Counter, draw, bounce, then abuse buyback(4) and cipher(4) for more drakes.

I feel that buyback and cipher recursions would be more efficient to abuse talrand and have less risk since graveyard hate wont mess this deck up.

I use proteus staff on my tokens also to bring out my creatures as well =P
