U/G ramp deck.. Have growing scute mobs by turn 3, kick gigantiform or rite of replication early for the win.. Wins by direct damage or mill from the crabs, especially when theres more than 5 of them.. Equip birds with Sword of B&M to fly over the top of blockers =) Comments please, i'm not sure what else in standard right now would suit this deck, but please suggest. *sideboard is just ideas atm

I understand why you may want to run some of the cards, but having a conflicting win situation just doesn't seem like the best idea. Sword of Body and Mind simply does not seem to be that incredible in a deck like this. UG ramp decks are already capable of such impressive threats that it does not need the equipment to help it out. As for the mill strategy, I personally would abandon it for 2 main reasons. 1: Mill becomes a nearly impossible strategy if playing an opponent with a legendary eldrazi in their deck and is rough even against Trinket Mages finding Elixer of Immortality. 2: You can already make this deck capable of such potent win conditions that are faster/better/much larger threats than mill creatures and trying to throw them both in the same deck leads to a poor win strategy. Take poison decks for example. Would it make sense to run a deck with half infect creatures and half non-infect creatures like Goblin Guide? Of course not! It's like the same type of thing with your mill strategy. Beyond this, the deck seems like it can certainly have wicked crazy draws and seems like a lot of fun to play. Thanks for pointing it out to me. I do like the idea of Trinket Mage in the deck and had already been debating it in my own list. Have you tested this deck much? How has it worked out for you?

It's worked great, yeah it's a bit of an uncommitted win condition but it reaches either one consistently.. Hedron crabs were just too good to pass up in such a deck, even if there win condition can be sdtifled by legendary eldrazi, I still have a 0/2 in the end.. Sword of B&M is great, 9 times out of 10 it's thrown on the birds, and again, if they have eldrazi, im still hitting for 2 and generating tokens.. but this deck was more for ideas than anything else, I have a U/G that runs terra stomper and the titans etc. but this one definately goes a different direction.. Iv'e tried devoting a win condition of mill by adding black for memoricide, sadistic sacrament, doom blade, verdant catacombs, grave titan and that worked ok too.. But yeah, ideas ideas... I'm playing a R/G Controlish deck at the moment, theres heaps of options in standard right now so it's hard -_-
