CONTAINS ONE UNPREVIEWED MORNINGTIDE CARD

Trying out a fun extended deck but I need help due to my crap deckbuilding skills:

Creatures
=========
4xLlanowar Elves
4xCarven Caryatid
4xChangeling Berserker
4xChangeling Hero

Enchantments
============
4xPandemonium

Spells
======
4xRampant Growth
4xKodama's Reach
4xUntamed Wilds
4xCongregation at Dawn
4xIdyllic Tutor(Morningtide - 2W Sorcery - Search library for enchantment and put into hand. Shuffle.)

Lands
=====
4xMountain
5xPlains
7xForest
4xTerramorphic Expanse

It's based on the idea that you can make an infinite loop of champions with three of them using pandemonium to deal damage (though of course it can win in a couple of loops). My main problem is that even with all the mana acceleration its too slow. Mostly because if i get all the pieces (pandemonium, and 3 champions) i dont get enough acceleration and if i get enough acceleration i dont get the right pieces. I've tried Wild Pair which works well but just makes it even slower. I really need a way to thin out my deck fast when ive got enough mana but not all the pieces. Any ideas?

Personally I don't think that deck is good, but if you want to make it faster and slightly better you should include wall of roots. First of all it is an accelerator on turn 2 but on top of that it gives you a creature in case you need to find one to champion. On top of that it plays defense versus the agro decks which should buy you some more time to get the combo set up. Overall the deck seems weak, it is easily disruptable and just doesn't seem too good.

It looks to me like you only have green for acceleration. Therefore, I believe Green should be cut. Now, replace the green acceleration with artifact mana. Like Coalition Relic and Prismatic Lens.

I'm sure you can get an extra colour in there. An idea would be black, for Damnation. Black also gives Faceless Butcher, which is both creature removal as well as a "champion" combo piece.

Perhaps the Idyllac tutors (which only have 1 card to search for btw) can be replaced by Liliana Vess. Liliana is a house against control, she can tutor up the cards you need to combo off, and if she can get to 8 counters she can just throw 3 champions from your graveyard right into play and win right there.

With 8 champions in the deck (and maybe 12 if you add the butchers) perhaps some Phyrexian Ragers would be a good addition.

I hope this helps.
