I would be careful with the Primal Surge, for it will mill you...

I disagree about putting in blue, {U}{B} infect is done to death but if you like green there are some really underrated cards for green infect, Rot Wolf Spinebiter Putrefax Viridian Corrupter Tangle Angler Glistener elf and a very good finisher with the Swarmlord is Plaguemaw Beast another thing to consider is some green creature pump if they don't block your creature and then you Giant Growth it that could end the game or else put in 1-2 overruns because they're a win condition when used with the Swarmlord.

I agree with the Contagion Engine and clasp, they're staples in infect decks, also try out Tezzeret's Gambit you don't even need blue to play it, paying 2 life to pick up 2 cards and proliferate is usually worthwhile and if you go blue I would recommend using it over Steady Progress I run a 3 color infect deck and I have never had a time where I was happier to draw Steady Progress than Tezzeret's Gambit.

If you do go blue all of the cards TyWooOneTime mentioned are good ideas accept Shape Anew, shape anew decks need to have artifact producing cards to really be worthwhile, if you sac something to shape anew you're currently sitting at a 50% chance to pull the blightsteel and 50% to get another web, these are good odds, but I think it's more worthwhile to put in a few Clasps and Engines and if you put in 2 of each, now you're very unlikely to draw what you want and could be saccing an engine to pull a clasp, not really what you want.

I actually really like UG infect. Distortion Strike was great back in Zendikar block. Tossing in a couple Ichorclaw myrs isn't a bad idea either. I liked the beef for blocking, which deters them from doing so making easy hits. Adding a little buff, like Mutagenic Growth and Mirran Nettle(if you run artifacts)(Titanic growth maybe). Blighted agent + Ranger's guile is good.

If you sell off all the expensive cards on eBay or here, you will get a decent return, but the cheap cards in bulk will sell for 1/2 or so.

@rfioren Would Craterhoof Behemoth be decent in the deck?
(maybe just as a sideboard card to wish for)

I think I have one... But unless you have another trade to stack on it, it's not worth it.

My notable haves:
1x Foil Unhinged Swamp
1x Unhinged Island
Decent amounts of Zend lands(no foils)

1x Temporal Mastery
1x Path to Exile

I'm looking to make this deck IRL: http://deckbox.org/sets/192602

My list in order of importance:
1x Gaea's Cradle
2x Glimpse of Nature
2x Summoner's Pact
1x Living Wish

Cards I need after I get the Wish:
1x Gaea's Cradle
1x Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre

Here's my profile, and have at it! http://deckbox.org/users/tails616

PS: Feel free to look through my casual EDH decks, you might find something I'm willing to part with.
PPS: Not much in the Planeswalker deck is for trade...
PPPS: If you REALLY want my Oona, I might part... But she has a special place in my heart, as she was my first "expensive" card I bought with cash and as a single.
PPPPS: If you trade something that creates tokens, I'm fully willing to toss in the tokens it generates if I have them, which is the case for most of my cards.

omg my friends cracked 11 mythics in an Avacyn restored box yesterday including a foil Tamiyo.

Mine had Misthollow griffin, Malignus and primal surge....  :'(

I feel your pain... My AVR box had Griselbrand, Sigarda, Primal Surge, Misthollow Griffin and Malignus...
Sure, Grisel and Sigarda were NICE... But utterly useless to me after the Griselbrand ban in EDH

EDIT: Pertaining to the original post, my close friend opened 8 mythics in his AVR box... Needless to say, I was jealous.

He's actually on his way home right now. He should be on within the hour. He seemed ecstatic about the trade, so I would expect a foil snap in your possession in the near future.

One of my friends has a Snapcaster, his username is Hamstersar.

This is just me talking off of my knowledge of his trades:
He will probably want:
1x Jin-gitaxias
1x Tamiyo
4x Isolated Chapel
(If that's cool with you to trade down a bit)

EDIT: He's really attached to it, but he has a foil unhinged plains as well. That you will have to talk to him

Thanks for the idea, Rfioren. I'm probably going to switch out one for a crop rotation!

EDIT: Wow! Living Wish is also a really nice pick, if I end up making a sideboard.

EDIT2: That thread had a lot of nice information. I might try putting my elvish archdruid in for a Priest, just to try it out when I finish all the trading. Also, never thought of using GSZ for the dryad arbor... Though, I think I have a good list here. The maindeck was changed a little, tossed in a Crop Rotation, concordant crossroads and living wish.
