I like Demonic Appetite for this deck. It can make you Momentous Falls bigger, and can even give you another way of getting rid of your Persecutor if he has to go.

Spawning Breath belongs in this deck!
Heh ya I think the idea was to do the best you can with the packs your opened. This looks like a pretty solid deck for the format. The 4 Goblin Arsonist is amazing in limited. Did you have any mana problems at all?
So Rest for the Weary actually targets you as 'target player' so your Dormant Gomazoa untaps right?
I cast the skittering invasion one time, and it basically saved my butt against a U/W deck. The invasion gave me enough blockers and annihilator bait to survive a turn of his Hand of Emrakul, and sac them for my own Artisan of Kozilek which returned a gloomhunter to block a flyer he had. Next turn I finished by attacking with the Artisan, a Demonic Appetite spawn token, and an Ogre's Cleaver spawn token. This was my favorite game of the tourny, and my blood pressure was definitely up as I was down one game already and I was at 3 life when I pulled off the invasion and turned the game around. I won the third game handedly with Sarkhan on turn 5.
Thanks for the feedback! Not likely to be a powerhouse deck, but I wanted to build something to increase the likelihood of pulling off a kicked Blood Tribute with Sanguine Bond in play. I'm pretty confident that in casual play you will win more than a few games in that manner with this set-up.
Last week at FNM we played 2-headed giant. 2nd and 3rd place teams featured a version of this deck idea with a few changes. -switch out land ramp for counters (cancel / negate) and board protection (vines of vastwood and unsummon worked for me) -remove all green allies except for the harabaz druid and add in halimar excavator -a few fog and ponders Get out 2 or 3 allies quick and protect them for a turn 5 kicked rite on the excavator, rolling at least 180 cards for the win. Was a BLAST to play. Alternate win cons came for my partner and I (we were 3rd place) by simply kicking rite on a kazandu blademaster one time (for 5, 5/5 blademasters all at once), and then another time on a vampire nighthawk. Optionally drop in a few Gigantiform, and happily pay for the expensive kicker with your harabaz to drop a few 8/8 tramplers for a win. If your opponents cant or dont kill your sneaky little harabaz druid, a kicked rite of replication is almost a sure thing!
