becomes a problem, I'll have to assess it more.
Pretty sure I'll take it to FNM this week for some jolly laughs.

hey why not try out Dictate of Karametra ? it has a down side but your plan is to steal your opponents stuff anyways, so he will have to clean up his stuff from your side of the field during his turn then you are free to cast another lol

Thanks evolving. I originally had AEtherspouts in the sideboard, but decided to take it out. I figured the matches where it was useful, was likely the ones I should be exploding verse, and it's too slow for aggro.
Dictate of Karametra was an option that I haven't yet got around to trying yet. Not sure what I'd cut for it, maybe Sylvan Caryatid s, one or two? MMM

So I went fatties with my ramp, and not blow up, for fun. I saw all the mana it made, and dropped Sylvan Caryatid The deck is Phat Stacks
Archetype of Endurance + Colossus of Akros + Prophet of Kruphix I'm finding with all that ramp I can play Colossus, and during the free untap I get from the Prophet I can Monster up during their turn. Oh so easy with all that ramp in play.
Thanx for the ideas BTW!

i see you like to Villanious Wealth as well....+1 for trying this out too! This is actually the archetype I think would work best with this card, as you'd be able to x for a million.
I'd recommend taking out at least two nykthos, since your permanents truly lack the devotion to put a full set in. ABSOLUTELY put 2-4 Courser of Kruphix in. The life gain and blocking body will be much needed, seeing how many confluences and fetches you want to run. I'd also adjust the Nissa to land ratio as needed. All round I do like the idea and hope that you will take a look at my B/U(g) control centered around this card. Maybe we can help each other spark some ideas!!!
