I noticed that you have 10 fetch lands there, and perhaps you could trade Terramorphic Expanse Buy with Shelldock Isle Buy, because it has more synergy with your other cards, and it fits the Mill theme of your deck. Furthermore, Taniwha Buy seems "weak" for actually making your lands phase out. Maybe another creature like Soratami Mindsweeper Buy could help you mill your opponent TWICE, for it has synergy with your Hedron Crab Buy through the Landfall ability. If you want a more aggressive monster, Geralf's Mindcrusher Buy is great both as an attacker and miller. Furthermore, it also has synergy with your bounce spells, if you choose to reuse its ETB ability.

You both seem to forget that phasing in doesn't trigger ETB effects (it doesn't count as 'entering the battlefield'), thus it won't trigger landfall. ----------------------------------------------------------- Favorite card: Eater of the Dead Buy Post your synergies here The Synergy Page Promote the Synergy section!

My thanks to those who replied, I had not known of the phasing not triggering enter the battlefield effects. I will have to go over the online magic rule book and brush up. I was thinking of adding either Tome Scour Buy or Vision Charm Buy I think charm has more versatility. I like the deck manipulation and card draw I have so far though, so I will have to check and see what I take out.
