"Check out Guitar George! He knows all The Chords!"

As the deck name suggests, this is Sultai, and yes, we are going to be swinging.

Introductions:

The 'Guitar George' in this deck is Nantuko Husk. And 'Harry' (who doesn't mind, if he doesn't make the scene), is Whirler Rogue, since the two compliment each other so well, as you shall see.

The star of the show, however, is the ever so versatile and completely under-rated Mirror Mockery , as card not only adds defensive capabilities, but offensive! See, when you play 'The Chords' (a.k.a. Mirror Mockery ) targeting your 'Guitar George', he'll swing, generating a copy of himself that you can then sack to make an instant 4/4! See where I'm going with this? Now, 'Harry' with 'The Chords' will swing and make another copy to sac for 'Guitar George' as well as make two more thopters, of which you can tap to make both George & Harry unblockable!!! What could be better you ask? Simple! Proceeding to then sac your 4 tapped thopters (and don't forget to sac the copied Harry!) for a delicious total of 14 unblockable damage. WHAT NEXT?!?! If Zulaport Cutthroat is in play, the sac damage adds up to 5 = 19 Damage + 5 Life. Then, sac Cutthroat to George for a LETHAL. 22. UNBLOCKABLE. DAMAGE!

The rest of the deck serves as sac bait for 'Guitar George', while Zulaport Cutthroat & Grim Haruspex end up netting you great advantages and a few answers for your opponents... um... questions, I guess?

Alrighty, that's the deck. So far it's proven to be very fun at FNM, but needs help, as I desperately WANT it to be competitive. What do you all think? Am I trying to accomplish too much? Should I get rid of Sidisi Brood Tryant combo in favor of the original combo? Should I opt more for control while I get the combo up and running? I HAVE NO IDEA! Help a friend out with your suggestions. As always, thank you for everything. May your rolls be high and your crits be many.
