{Forbidden alchemy}. Fills your GY with all kinds of goodies and gives you deck thin/partial draw power.

Can't afford the singles.  Using just what I currently own.

Thinking of dropping something for the two {Liliana of the Veil}s that I just opened.  Any thoughts?  Thanks!

That's kind of an awesome idea.  I feel like a tool for not thinking of a way to sneak in Delver...

I think it would work great with you running low creature count and high instant/sorcery count. But maybe... Just maybe... If you add delver. You might try to add in {Ponder} or {Index}. Which ever one you have, to set you your delvers.

Maybe.....

-2 {Dissipate}
-2 {Unburial Rites}
+1 {Mana Leak}
+3 {Ponder} or {Index}

I took 2 Unburial rites out bc you have sun Titan and low creature count with no self discard or self mill. And all your creatures minus sun Titan are 3 CMC or less.

I took out 2 Dissipates bc mana leak is good early game and late game even if they pay the 3 mana bc then they tap mana and can't use it! 😉 I left one dissipate so if you get it in your hand you can use it on say, big threats like planeswalkers, flashback cards, etc.

I just so happen to have the {Ponder}s.  You make very valid points, sir/madam.  I had to bring my deck to work with me as my FNM is on the way, but I'm sure I can get couple I'm missing.
