Say whaaaat? Is this a casual deck?

Originally, yes. But it also has a lot of answers to TNN and combo that tries to outrace TNN, which seems to make up a good chunk of the format.

I wonder if it is worth cutting the splash to dodge Stifle+Wasteland, but powering DRS and getting Crop Rotation and MD Abrupt Decay seems worth it.

Thoughts? Too slow? Missing certain tools? Should there be some fatty with a bigger body to dodge all the weenie hate (e.g. Phyrexian Obliterator, Desecration Demon, etc.. and if so what does it replace?)
