Armageddon and path to exile both seem very good with land tax. Horizon canopy too.

The taxing effects of this deck won't ever allow a castable Armageddon. Path to Exile works counter to what the deck wants to do which is tax the opponent.

Horizon Canopy is a good suggestion. Don't want too many non basics though. Might add one or two.

Armageddon and path would replace the sphere plan. It is also worth noting that blue adds synergy with brainstorm, fathom seer, daze, spell pierce, stifle and green brings knight of the reliquary, noble hierarch, birds of paradise, terravore, scryb ranger.

It sounds like you want to fundamentally change my deck. Perhaps you should go create your own Land Tax deck instead of messing mine up.

Anyway, take it easy, he wants to help

Wow.

This deck has a really streamlined gameplan, and chags is suggesting cards that will work against the gameplan. I mean why don't I just go into the Goblins.dec thread and suggest people start adding my favorite red creatures like Magus of the Moon and Jackal Pup?

If someone could add some constructive criticism that would be appreciated.
