12 mountains for 8 red cards and 8 islands for the others? I think it's better 12 islands 8 mountains, don't u?

Personally, I would remove a cantrip (card that has 'draw a card' as a second ability) and replace with some burn, {Red Sun's Zenith}, {Fireball}, one of the many 'deal 13 damage card from the new block, etc...

What about {Turn Aside} for protection?

{Deceiver exarch} + {splinter twin} = infinite creatures. So I recommend {deceiver exarch}

{Midnight guard} and {presence of gond}

I think this combo deserves its limelight in its own thread in Combo Corner...

So we should be splashing two more colors here? :P
{Pestermite} is a good 5-8 {Deciever Exarch}
Being a combo deck, I'd leave any card drawing in there.

Well it could just have {midnight guard}, the {splinter twin} would still work with him

I wouldn't run three colors unless you absolutely have to. This deck is winning enough with UR.

Toss in a {warstorm surge} and your infinite combo has a win condition.

I think attacking with a billion hasty {Deceiver Exarch}s is enough of a win-con, don't you?

{Pestermite} and/or {Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker}?
