The problem with him is that he is substantially worse than murktide and has dissynergy with it.

Yah if anyone wants to make trix work in the year of our lord 2024, this could be a great add.

Why not run culling the meek if the goal is consistent 5 mana on t2
There are lots of options for extra sac effects and green creatures though. It’s not just a 4 of + 4 of situation like the others.

Apparently MH3 is printing a cycle of free sac outlets. I think this breaks nic fit.

I’ve basically quit magic, but some thoughts on curses. There were two ideas behind the deck: dark ritual can be good in a fairish shell and expensive one card comboes are viable even in a fow/daze...
Are you saying that decks always have perfect mana utilization before they have 4 lands? People save fetches for brainstorm all the time. Holding fetches costs 1 mana every turn for the chance to...
Mystic sanctuary is a widely played card. This is not quite as powerful an effect, but is much much better before your 4th land, and can be paired with any fetch or deck.
I think basically any...

Other neat synergies:

The cases from the new set are very similar to quests or classes. 2 in particular play for this deck well enough to encourage me to play magic again.

Why are we not playing sram? It’s a pure steel Paladin that costs 1W.
Flayer husk or mortar pod seem better than the sai as they come with creatures and sac outlets attached.

The clear comparison is Patchwork Automaton, which does see play. Drake flies, pitches to fow, and comes with extra permanents/ca vs the tempo of ward and ancient tomb synergy.
I think it’s close...
With pirate kings mana base it seems somewhat reasonable. Crystal vein or gemstone into tomb or crystal vein would let you do that curve.
Yes that exact play happened in my first match against CT with humans and I got extremely salty. It probably doesn’t happen frequently enough to matter though.
Wanderer beats MBT sometimes even if not hardcast.

If I was working on this deck and we are ok with not winning...
To beat MBT you need to hit wanderer/emrakul before the 2nd creative technique. That’s very unlikely with only 5 hits.
I’m not sure they should be 4 ofs, but several maelstrom wanderer lets you beat mindbreak trap. Emrakul gives you free points vs S&T and Painter.
The primary reason for them is to win on the same...
Why are we playing tempo instead of madness? Psychatog is much much worse than beaters like murktide. But it’s not that much worse as a discard outlet than Lotleth Troll and Putrid Imp. At least...
Bargain might see play as an ad nauseum that plays better with beseech the mirror and force of Will. However peer into the abyss is only 1 more mana.

If both halves were green perhaps their would be potential.

It does seem very easy to just name 4 common non-basic non-wincon cards if there are a lot of people. It should at least require outright losses.
Not that I suspect anyone of doing this, but...
