Deck Description

Win Conditions: Spellheart Chimera, Keranos and Chandra.

How to Play

Setup: Use Dakra Mystic, Taigam's Scheming and Tormenting Voice to put as many instants and sorceries into the graveyard as you feel you can get away with. Use the scry effects on burn spells, temples and Omenspeaker to stack your topdeck favourably. Burn and counter anything your opponent plays to slow them down and build up your win condition.

Play Spellheart Chimera, depending on your prep, he can come in as big as a 6/3 as early as turn 3

Or:

Play Keranos and use scrys and Dakra Mystic to ensure you draw a non-land as often as possible.

Sideboarding:

Bring in Stubborn Denial against Aggro decks to counter their early creatures whilst you set up. With the Chimera, or if you get Keranos' devotion paid, this becomes a 1 Blue mana Cancel spell.

Bring in Peel from Reality if you find you need more scry ability and use it to bounce Omenspeaker, as well as stall your opponent.

Bring in Anger of the Gods against the likes of monogreen decks that run lots of mana dorks and especially Sylvan Caryatid.

Want to play a more aggro approach? Bring in the Monastery Swiftspears and Titan's Strength. First turn that she swings she's a 1/2, slap on a Titan's Strength (or 2) and she jumps up to a 5/4 (or a 9/6), use your burn spells on the player rather than his creatures and try to strike a finishing blow with Spellheart.
