I just finished pulling together these cards for an infect deck. Could it be better?
20 LANDS
4 {Inkmoth Nexus}
4 {Verdant Catacombs}
3 {Breeding Pool}
3 {Forest}
2 {Pendelhaven}
2 {Windswept Heath}
2 {Wooded Foothills}
14 CREATURES
4 {Noble Hierarch}
4 {Blighted Agent}
4 {Glistener Elf}
2 {Spellskite}
20 INSTANTS and SORC.
4 {Groundswell}
3 {Mutagenic Growth}
3 {Might of Old Krosa}
2 {Vines of Vastwood}
2 {Apostle's Blessing}
2 {Sylvan Scrying}
1 {Spell Pierce}
1 {Gitaxian Probe}
1 {Become Immense}
1 {Dismember}
6 OTHER SPELLS
4 {Wild Defiance}
2 {Rancor}
SIDEBOARD
1 {Spellskite}
1 {Spell Pierce}
1 {Dismember}
2 {Relic of Progenitus}
2 {Twisted Image}
3 {Nature's Claim}
2 {Viridian Corrupter}
1 {Wall of Roots}
1 {Hurkyl's Recall}
1 {Dryad Arbor}
More probes less rancor. Imo. You want to see their hand before you blow your load.
I think maybe 2 less lands and 2 more probes. You have the hierarchs to make up for the deficit, and will still have the rancors for the trample.

What lands
I believe if you are splitting 6 slots among mutagenic growth and might of old krosa then you really need 4 might of old krosa and only 2 mutagenic growth
Imo I would reduce wild defiance to 2, up git probe +2
-1 fetch, -1 Spellskite main (throw one in the side) and +1 might and +1 vines.
But if you want to run 4 wild defiance main, somehow get mutegenic to 4 (it's basically a free +5/+5 when wild defiance is out) and also get {distortion strike} in there too. It's really good when you have a wild defiance out.
What do I change out for going up against different decks
Check the primers.

Check the primers.
What is that
A primer is a guide about deck types.
And how to modify them for different meta, and budgets.
If you go on magic salvation they have ones for every deck type for all formats
This is the one for infect
