Notes:
I recently say a forum post saying that staticaster peddler was back. With intrigue I looked into to find that a new card from born of the gods, gorgon head, could make staticaster peddler a reality again. With this concept in my head I went about researching old peddler deck to get an idea of how the deck used to run and found that peddler deck were just 4 color good stuff decks with a bunch of value creatures. I brought this idea to the current standard with a few tweaks. Domri was an amazing addition because his fight ability becomes and instant trade with gorgon head and he helps find monster. Polukranos is amazing because you can ping multiple creatures at once. The rest of the cards are just meant to out pace your opponent.

I really like this idea. I think I'll try it

Update. Found that voyaging satyr was overkill so I added more threats to the deck. Prophets lets you untap and use staticaster again.

Try the new attack and ping dragon. I used him in limited with the head and it works well. (Plus he's only .50c)

Wow I never thought of that. It's kinda cool but I think polukranos is better, but if your trying to budget that's a great idea.

Maybe as a sideboard to swap out mr thar or stormbreath if you wanted more ping?
