Lands? —May 12, 2013

So, I'm having some consistency problems with drawing mana. As you can see, I only run 36 with an average CMC of nearly 4. Should I run 2 more for a grand total of 38, and if so, what cards should I cut to make space for the extra lands? Once I can pull the lands I need, the deck runs like crazy. It's a crazy riot to play once I can get the counter doubling engine running. Thanks for the input!

Eternity Vessel ? I think it could be fun.

@Kirtanian: Yep, it's in there. And yes, it shapes up to be pretty nuts if I can get it online with the fish-man on the field :)

Rings of Brighthearth might be a better pick than Illusionist's Bracers . I know the Bracers get activated for "free" once equipped, but the Rings can interact with a number of other cards in a pretty awesome way. Think Magistrate's Scepter or Simic Manipulator .

Forgotten Ancient will grow pretty quick in a multiplayer game as well. Also, since he can place his counters on opponent's creatures he would synergize well with Experiment Kraj and Cytoplast Manipulator , which are also good alongside the Rings.

What's your interaction with Ulvenwald Tracker and Mutant's Prey ? If it's as spot removal, Beast Within might be a better choice than Mutant's Prey, and while Ulvenwald tracker as Removal on a stick works well, it might benefit from cards like Protean Hydra where taking the damage will increase it's counters.

My only other suggestions might be Seedborn Muse , Murkfiend Liege or Quest for Renewal . Seedborn Muse is the hyper version of it untapping your lands, but the other two at least allow for additional Vorel effects.

Otherwise, great deck :D! Definitely looking to build something similar to this
