I built this deck using a little bit of insiperation from Canadian Threshold and some old & new tech. It won two of my local weekly legacy tournies and seems pretty solid, although it did have a few hiccups along the way on games one, but post sideboard was pretty good.
Tuktuk I found is a house when he hits the board either as a mindless attacker but also effective for sitting back and blocking for Jace, no one wanted to see the 5/5 come in, he is also a nice target for Fire/Ice. The Serendibs were very good as FoW fodder and applying pressure in the air. The maindeck sowers are great main deck Vs. reanimator, Tombstalker, other goyfs, etc... Maindeck Stifles along with the Wastelands worked great for mana denial and Stifle doing double duty with troublesome abilities.
In the sideboard I found Firespout coming in almost every time to deal with faster decks, and the best thing is everything but sowers lives through a Firespout, and combined with Bolts & Fire/Ice my opponents stuff died promptly. The Blasts speak for themselves, usually replacing stifles and sowers or vs. goblins and elves replacing spell pierce.
I'm open to any ideas and criticisms.
