An evolving deck list. Hope to rock this in several iterations through fall 2018. This is my first attempt at playing standard competitively. Around 2004 I discovered UG Madness and really liked the way it was aggressive without using burn but could protect itself with permission spells. A sly deck with a lot of punch. I feel this deck plays similarly.

*Considering including Fling in some quantity given that Attune with Aether + Aether hub in an energy shell can easily provide Red mana when needed. With the proper Blue permission in hand you can Pummeler + Larger than life/ Blossoming Defense + Fling + Negate. When you have 7-9 mana late game. (With less mana if you've gotten the Pummeler on the field already and have protected it).
