Deck is really cool from a flavor standpoint but I think it's going to get just devoured. Just not fast enough. Of 24 lands u only have 10 that come into play untapped, 1 which u can't play more than one of and the rest will cost u life...

Rakshasa Deathdealer would be good.

It's not supposed to be ultra fast.

It's combo, not Rock. Against aggro I bring in my drown in sorrows to help stabilize the early onslaught. It's a grindy match, and the power of the reanimation targets instantly stabilizes the board when then come out, and take over the game from there.

The biggest weakness will be burn style decks and control decks, but they both rotated out.

Deathdealer is FANTASTIC in a rock style deck, I look forward to brewing a new Rock deck with him in it.

I did a few play tests. I would keep Sidisi, Brood Tyrant but really rework things to get some more speed.

I know it's not suppose to be ultra fast and things work the way they're suppose to... just the deck doesn't survive long enough to make them happen.

I'd consider Murderous Cut over Dig Through Time maybe drop Sultai Charm down to 1 in favor of 2 more Hero's Downfall . Drop most of the temples in favor of fetches and basics.

Need too much green to run fetches, makes your green mana not consistent enough.

Sultai charm is for filtering and to get the bombs out of your hand.

Murderous Cut is definitely a consideration though, but Dig through time gets you the pieces you need now. I'd probably cut a See the Unwritten for a murderous cut instead.

I need to test more, but I'm still at work currently. Maybe I need to mainboard drowns while aggro is going to be huge.

I'll test against your decks a few times and let you know.
