I've been playing this deck for a few weeks now. It's a very bomby deck that has a ton of cool interactions/combos, such as:

Crystal Shard + Gilded Drake
Crystal Shard + Draining Welk
Crystal Shard + CitP Abilities in general
Kiki-Jiki + Pestermite
Time Stretch + Wild Ricochet
etc...

The deck seems to run pretty well, and the only cards that I am not always happy with are the manlands (I feel like they should be cut, but I don't know for what [not basics, I'm trying to keep it true Highlander]) and Fathom Trawl, which is just in there now as a replacement for Gifts Ungiven after it was banned.

Any comments/suggestions you might have would be appreciated.

If you want a second Crystal Shard, there's always Erratic Portal.

I also love the Pickles combo in a deck such as this:

Vesuvan Shapeshifter + Brine Elemental to lock your opponents out of the game.

I wonder if something like Sleep would be useful in this deck? I know it's only target player but it seems like it'd be a savage play to take control of the game and then effectively Yosei them for a turn to go in for the win.

I didn't even know Erratic Portal existed. I will have to try to get my hands on one of those.

I don't think that the Pickles combo would really be effective in this deck, because:
1. It only has Tooth and Nail as a way to search up the combo
2. The combo pieces aren't that great by themselves.
3. In a mostly multiplayer environment, I think it would just be a dick move. It's like one of those combos where they are like "ok you win, we are going to keep playing".

Sleep could possibly work, but I feel like it might be a case of being not as great in multiplayer. Could be worth a shot though.

I like it. Intet is a pretty cool General.

If you want to drop the manlands, add cycling lands, an Intuition, and a Life from the Loam. They should be in there for sure.

Is Jace really that good? You draw, you draw, and then the whole table draws. That will usually put make you just even in cards, and sometimes completely behind.

Silvan Library is probably worth a slot.

I already have the cycling lands in there, but loam and intuition are probably a good idea. I don't really know why jace is in there, but you are right, he is not really worth it in multiplayer.
