I think you have a BUNCH in there! Maybe reread devotion?

Nope. Low devotion. Tokens don't contribute to devotion and he's chump blocking with his ETB creatures.

Needs more Swan's Song. 1cmc counter spells are not to be overlooked.

You mean you don't want to use U to counter the spell that's going to kill your Chimera, which happens to trample over 2/2's all day? Worst case scenario, you shock/magma jet the token and break even. 1 cmc counter spells are not to be underestimated.

Perhaps but recently the omen speakers have been seriously under performing so I tried goblin electromancer which is working better the swan song doesn't get plainswalkers which is one of the things I cannot deal with

Even with a low devotion you still get a lot of elemental token off of  {Young Pyromancer} which come out as 2/2s.

2/2 is over rated my tokens are just chomping anyhow and preserving my life total. What do you think of dragon shift?

Only deck I've gotten dragon Shift to work in is a RUG ramp deck
