Moving away from pure jank:

Aetherflux Reservoir could be an alternate win condition that also keeps you in the game for a while.

Koth of the Hammer is just an all-around fantastic card. Gives you ramp and targets for Zada's ability.

Twinflame also goes infinite just fyi. Also Kher Keep has saved me in desperate situations. Sweet list, and thanks for organizing it like this. Might need to add Outpost Siege to my deck.

How have you felt about Rile? I would love another 1 mana draw spell, but am scared of the whole "kill all of my own tokens" aspect.

thuih Thanks! Both Twinflame and Kher were in the deck at one point but have since been moved out, not for any particular reason. Outpost siege is great, I'm almost always happy to see it. I have yet to test Rile out and it scares me as well. It'll probably stick until a better version comes along. Thanks again!

Never thought about Zada and storm... but that is a lot of spells being copy!!!

No comments on Fiery Gambit? It is a sorcery with a single target, and so satisfies all of Zada's requirements for copies.

On average:- For every 4 creatures you have, you'll do 6 damage to each opponent.- For every 8 creatures you have, you can refill your hand and untap all your lands.

The best bit is, there is only a downside (3 damage to a creature) if you get to a better result, and choose to accept it. Say you win 1 flip on an important creature - Krenko, Mob Boss, for example. You just keep flipping.
If you get 2 flips, then you weigh up whether 6 damage to each opponent is worth Krenko. If not, keep flipping.If you get 3 flips, then you're weighing up whether 9 cards and untap all lands is worth Krenko. If not, keep flipping until you lose one - at which point, that copy of the spell targeting Krenko does nothing.

It's fairly easy to get the sort of numbers you need to have it win the game on the spot.
