A standard Zoo deck. Thoughts?

Wally

If you are going to play blasphemous act you should probably run  {Boros Reckoner}

Alantaidai

Maybe side selesnya charm.

@Wally & Alantaidai

What if I replaced the {Blasphemous Act}s for {Selesnya Charm}?

Wally

That would work. It would proabably also make your deck more consistent with a lower mana curve :)

SheepAtog

3 {domri rade} would be awesome here

Most times {Blasphemous Act} would be cast for free if I need it to be played but Selesnya charm may provide more utility.

Looking to make room for 4x {Vexing Devil}. Thoughts?

Most definetly, the devil is always a good call. Try SB the militants for them

I didn't mention this before but I'm looking at cutting {Rancor} or {Lightning Mauler} for the  {Vexing Devil}s. What do you think?

JordanCirk

If you're choosing between those two, cut the rancors. Doing turn two burning tree + burning tree + lighting mauler paired is just too good. I'd strongly recommend domri in here though. He's too much of a house and control has problems dealing with him. Trust me, he's amazing.

Removed {Rancor} for {Scavenging Ooze} and {Lightning Mauler} for {Vexing Devil}. Thoughts?
