Come and see me brew a Legacy deck after observing Standard:

I enjoyed reading that.

You started with Naya Blitz, make it GR and then ended up with Naya Zoo. :laugh:

BTE is very good at pushing the deck a turn ahead, even if it means Thalia has to wait until turn three.
Vexing Devils and Goyf as ways to make 4/4 Experimental Ones is nice.
EO's Regen is also good since Supreme Verdict seems to the the sweeper of choice after Terminus. I had already picked some up for my Zoo deck.

This is a very good article, and should help out newer players and those who want a methodical approach to brewing outside the box.

I can understand why it wasn't mentioned, but free online programs such as Cockatrice shouldn't be completely overlooked for testing new ideas.

As a fan of fast zoo, this article makes me happy. I would personally prefer MOAR BURN in the list, but this looks like lots of fun. I need to pick up the new stuff plus Vexing Devils.

Love your work, keep it up!
I probably brew as much as you do if not more. A good friend of mine who is a newer player plays GR beats in standard and his deck is actually very impressive, quite similar to play style as the Naya list you posted, and when you're consistently killing on turn 4 in standard, I believe Legacy exploration must occur. Anyways, while playing said GR beats deck I fell in love with BTE, that card is so fun and quite powerful with the right list.

I feel like your list needs more ways to use the green mana from BTE. Either with more green one drops or a few two drops with a colorless symbol. I really feel like turn 2 BTE into two more critters is the best play you can be making(on turn2) and you want to maximize on her consistency.

I'm surprised you went with Ghor-Clan. He's a super beast in Standard, but he honestly seems very underwhelming here. Maybe Thorn of Amethyst to compliment Thalia and BTE? I'm gonna see what I can come up with for this...

Stupid question, but why no Sylvan Library (as a one of at least)?

From what I remember, Zoo decks used to play it, and it looks like if you can get one out on turn 2 you'll have lots of gas for the deck.

Ghor Clan should definitely be Boros Charm. It's used in all the same applications (except chump blockers), but has the ability to be played by itself.
