Made this deck for a little bit of Standard fun with Jalira, Master Polymorphist , Yisan, the Wanderer Bard, Stormtide Leviathan, and Hornet Queen . Sure, it's a bit variable, but overall it plays quite well. This is pretty much how it goes...

Turn 1: Elvish Mystic

Turn 2: Elvish Mystic and/or Kiora's Follower, or Yisan, the Wanderer Bard

Turn 3: Jalira, Master Polymorphist , Prophet of Kruphix, or activate Yisan, the Wanderer Bard to get another Elvish Mystic.

Turn 4: If you have Jalira, activate her, sacrifice an Elvish Mystic, and hope for either Stormtide Leviathan, Hornet Queen , or Prophet of Kruphix out of your library. Don't have Jalira? Pull out a Kiora's Follower with Yisan and sit tight. If none of the above, that's okay too! You should (ideally) have around 6-7 available mana at this point. Drop an Hour of Need on a couple weenies and turn them into major flyers. Throw down that Hornet Queen you've been saving in your hand. Toss around some more mana dorks to launch your big creatures next turn. You have options! Negate and Triton Tactics will give you a bit of cover if things aren't going your way; and Taigam's Scheming 's included to let you cheat Jalira's roulette ability. Just keep rolling away with Jalira -- you'll get to the big stuff in short order, and then it's lights out for your opponent!
