I've tried many different RUG builds, but this one has everything that was strong in each individual build. Oracle of Mul Daya is weak compared to Garruk because I've had 2 out before but failed to flip over lands for three turns, whereas Garruk: Gives you 2 extra Mana no matter what, comes into play and opens you up Mana Leak mana, and his ultimate is an additional win condition. At the recent indianapolis tournament, an opponent spreading seased my man-land when I didn't have any blue, and I was able to put the blue in the pool, untap it with garruk, and add the 2nd blue to cast frost titan for the win.

3 frost titan, 4 jtms, and 1 deprive and only 6 blue mana sources? cut the khalni garden for another island. change the 2 spreading seas into preordain and explore #4. try one garruck and one oracle. the gobline ruinblasters are spicy and easy to cut vs mono color decks. i would even recommend cutting the maindeck deprive for another beater (precursor golem or another titan). hope that helps

For the blue mana, keep in mind the power of fetch lands. With misty rainforest and scalding tarn, I have 12 possible cards that can be blue mana when needed, plus the cobra can give me blue, and garruk can untap an island after I put blue in my pool, so 18 cards total. The 2 ruinblasters usually have a target, as even mono colored decks usually have nonbasics (Teetering peaks in red, Emeria in white, etc), and if I go first, I can drop a land, pass turn, have them do the same. Then on turn 2 I can either cobra or explore, then pass turn, then they're drop their second land. Then on my third turn, if they have a nonbasic I can kick the ruinblaster and leave them starting their 3rd turn with only 1 land while I will have potentially 5 mana available on my next turn. As for Garruk vs the Oracle: I used to run only oracles until I had 2 in play at the same time, and flipped 3 nonland cards in a row; I realized that they will only help me ramp sometimes, but Garruk always will (plus he comes into play and immediately gives me mana leak mana back). And I'm torn on the precursor golem because of the drawback, but he might have a place in this deck. Thanks for the input.
