If your going with the burn side, {crackling perimeter} is an amazing card.  Also most maze end decks run {prophet of kruphix} for the untaps.  Might hurt you with all the destruction, but still keep in mind.

Crackling perimeter is great but I need the open mana at all times and that's where prophet would be great. But if I want to use it I would need to remove my board ko's because it dies to 6 of my own cards. Ill have to think about what I could sub if I want to use prophet. Maybe have 2 verdicts as a backup plan and have 4  {Far // Away} thanks to having 5 colors o mana. Or change it up and have crackling and prophet be most of the removal. Idk that would work as well though

Also a good combo with far and away for this deck is {Gatecreeper Vine}! Surely no maze deck should be without it?

The great think about {crackling perimeter} though is, if your opponent doesn't do anything worthy of countering or anything, and the end of their turn, tap your gates for damage, then they untap on your untap step, free damage for unused mana.

I might have to rearrange or make another mazes deck using prophet as well

I'm actually looking at  {Quicken} instead of divination and I'm going to take out haunted plate mail so that will give me space for gatekeeper

Went I fnm and went 4-0 with it. Awesome lol

Prplprince

I've added a side board that converts the deck into turbo fog just as a back up plan

Vileo

I'd -4 Treasured Find +4 {Dissolve} or something.

I've got the treasure finds to recycle fogs or burns I've used

Vileo

I get that, but if you have a dissolve, they cast a Fanatic with lethal, and you don't have a riot control? You could have just countered it and not had to worry about it. Fogs especially are temporary solutions, and Find is taking that to an extreme. You want mostly answers, instead of just stalling. If at any one point you can't fog and you haven't found a wrath, you just die.

I'd run 4 gate creepers.

After playing the deck so far I don't need to run more then two. I can change it up if necessary though

Vileo

Should I just go ahead and bump my Maze's End list?

That would be cool. What kind do you run?
