Yea it's now looking at more midrange than control. I'm looking into Advent of the Wurm for this deck. Also, I only have 3 Loxodon Smiters.

Why would I take out higher cost creatures when I have mana ramp? I'd rather have Wolfir over Silverblade because Wolfir can pump up Master Biomancer. As for Geist of Saint Traft, that idea could work because Geist would come up bigger than a 2/2. I'll try to fit him into the board if I can't main deck him. I had Restoration Angel in the deck before but I took her out. She would be nice to have but really the only thing I would want to target with her is Thragtusk. If I target Prime Speaker Zegana, I'd be getting mass card advantage but I'd also be practically milling myself.
Yea, I'm still working on it. I got lots to work on and I'll try all of your ideas. Please keep them coming.
Two color decks don't really do that well in this format. The only two color decks I've seen place were Gruul aggro and an Azorius control deck that splashed black producing mana for Nephalia Drownyard. Dimir just doesn't do well on it's own in this block.
I played it against my Murican Control deck and it tore this deck apart because it didn't have enough threats. Snapcaster was nice but in reality I was only using him to counter something again when I'd rather be playing a big creature to pressure my opponent.
Needed the deck to be more aggressive. I took out Snapcaster and added in a 4th Thragtusk and 2nd AEtherling.
Not really a big fan of Humanimator. Reanimator decks in general don't do well at my shop here but I've gone again'st some pretty good ones. Cool combos though. EDIT: More of a control player.
Yea I need to get another Angel of Serenity for that pseudo solar flare combo. I'm looking to see which lands to take out for at least 2 Alchemist's Refuge. Also, don't have any Progenitor Mimic. Not a big fan of him anyways.
That is a pretty cool combo. Don't see that getting off in a competitive deck but you did say that this deck wouldn't do well against that. Cool combo though. Might want to add in at least one more Sorin.
Intangible Virtue. Also what is the purpose of Angel of Glory's Rise?
Agreed! Only I don't have a 4th Biomancer lol. Thanks for the help!
Took out Gyre Sage and Increasing Savagery for Arbor Elf. Don't like that Gyre Sage can't add in mana on its own. Took out one Loxodon Smiter for one Thragtusk.
Want to keep at least 1 Increasing Savagery just cause I like that card in here. I don't mind dropping 1 Wolfir either. I'll try playtesting with 2 Thragtusks and 1 Increasing Savagery then I'll try it with 3 Thragtusks and no Increasing Savagery. See how it runs. Thanks everyone for your input.
Run them both?
I'll do a test run of it this way. I love Thragtusk but Wolfir provides another way to buff up Biomancer with his buff. Or if the deck isn't running that particular way I can pair him with Prime Speaker and get some massive card advantage. It's a touch choice but I'll just have to see what I like better.
Dropped 1 Increasing Savagery and 1 Gyre Sage. Took out Thragtusk and Restoration Angel and put in Wolfir Silverheart. Added in 4 Farseek. So 10 sources in the deck help me ramp up mana. Kept Garruk and Jace in as well.
I was thinknig the same about Wolfir. If I take out Thragtusk then maybe I can take out Restoration Angel since that is the only thing worth bouncing unless Prime Speaker is out. Also I was looking to take out Garruk over Jace since Jace can filter the deck better and doesn't cost as much mana.
Leaning towards taking out Garruk tbh
Kinda don't want to remove Avacyn's Pilgrim. I do still want to put in Farseek but I really don't wanna take pilgrim out. It does waay more than provide a turn 2 Smiter.
It puts counters on Gyre Sage/Master Biomancer or it'll just bump up a creature.
