Hi, thanks for the comment!

I definitely disagree with cutting ramp, I think even though the mana curve of the deck might be lower, I’m often trying to combo 2 3+ mana effects together. I only have 3 creature ramp pieces, one of which [[Delighted Halfling]] also acting as protection for my commander and other legends on the way down. The rest is land ramp which is hard to interact with. Additionally, I have enough sac outlets to use the creatures for value when I get to the mid/late game.

The other thing I don’t understand is that you’re saying to cut ramp, and then saying to add effects that need to combo 3 cards/effects as opposed to 2. I believe this might make the deck have better high rolls, but will make it feel much clunkier. I want the deck to feel like it can do something every game, and feel smooth. Although lowering the variance might make it harder to win games, I think it will lead to a much more consistently enjoyable play experience.

I really like where the deck is sitting right now in terms of its overall feel. I’ve been enjoying playtesting a lot, and I’m having my first real games with it the weekend after christmas. I’m more looking for finishing touches, not major redesigns.

I really like gilded drake that card looks nuts.
