I wanna make something similar but use proliferate to hasten tamiyo and gideons counters and also use resto angel to use Gideon twice :D
Throw in some {Gitaxian Probes}'s. Paying 2 life to entreat is great 😄. You even get another angel then.
{ponder} has to be a 4 of in a miracle deck......yes it is no {brainstorm} but deck manipulation is so powerful and essential with miracles. I would consider 4 of for {mana leak} as well. {Geist of saint} is needed to help with extra damage or legend ruling other Geists. Also, proliferating for just Tamiyo is not worth adding those cards. There is no benefit to getting Gideon's counters up since he does not have an ultimate. Last suggestion would be {Snapcaster Mage}. I think you start by moving all{ devistation tide} to the SB, all Gideon to the SB, drop to 3 tamiyo, maybe 1 terminus to the SB, and drop to just 1 tome scour which is awesome with tamiyos ultimate and not that great by itself. Last thought, Delver rocks in here given all the instant/sorc.
Very important about draw cards... Read the miracle effect it has to be the first turn draw
Correction first draw of te turn poor wording on my part
Yes it has to be first draw of the turn so this would not work

I've messed around with the numbers and tried different variants, honestly the combination of Gideon and tamiyo is pretty strong, if you get them both out. Gideon protects you as well as tamiyo, and the synergy between tamiyos tapping ability and Gideon's destroying a tapped creature is very valuable. As far as the devastation tides, I like having a max amount of board clearers to deal with overruns and hexproof. I have geists and snappy in my sideboard. And as far as proliferate, yea it's not needed, when the deck works,(7-0) on cockatrice already, matches not wins) I have no problem getting tamiyo to 8 loyalty, however I usually don't opt to ultimate with her, I just use her to tap or draw cards. The one time I did ultimate with her, I too decked an entreat the angels on the next turn and made 7 angels, my opponent then conceded.
I should note that a BWG humans deck almost beat me, he was using Gideon and tamiyo as well, and kept taking mine out with the planeswalkers/legendary rule, he had me down to 4, but a {thinktwice} on his turn miracled in a {terminus}, and a topdecked {entreat the angels} on my turn forced him to concede. I've only ever finished 2 games, everyone else has conceded. I honestly have had no problem with Mage-blade, but a pod deck gave me a run for my money. I have considered more {ponder} but I've found that I use it more for setting up my land base or shuffling rather than setting up miracles.
And also, THANK YOU!!! To all the imtg users who have made this deck possible with your help in trades!

Unless you probe on their turn. 😊
It's not an instant
Love {Noxious Revival}ing my miracles. I play R/W/U miracles so {Faithless Looting} gets me the land and I discard my miracles.
