Thanks almerican those suggestions are great.
The theme of the deck is 1 damage so I took out the shocks and moved in the spark jolt.
All black is out going RUG does seem much more efficient the extra draw will be a big help.
Just need to figure out how to put in the simic charm.

I would kinda like to see Triton Tactics to untapp the druid or staticaster. Not a huge fan for the jolt though

You could add in the infinite damage combo when it comes to Triton Tactics , but I feel like you'd have to commit fully

Im liking where this is going, using the Triton Tactics and going for some great combos.
As long as the main theme of 1 damage effects stays in place I am open to anything.
January 11, 2014 4:57 p.m.
So then you would need to add in Elite Arcanist to finish off the combo

would it best to remove Chandra, Pyromaster and replace with Elite Arcanist ?
I really only added Chandras for the 1 damage effect but aranist looks like it will have a much larger impact and enable the combo.
Still looking it all over to see how the infinite combo plays out.

Elite Arcanist exile the Triton Tactics untap the Zhur-Taa Druid tap for the mana and continue the combo with the triton ???
January 11, 2014 5:26 p.m.
yep, for infinite damage just keep targeting the druid and arcanist

Thanks so much I see it now what a great evolution this deck has taken.
And to top it all off it now comes in under $20.

No problem, I'm glad I could help. I hope it works well for you

Ral Zarek would make a good fit except that he does 3 damage. .I know that seems silly but I am committed to the no card doing more than one damage.
I have added Ral to the maybe board as I am currently trying to figure out the sideboard, which I am trying to design in a way that it can almost change the deck up or even change to a second infinite combo in R/U/G.

Thinking of removing the Prophets for something lower casting cost.
Any suggestions?
January 12, 2014 3:53 p.m.
Instead of the prophet you could use Omenspeaker to help smooth out draws

Thanks twisteddtim, I designed the deck to be as annoying as possible and nothing is worse that taking 1 damage over and over again. Or having your 12/12 creature pinged to death.

yea I mean it willl bother the hell out of my friend

I know it's a bit out of flavor, but Guttersnipe
would make another infinite damage combo possible with Arcanist + Triton + Satyr.
If you want to stick with one-damage pinging, Verdant Haven would make the above possible too with a Crackling Perimeter and a Gate (alternate untapping the Aura'd land and Gate with the Satyr).
You also might consider Messenger's Speed to give your combo pieces haste.

Btw if you wouldn't mind, check out my infinite combo deck: So...Many...Infinite Combos...Wtf

Prophet of Kruphix would definitely work here. All your ping damage creatures would untap during their untap step, allowing for basically double damage. Also, I think you need a way to control the board and slow your opponent down (Simic Charm is a start).

Burning Earth sideboard for 2+ color decks
Chandra, Pyromaster (the card advantage is huge!)
Akroan Crusader for additional value from Triton Tactics if the druid isn't on the field.
Spark Jolt for more potential cards for Elite Arcanist
Would Turn / Burn be ok of you only used Turn ? =-)
Hope some of these ideas help! =-)

Oh and just wondering, why Hidden Strings ? Doesn't seem like you'll be attacking often and it can't be used with Elite Arcanist . Might be better to use Fog or Mizzium Skin to protect yourself and your dudes.

I don't thin I would include Black at all, maybe drop out Diabolic Tutor and add in Urban Evolution to give some draw.
It will also help if you maybe went just R/U/G, you wont want all of your lands to come in tapped, it would just make things too slow
And Spark jolt shouldnt be a mainboarded card, side if at all, over that I would suggest maybe Simic Charm for some added protection
But other than some of those things I like the deck
