What would those cards add to the deck that it can't do already and at what cost would it come, what would you have to cut to accomodate those cards?

And that, children, is Goblins syndrome.
Well... Punishing Maverick is just a worse Jund, Dark Maverick is a worse Rock/Nic Fit and Stage/Depths doesn't do that quite as well as other decks do so, you know...
Other decks got stronger or evolved. Maverick, suffering from Goblins syndrome, didn't.
Courser actually shines in the lategame. It gets rid of topdecked lands and repurposes fetchlands into shuffle effect to get rid of other unwanted cards on the top. It has helped me win quite a...
If you want to improve your topdecks, try a Courser of Kruphix with a shitload of shuffle effects.
Works like a charm.
Concerning Lotus Cobra: That's all very nice, but you still have to keep in mind Daze is a card and so are Lightning Bolt/Abrupt Decay/any other random creature removal spell.
By the time you're...
Well... Sigarda can't be hit by your opponents' spotremoval, eats Delver for breakfast and flies over TNN. But mostly the "can-only-be-answered-by-big-ass-sweepers" bit.
How so? You can't feed it to your Knight, he only likes Plains and Forests. You just have to hope your opponent doesn't Wasteland it next turn, that's all. Besides, worst case scenario you get to...
Because oversights. I'll update the list. Though maybe we'll want to make it a Quirion Ranger. Quirion Ranger + manadork = 4 mana on turn 2 (3 after casting Quirion Ranger).
You're going from a GWb deck to GWbur. Let's try to limit that to GWbu. The 20 damage thing is solved by either having enough land or making a 10/10 Knight able to attack for 2 turns straight.
I'd say instead of Kessig Wolf Run. This way, you eliminate the need for red mana. I'd suggest this build to work with:
4 Knight of the Reliquary
4 Mother of Runes
1 Birds of Paradise
1 Gaddock...
Kessig Wolf Run would also give it trample to deal with hexproof creatures/TNN. Nice find!
Do you have enough Forests, Plains and fetches in your manabase to grow it big enough..?
Looking a PowerDragn's list for example, he just barely makes the number required and also lacks a way to...
Yes you do. I reckon you end your cycle with using all leftover activations to fetch 4 Wasteland to nuke your opponent. Or a couple of Wasteland + DD-combo. Or to abuse a manadork. After that, all...
Don't forget Elves also got Reclamation Sage a little while back. Elves can now just GSZ to break the countertop-lock. It might be time to put it back in the maindeck. Terminus is still brutal...
