Click on the alters Ph0xPhire and you'll be directed to that alter's card page. They should have sources, however I'm still trying to get most of them populated.

You won't however get anything for Card Kitty, the Noble Hierarch alter. Card Kitty's site is down and I don't see it coming up any time soon.

Kor Firewalker is a good sideboard card that totally hoses red decks.
Reveillark is not bad as a one-of or so, especially if you put a Flickerwisp on him.
Imposing Sovereign is pretty good if you'd like to get in a lot damage all at once.
Brimaz, King of Oreskos is still pretty fantastic.
Defense Grid and Eyes of the Wisent and Choke all hose control decks fairly well.
Enjoy. :)

Interesting ideas KaraZorEl, though I don't think I'll be using any of them.
Kor Firewalker doesn't work against any other deck, I need versatile sideboard material. Spellskite and Burrenton Forge-Tender for versatility against other decks. I also have Auriok Champion in the main.
Reveillark holds the problem of not giving me immediate advantage. It could sit there for a long time while a burn, twin, scapeshift, infect player demolishes me. I'd rather run Sun Titan. I should put one Sun Titan in.
Imposing Sovereign is interesting, but generally lack-luster. I'm rarely attacking with my weak ground forces (Fiend Hunter, Auriok Champion, Saffi Eriksdotter and Eternal Witness don't turn sideways very well) and instead I'm swinging with Flickerwisp in the air, and at times with Voice of Resurgence on the ground. While Imposing Sovereign does slow down my opponent and let me lower down their life quicker, it has no protection. Auriok Champion is my "functional equivalent" in that it slows down my opponents while putting the life ratio in my favour. The big thing here is that Auriok Champion has protection, it can block Gurmag Angler with ease, and is a much better material against Twin, Merfolk and RDW.
Brimaz doesn't really follow this deck very well. It fits none of the roles any of my current cards do. It doesn't provide hate nor tempo, and a 3/4 without evasion is surprisingly weak these days due to Rhino, Goyf, Tasigur and Angler all prevalent in the meta.
Control is non-existent in modern right now, it is all about combo-control. Voice of Resurgence, AEther Vial and Collected Company are all my anti-control cards.

Okay, so if you're not turning good creatures sideways, how do you win consistently then? It seems like a well-timed Cryptic Command would blow you out. At least, that's my impression. Maybe I'm missing something?

Cryptic Command doesn't really see play that much anymore, and it wouldn't affect me much, because of Voice of Resurgence.
And this deck doesn't win by turning sideways. This deck wins by out-tempoing your opponents. Your creatures give you more value than your opponent's creatures do. Blanking removal, getting value out of the opponent's plays, re-using abilities and cards, all that stuff. It's really hard to explain if you haven't played the deck yourself, but the creatures are really just treated like a spell from a delver deck with YP on the field, where Flickerwisp and Eternal Witness are my jace and snappy.

So deck has now been changed to accomodate the new meta of Infect, RDW, Affinity and Kiki-Chord being the top decks! Tron, Jund, Merfolk and Zoo are currently 1.5.

If you add in Leonin Arbiter you could have a hatebears thing
February 1, 2016 11:33 a.m.
You could add an Altar of the Brood to win on the spot if you get either of the combos off
infinite life sometimes isn't enough

Only in the side xenith4127 as it only works against a select few decks. Having it in the main does not allow for my deck to function properly as this focuses mainly on tempo.
Pointless card gumbymoto. It does nothing on its own, and thus won't be used. Remember, the infinite combo comes out only once every 200 games or so.

NEEDS Painter's Servant!
chucks Gaddock Teeg off the bridge
February 6, 2016 9:42 p.m.
What does Painter's Servant bring to the table that edges out gaddock?

Have you ever been slaughtered by two T1 Eldrazi Mimics followed by a turn two 4/4 Endless One? It's kinda beastly. Painter's Servant helps prevent those sorts of plays.
Besides, I main 4 GCs and have 10 means of anti-wraths, so I can already win against Tron G1. If Tron ever comes back (I don't think it will, not as long as Eldrazi is around) I will probably put Gaddock Teeg back in. But for now, it is not needed.
February 7, 2016 9:59 p.m.
Your alters are a-fucking-MAZING! Kudos to the artist and to you for reppin' them!

Infect, Jund and Zoo are top decks. List has been changed. No need for Saffi if she only works against one deck.

I always enjoy seeing other flicker decks that abuse the O-Ring-ish effects.
That Path to Exile is a very cool alter. :) I'm sure you're probably aware already, and Idk if you ever play this in tournies or fnm's, but that alter wouldn't be allowed since it obstructs the mana cost. Granted the head judge always makes the final call, I just thought I'd throw that bit of info out there.

Do you have sources on this 11/10 art?
