Thanks, i haven't actually gotten the chance to play the deck because no one at either pree-release had any preeminent captains

I too have made a deck around charge counters, but it revolved around moving charge counters. give it a look see when you get the chance.

I don't know, i never ended up making it.
but i have a friend who has a "snake deck" and he doesnt do well.
But from what i have heard as long as you draw Sosuke's Summons you should do fairly well

I would remove spreading seas for Aquiects Will. It has a lower mana cost, its harder to destroy, and you can still draw a card with it

This is a very nice deck. I too run the mono-white soldier edh with odric as commander.
I suggest running a catapult master, which for me works extremely well as a removal.
Nomads assembly, conqueror's Pledge, and evangel of heliod are all great cards for spaming tokens.
i would also look into adding an intrepid hero.

Since you're only running 5 islands, I would replace the Grixis grimblade with Zombie Master or Unbreathing Horde.
Personally, I prefer Mono-black Zombies, but if you really feel like going with the multicolored deck Lich Lord of Unx is a must.

I would replace the hand of emrakul with artisan of kozilek, just because you don't have any spawn tokens in this deck + you can bring back some of your creatures with it

Here is a link to the merfolk deck that i made a while back. http://www.mtgvault.com/brandonpeterson/decks/fins-and-wins/

I would replace the trickster with Tideshaper Mystic, as it can make your opponets land into an island, if they happen to be using a deck with out islands in it, so when you give your merfolk island walk they are actually unblockable.

You need more counter spells. You have built a deck that mainly revolves around your commander, but you don't have things that can protect it from removal spells. Also Guile is next to pointless with out counter spells.

Not the main point of the deck, but not bad

Thanks!
I looked at your deck and i liked it a lot. i didn't know about cloak and Dagger so now i have to choose a card to replace it with :D

I suggest a Knight of the Hokey Pokey

Ordeal of Nylea and Ordeal of Erebos are good ways to get counters plus they have added affects.

Thanks for the suggestions, though instead of the chalice of the void, I used ratchet bomb, because it can put counters on itself and i can choose to activate its ability, rather than just have it counter what I'm trying to play.

Thanks a lot!

Lower mana cost birds like Judges familiars and Suntail hawks are a must. that will put more feather counters on Soulcatchers' Aerie faster.

you have 8 pride of the clouds...

I would replace defend the hearth with fog, as it is still standard and costs less mana.
If you're going for heroic, Anthousa, Setessan Hero isn't a bad choice.

I would replace necropotence with underworld dreams
