I could really use some suggestions of how to speed this up. (deck:door-to-nothingness-18-07-12-2) I have tried and tried and I still can't get it to go off faster than turn 10. I could also use some suggestions about how to hold off my opponent until I can trigger the Door. The Melira, Sylvok Outcast +Phyrexian Unlife is kinda fun but very card intensive. I also need suggestions on how to cut the cards so that I can fit in a few more land as it is just a bit shy on land.
I run it in my scarecrow deck. 2x Bloom Tender and 1x Scuttlemutt and call it a day.

JHasdin that is pretty sweet but I forgot to mention I was looking to keep it Standard legal.

bagthesnoot that does look pretty good but it requires 9 cards including the land drops you need to hit. Not a high probability play. Plus the Door is sitting out there for 2 of your opponents turns which give him time to see it coming and react. It's kinda why I put the card:Alchemist's Refuge in the deck. As soon as you have the mana to fire it off you flash it in at the end of your opponents turn and it untaps at the start of yours and then you pop it for the win. I have kinda decided that unless I get a perfect start, it will take a while to fire off so I have been looking at ways to stay alive until then but I asked thinking that I might have missed something. I toyed with the idea of Thatcher's Revolt and card:Captain's Call to combo with the card:Druids' Repositorys but it didn't playtest well so I dumped them.

Oops, Just looked at the deck again and noticed that the latest incarnation of the deck does have 2 Thatcher's Revolts back in it. This deck has gone through many versions trying to get it just right and it's still a long ways off.

Lots of sweepers, and Gilded Lotus plus Phyrexian Metamorph . Add a few more ramp spells and you're done.
i.e.T1: Birds of Paradise T2: Rampant Growth T3: Door to Nothingness T4: Gilded Lotus , Phyrexian Metamorph copying the Lotus T5: Activate Door!!! YAY!!!!!!!!
