The idea of the deck is pretty simple. Play control in the early game and then steal creatures late game. The wizards give you card advantage but it is kraj and cytoplast manipulator that give you the game.

I know that jushi fits the deck really well because he is a wizard and his ability is really good but i think i just might want to have some mana acceleration so i will have to play test some.

Tell me what you think. ps the sideboard is just a rough draft so that can be changed if you have some good ideas. Thanks.

ALL BOW B4 THE MAGNIFICENT CHICHI!

now that i got that off my chest, y not just make it like critical mass? thats the first thing i thought of when i looked at it. there has to be some way to update critical mass with cool new cards like coiling oracle. i like coiling oracle but i dont know what you would take out.

i think that the card that needs to be tested is that momir guy. hes 5 mana, and he only triggers for creatures if im not mistaken, so, your nearly tapped out for 2 turns if you were to drop himi that fast. y not play kudzu? he works well with the plaxcaster frog:D. btw, a meloku, that cant be targeted is GOOD for the record. Keiga? y/n? i think u could just add kudzus and keigas and cut momir, and play 1 kraj.

and trygon predator works in my deck b/c of CHORD Razz

. asians think they can just play one of's of everything and be cool like that Razz

i like the critical mass idea, drop momir faster than a heavy thing, hes too pricey. add sakuras and DEFINITELY add a couple of simic sky swallowers, wrath of god is the only single card that can kill it (other than cruel edict and probably some others that arent played), and the shoals will help you keep it alive if you tap out to play it.

drop the graft cards and add vinelashers if you want to go critical, which i recommend.

The deck is amazing against slower decks with early counters and later winning with wizard card advantage and cytoplast out to keep you opponent from playing any guys or if they do and try to be tricky you can just take them.

Aggro is a bit difficult but you can use your early drops as chump blockers and the frog is nuts. Then late game just drop meloku. You can sometimes lose to them if they have a really fast start and you miss your early drops. It is stall till meloku. But this is why the board is VS aggro decks.
