I found an absolutely insane monsters deck that splashes white for {karametra god of the harvest} and green for {Prophet of Kruphix}

Depends on your meta

If you're seeing a lot of enchantment play: def polis crusher

Otherwise I like ghorclanz personally for that unexpected blood rush, you just wanna make sure they are tapped out so no tricks happen to the target

i would say +2 {stormbreath dragon} -2 {flame-wreathed phoenix}. killing an elspeth guarenteed is better than them just d sphereing your phoenix once you pass turn.

I actually side out the Phoenixes for the mistcutters vs control :)
