I felt like cutting Snapcaster and Ponder would be best.I've thought about Runed Halo but havn't tried it out yet.In a game I had recently Mana Web worked wonders though, so I'm hesitant to cut it from the SB. More often that not people completely forget about the trigger, I guess because it's such an unusual card for this format and they seem to forget about it from time to time. In control at least, it can make the matchup a bit easier.Same with Crucible, it's too good against any deck packing Wasteland.I almost want to add in a Path to Exile somewhere to make Maverick matchups easier, but I don't know where yet..

Sower was a decent 4 drop for Counterbalance, and could fight against Emrakul and other fatties.Sadly this deck is not as viable anymore, as Miracles have replaced it, but you're welcome to check my current list for that!
Hahaha I appreciate the Dr. Strangelove reference. Looks fun dude.
I used to play something really similar to this in casual a few years ago, then i took it apart cuz my friends wouldn't let me play with it anymore; still, it's a ton of fun. Fastbond = BROKEN
Or... Regal Force. Big creature and lots of card draw with him.
You could maybe add Glimpse of Nature as a long shot or a desperate draw spell, but that's an extremely hypothetical suggestion considering your high curve. Heck maybe even jayameade tome could help if you wanted :P (spelled wrong clearly) Also thanks for the suggestions on my deck!
I like Amulet of Vigor since most of my lands come in tapped, and i feel like getting set back a turn might be harmful due to that. I can easily cut out invincible hymn for consecrated sphinx though, thanks for the help! Anything else i could take out for wrath?
You know that if you play all is dust you lose a ton of stuff right?
Looks good, maybe add a sol ring and a demonic tutor to make life a bit easier.
Never thought about splashing red for rite of flame and empty the warrens, pretty cool as a back up in case tendrils doesn't happen... I'm assuming I got that right? I would run one copy of ill-gotten gains just in case you lose ad nauseum, a tip from personal experience with storm.
This looks awesome dude, maybe add a few more creatures since it seems to be mainly creature based?
I have a wrath and a blue sun I can put in, and consecrated sphinx would be sweet, but I don't know what I can take out for them. Any suggestions?
Also mind explaining how you keep card advantage? From a brief look at the list it doesn't seem like you get a lot of draw, but you know your deck a lot better than I do!
This looks like a lot of fun to play! I'm assuming you always try and play Azusa on turn 3 at the minimum to get a good mana ramp? Seems really solid. Mind looking at my EDH? Just started Commander a few days ago...http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=291323
And with crucible and Zuran orb out, perhaps I could find room for glacial chasm?
You have lots of bounce and destruction and in many cases that's enough to let you win. Maybe add more draw from preordain and brainstorm to make it easier the deck thin. I'm kind of taking it from my deck, but you might need more land... you could add more islands and run soldevi excavations, since it would let you dig a bit faster.
Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it. I tried Moorland Haunts but I don't really want to get rid of creatures from my graveyard since I can bring a lot back. Once I get my other tundra I can switch out meteor crater, and hallowed fountain would be nice, I guess switching out coastal tower. I've been able to get the Amulet of Vigor out in every game so far, but it would be nice to not NEED it all the time. Crystal Ball seems awesome actually. I think I could also use parallel thoughts as a tutor spell to find stuff, and find a place for brainstorm to draw the pile before parallel thoughts can be destroyed. That way I can find anything useful when parallel thoughts is in my hand. Thoughts?
I think you're missing 9 cards in your sideboard Hahaha. Honestly though it looks good. I would get some Darkslicks to vary the manabase a bit.
I played a deck similar to this one 2 days ago, I like it! You have 2 ponders. Take one out and replace it with Snapcaster Mage so you can reuse some of your spells. Nice deck! Care to look at my EDH deck? I could use the advice since i just started in Commander. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=291323
took out gitaxian probe. I already have a lot of draw and i never know when 2 life may come back to haunt me
