{Prophet of Kruphix} isn't that much but is 100% needed in any maze end deck.  I would take out the  {Sylvan Caryatid} for her, maybe even try to run 4 to make sure you get one.
I had her in the deck, but I don't have a lot of creatures so I wasn't seeing a huge benefit from her.

She untaps your gates/maze on your opponent's turn. It speeds up maze gate-fetching tremendously.

Haven't looked through the whole list, but {wasteland viper} is strictly better than your 1-drop viper.

Google "EDH staples" and take 30min or so looking at all the cards. Best advice ever.

Oh, and pay more attention to cards that have a recurring effect. It's all about having permanents on the board

{consuming aberration} is a win con unto himself.

{Traumatize} works with Chimera. Kind of a hefty drop tho.

Updated. This deck would just get demolished by ratchet bomb though.

Mono-blue does that. It's something they have to play around.

Off the bus.
Lvl. 52 Aurorus
Lvl. 54 Greninja
Lvl. 54 Charizard
Lvl. 55 Lucario
Lvl. 58 Blaziken
Lvl. 58 Florges

Not my greatest team every by any means, but each individual pokemon is very powerful and have decent type cocerage as a group. I have 6 badges and my pokemon clearly are a higher level then the game intended for me to have at this point.

Sounds like Pokemon. So easy to lose track of time while grinding.

Not really a tempo deck. Closer to control

{Ruric Thar, the Unbowed} hard to kill vs control ive sided those in and people dont know how to play against that

{Shadowborn demon} is basically the only solid answer to it.

If you can, you should drop by Channel Fireball @ San Jose. It can get fairly competitive

What's the cheapest top tier standard deck next to mono red right now? My guess is mono black devotion, does that seem right?

Desecration demon going up. $13 right now, right? Alas, it is a sad day for all you guys who didn't invest when they were $3-4

Cheapest deck floating around is still mono-black. Knew {Desecration demon} would go up. Glad I bought 12 when they were $3 a pop.
