Chasm Skulker this guy can become a win condition if the tempo comes out right. He gets bigger as time goes on and gets a boost from Treasure Cruise. When he dies you get chump blockers or an army, whatever's relevant. Keranos, God of Storms Mix in Taigam's Scheming and you can fix a heavy top deck. For extra draw or to get that damage in.Stormtide Leviathan this guy locks the board and makes your squid tokens and himself unblockable. The big finisher.One copy because he though he is a win condition, I have enough tempo and library manipulation to find him and drawing him unexpectedly might not help.Clever Impersonator: let me copy your polukranos, or maybe your sarkhan? How about you Elspeth? Seige Rhino? I think you get the picture. This guy can copy my opponents and my own cards to help create or maintain control of the board and to win when the time comes. Embodiment of Spring a good body to block with early game, let's me grab mana and ramp as well if I don't need him, or if he's chumping.Kiora, the Crashing Wave is control and win condition maker.The obelisk in the sideboard is there if the tokens are sitting there and seem good in a match up.Jace and Nissa if they seem relevant, maybe to confuse the opponent when they expected kioraPolymorphist's Jest and Curse of the Swine make Anger of the Gods better. Font of Ire these 4 by themselves add up to a win condition if you can get them through. Just sit back until you've got the mana to play sac on the same turn and start launching them at your opponents face.

The spells are the real control, library manipulation and card draw, board bounce and damage to kill things. Counterspells for countering spells.

Side board: Curse of the Swine can be a good way to get rid of what your opponent is using and still make the creatures small enough to die to an Anger of the Gods. The Font of Ire s are for when the won con cards are being dealt with and your control seems to work just fine. Keep play and sacing them for a win con. Nissa is good for untapping lands for that extra boost and making creatures out of lands when the board is empty. Polymorphist's Jest can make creatures small enough to die to Anger of the Gods. Xenagos can add that nice mana boost, or a creature, or help you get that leviathan in play. Obelisk of Urd is for those situations where you have a ton of squid tokens and you would do better if you could just make them big.

Maybe board: I like the idea of locking up the board and giving things flying so I can still attack with my big creatures after I've locked it down. It can also help to give me blockability against a massive flyer deck.
