Deck discussion for Rat Attack Tat

IMHO drop the Cover of Darkness x2. Your deck is about swarming. Add in 4x Swarmyard and take out 6 swamps. This leaves open 4 slots to play around with for now. Here are my questions:

Would Null Profusion and Thrumming Stone work well together? Play a rat and ripple 4 more then draw 5 cards. Play one ripple 4 more then draw 5 cards.

Also, is ripple considered casting a spell or not? If it is - then Door of Destinies could be sick.

Null Profusion would work very very well, yes. However, since we were fooling around with this i decided to reread thrummingstone...and if i read it right then i should be able to put my entire rat army out into play (or close to it) by hardcasting 1 of them with a stone in play. Reread it and see if you come to the same conclusion.

See, that was my question. I don't think that is how it works. What's your train of thought on it? Also - you are going to ripple into lands. That could prove problematic at times.

Thrummingstone reads:

"Whenever you PLAY or spell, you may reveal the top four cards of your library. You may PLAY any revealed cards with the same name as the spell without paying their mana costs. Put the rest on the bottom of your library."

So what that means to me is this:

Play Rat -> Reavel: Rat (1), Mana, Mana, Rat (2)
Play Rat (1) -> Reavel: Mana, Mana, Mana, Thrummingstone
Play Rat (2) -> Reavel: Rat (3) , Rat (4), Rat (5), Mana
Play Rat (3) -> Reavel: Rat (6), Mana, Mana, Dark Ritual
Play Rat (4) -> Reavel: Mana, Mana, Mana, Mana
Play Rat (5) -> Reveal Mana, Dark Ritual, Mana, Thrummingstone
Play Rat (6) -> etc, etc, etc, etc

The way I had originally thought this worked was that I had to hard cast a spell out of my hand to ripple off of it...and i really don't think thats correct at all.
