replaced 2 doubling seasons with Illusionist's Bracers. Equally effective, and drops deck price by $20
2 doubling seasons added to sideboard
4 quillspikes added to sideboard

I'd love to run Biomancer, but he's pretty expensive ($$). I'd like to keep Kraj as the win condition.

If $$ wasn't an issue, I'd run 4 gaea's cradle, 4 biomancers, and 4 force of wills...

... 9 over powered cards printed very early in MTG... they are as follows
"Mox" cards {0} artifacts that tap for colored mana (1-5)
"Black Lotus". {0} artifact. tap sac add 3 mana of any color to your manapool (6)
"Time walk". {1U} take another turn(7)
"Time twister" {2U} each player shuffles their hand and graveyard into their library and draws 7 (8)
"Ancestral Recall" {U} target player draws 3 (9)
They are widely regarded to be the 9 most efficient cards in the game and each one is worth thousands of dollars.

Modification of Loyalty is not necessary to use loyalty abilities. The only thing a permanent needs in order to use loyalty abilities is loyalty counters. On a planeswalker this would change loyalty. It doesn't on a creature, because a creature has no Loyalty. Loyalty and loyalty counters are distinct and different. Loyalty is a "measurement" that only planeswalkers use. It determines 2 things:

How many loyalty counters Planeswalkers enter with 306.5a and 306.5b
What happens when a Planeswalker has 0 loyalty (I.E. no counters) 306.8 306.9

Permanents with Loyalty abilities and Loyalty counters on them can use loyalty abilities. they just aren't subject to the rules of their "Loyalty being reduced to 0 from lack of loyalty counters"

Think of Loyalty as a Planeswalker's version of toughness, and it should help. (IE: Only creatures have toughness, but they're not the only thing that can be dealt damage)

MTG rule 602.2 (What is a Loyalty ability and what cards use 'em)
"An activated ability with a loyalty symbol in its cost is a loyalty ability. Normally, only
planeswalkers have loyalty abilities."
Loyalty abilities are a variety of Activated Ability. Sometimes, Non-Planeswalkers can use Loyalty abilities. (Lattice+March=Planeswalker is now a creature. Quicksilver Elemental plz...)

MTG 110.1 (Defining Permanents)
"A permanent is a card or token on the battlefield. A permanent remains on the battlefield
indefinitely. A card or token becomes a permanent as it enters the battlefield and it stops being a
permanent as it‘s moved to another zone by an effect or rule."
Lattice turns permanents into artifacts. things not on the battlefield aren't permanents. Lattice does not turn things which are not on the field into artifacts. Much to my sadness, Planeswalkers on op of libraries are not permanents, and therefore not artifacts. (sorry skill borrower)
