Havoc Festival combos with Platinum Emerion - oneof my "fun/jank" moves, and another is Black Carriage?Elemental Mastery if you like infinite kills
Invocation of Saint Traft seems ideal for a budget Spirits deck. Also maybe add Uninvited Guest (cut a few of the Bygone Bishop's and Sweep Away to get some damage through. Blue/white spirits have worked very well in draft at my LGS and I am hoping a cheap flyers deck can be just as strong in a casual meta. Hope some of this is helpful.
Decent take on the Hellbent mechanic, but I feel you are playing too many creatures and lack elimination. You have access to white so why no Swords to Plowshares or Path to Exile? Fiery Temper should be in there as well as some red artifact removal, say Shattering Spree, Shattering Pulse, or Pillage, DEmolish etc. Also a few more Mana racks - Ravnica signets are cheap and useful. If Zurgo is your commander make more use of him with cards like Worldslayer, and evasion equipments. Creature aggro decks do not usually win a ;lot of group EDH games without having a real tight focus, or alternate tricks. Some other Hellbent cards I have used sucessfully are Gathan Raders,Tombstalker, Reckless Wurm and Nihilith. Also if you like short games and living dangerously play Havoc Festival which combos nicely with Gibbering Decent. Also a few cheap tutors would be useful. Have fun, I hope some of my comments are helpful.
You are missing one of Zur's best weapons - Necropotence, use life as an asset to draw cards to protect Zur and win in short order
I have played a Relentless rats EDH deck with Marrow-Gnawer as commander for about 2 yrs now and he is definitely the best choice as general, and competitive in multi-player formats. You have covered most of the bases , but there are few cards you could add for more consistency. Cabal Coffers and Sol Ring - mono black staples. Brainspoil and, Beseech the Queen to tutor for Thrumming Stone. Necropotence, Greed or Phyrexian Arena for card draw. Patriarch's Bidding and Elixir of Immortatity for recovery from board wipe. Also useful are Whispersilk cloak, Loxodon Warhammer, Swiftfoot Boots or Lightning Greaves, and lastly Grave Pact, Syphon Mind and Crystal Ball. My deck only plays 35 rats so I have room for all of this toolbox flavor. Good luck with your deck. Rats often rule the field. Currently playing Grenzo Dungeon Master in EDH.
I have always enjoyed playing Turbo Fog decks in casual settings and currently have a Tiny Leaders deck, (Jenara), and I find your deck interesting. and refreshing. You do not seem to have any answers to Discard and Bounce strategies, but Mill and Smallpox decks might not appear that often in the Modern Format. Ethereal Haze, Pollen Lullaby, and Dawn Charm may fit. Also if you every decide to add Blue - Sphinx's Revelation and Overrule would be helpful. Keep up the fresh ideas.
Lure might be of benefit to this deck, but might also just be a "win more" card. Nice use of bad cards....
Nice selection of Eldrazi finishers, but the deck seems way too top heavy. I put together a similar deck using the small Eldrazi blue fliers and Blinding Drone to hold the fort until the big boys hit. Walker of the Wastes seems like it should be in there also, and use bounce and elimination spells over countering. Will try my deck in a week or so and see how it fares at FNM and casual play.
Nice attempt at Hedron for the win deck. Playing 4 Jace makes it a bit expensive to play as a casual deck. Why Salvage Drone - maybe a big butt chump blocker or token maker might be a better stall tactic.
You can add Isochron Scepter if you are playing Orim's Chant which was an old separate blue/white deck - Scepter Chant. Holistic Wisdom also helps to get back nneded instants in a pinch. Maybe add an Elilix of Immortality for life gain. My old Turbo-Fog Deck usually won about 60 % of the time with Combo being our greatest problem. Luminarch Ascension is probably the best alternate kill.
Up Shamen of the Hunt and Beast Caller Savant to 4 each. The deck is probably stronger if you cut the white.
I think your deck would be more effective with less creatures and more enchantments. O-ring, Ghostly prison and especially Flickering Ward to abuse Daxos and make large tokens. My Daxos deck emphasises tokens, anthem effects and board wipes. If you have the budget add a Serra's Sanctum for large amounts of quick mana.
Tangle and Crucible should be more help to you than the Top since you only have Terrimorphic Expanse to rearrange yor deck. I always liked TurboFog as adeck type and played about three different variations in Legacy Tourneys around thre time of Onslaught. Happy Fogging.
Your deck seems to be too late game oriented. The 1 and 2 drop land fall creatures are better and add speed to the deck, without adding the expense of the fetchlands and Atarka's Command. Drop the Outcast and the Stonewaker and add Snapping Garlid, Scythe Tiger, Makindi Slide runner and the red Retreat ( better than the green one). Prowess creatures also help if you want a speed aggro approach.Landfall is a fun and effective deck, especially in the draft format.
Add a little card draw or tutoring. Diabolic Edict, Read the Bones, Phyrexian Arena etc. Nice idea
Try Haunted Crossroads if you are doing Myr Retriever tricks. Cranial Plating is still a must in this type of desk and Myr Enforcer is not good without Ornithopters, Signal Pests etc.
Kor Whirlblade is to good to leave out as is Lantern Scout. Drop the Retreat to Hagra and the Bloodbond Vampire (2) for a quicker deck.
Isochron sScepter might help our deck as you have 12 possible imprints already and can choose either side of a split card.
.I started working on a similar deck yesterday. Evolutionary Leap seems redundant as a 4 of. I was thinking of using Silent Skimmer, Swarm Surge, and Skitterskin in the deck with Bane of Bala Ged, Marusa Ranger or Deathless Behemoth as a finisher. Seek the Wilds is another consideration and Complete Disregard and Ruinous Path as Sideboard or Maindeck removal. Nice Deck.
