    I talked to my buddy from work that's really knowledgable about the format and what's popular currently and he helped me come up with this list. I'll be playtesting with people from work in the coming weeks once I get/proxy the rest of the cards I need

    Couple things: the legendary doesn't break the game open for you but having two in hand sucks, I'd drop it to two.  You've got 4 Windswepts but only 3 basics.  I know the chances of pulling a dead fetch is slim, but cmon.  You have -no- way of turn 1 thoughtsieze, which is where the magic happens.  I aaaaalmost think I like return to the ranks better than tasigar, and up warden to 4.  I see it like this: the only reason tasigur is worth it is if you are recovering from boardwipe or locked in a state you can't get out of and need the card advantage.  You've enough removal and more removal on the side, so recovery is the goal.  If someone wipes you can still pay 6 mana and pull everything you'd want back out.  Tasigur seems slow by comparison.  But he is also expensive as shit so there is a reason for that.

      Also get in the habit of casting creatures on second main phase every time.  Every time.  If you switch from first main phase then stop your opponent will know the combat trick is happening.

        do you think Athreos, god of passage would be a good card to add here too?

          I've never killed anyone from it, and your bros don't have haste to keep the pressure like I'd like, but I'll fart around a bit and see how it feels.  I do like the idea of pushing the curve down.  Rakshada -> Athreos -> Siege Rhino sure would be annoying.

      If I turn one Urborg, tomb of yawgmoth, that's a turn 1 thoughtseize
