Awesome concept and very well-executed. Gaze of Granite could be great in here, flavorfully and in function. If only Stone-Cold Basilisk weren't an un-card. So much flavor.
I like this! Very heavy on the snaky theme. How well does it perform?
It does pretty well against creature decks. No one wants to attack into deathtouch. I spend the beginning of the game dropping some snakes and ramping. Once everyone is just about out of gas, I drop Damia, reload my hand, and hope to draw Seshiro the Anointed. As more gorgons come out though, I'm removing snakes, so it will be interesting to see how this strategy shifts. Hopefully, Pharika will some interesting flavor (along with an awesome weapon).

Gaze of Granite has saved me many times, especially when I quickened it with Leyline of Anticipation and Alchemist's Refuge. Stone-Cold Basilisk is fun find. I'll add it to the deck, even if it's not technically legal.
