Just saw a list 5-0 that ran 3 Warping Wail (2 main, 1 side). Interesting. Would this be to help Show & Tell/other fast combo?
I tried it once but I'm not a fan of it. When you need it, you don't have it in hand or loamed it away. DRS can be killed with PF (or you at least have the same problem not drawing it). WW can be countered as well. And for Edicts I like the Mishra's Facrory more. MF even stops DRS from attacking.

World Shaper
3G
Creature - Merfolk Shaman
Whenever World Shaper attacks, you may put the top three cards of your library into your graveyard.
When World Shaper dies, put all land cards from your graveyard onto the battlefield tapped.

Wierd, expensive, interesting. Thoughts? :)
It's too expensive for decks to board in as an effective counter to our dedicated LD package.
For us, I don't think it can replace Tracker because Tracker is good w/o a graveyard while WS is heavily graveyard dependent.
Tracker is our Mentor, it will take one hell of a card to replace him.
How do you guys feel about tracker and chalice vs. delver? My buddy swears by it, but I have the feeling these things are easier to deal with than his actual combo if he fully commits to it.
Depends on the colours of said Delver. Against UR I don't side Trackers as they don't have time to grow and live through burn and as long as opponent don't have hard grave hate I don't need them as plan B. Against Grixis I'd try 1 or 2, they are nice bait for counters and edicts, out for surgical and t1 DRS.
As for Chalice - I don't play them for over a year in favour of Spheres. They simply hurt our own play too much for my taste, against things like Delver I used them rarely. BUG can handle them with Abrupts, Grixis with Command, UR is usually dead to it on 1, yet it's not a must have in this matchup, fast combo or strong glacial / wastelock is enough.
Wayward Swordtooth
2G
Creature - Dinosaur
Ascend (If you control ten or more permanents, you get the city's blessing for the rest of the game.)
You may play an additional land on each of your turns.
Wayward Swordtooth can't attack or block unless you have the city's blessing.
Instant 4 of?

TT is a card advantage engine, while this is an exploration effect, so they serve different purposes. I like that the 5 toughness makes it hard to remove, but I'm not sure it's good enough to cut any cards I'm currently running.
Dies to Decay and Push. Not exactly hard to remove and in no way something I would run before Azusa.
It isn't good enough. If you really really want to have more than 4 Explorations, you maybe already have them in the deck.
Sakura-Tribe Scout, Manabond, Burgeoning, Azusa...
Replacing them with that 3cmc thing well...I don't think it's an improvement.
If you don't already have them you don't need a 3cmc Exploration on dead legs.
with 10+ permanents in play to enable, it could be turned on by turn 4, but more than likely you won't have that many lands to play by then. it seems like a strictly worse exploration that dodges less removal than an enchantment. I might try a couple in my manabond slots, but manabond is just nuts when it is good, and passable when it is not.
by no means is it comparable with tracker; but at the same time, by no means does it compete with tracker enough to contemplate pushing tracker out.
definitely not an instant 4of.
That card is about as far from an instant 4 of as you can get :laugh:.
