There are a lot of sweepers in this format - I wouldn't want to get screwed over by Slagstorm or a topdecked Terminus. I like the Dawntreader Elk and Solemn for the deck. I also really like Caravan Vigil, after you sac the Elk. Any good draw mechanisms we can use?
I suggest a straightforward ramp deck mainly G/W. For the next 3 months we have access to both Day of judgment and Planar Cleansing, effectively being able to keep the field clean forever.
Planar Cleansings pretty bad in your deck unless your plan is to win by getting 10+ actual lands into play.
I tried working with druids repository because it has more potential for faster opening of the door, but ended up taking out all my good spells for not quite as good creatures and kept getting screwed with not hitting the repository. Too dependent on one card to run a deck that's dependent on one card
As for the semi working one above, it's doing ok as long as I get a rites somewhere, or else I run out of steam mid-game. Also I tried to stay away from things rotating out (made an exception for BoP and rites) so keep in mind when offering criticism.
The next thing I am getting is 4 Woodland Cemetery to replace 2 Forests and 2 Swamps. I thought the Vessels would be better than Sphere of the Suns because of the ability to return a card that might be needed during going off on the Surge and I also put in a full complement of Titans as a secondary win-con with the Demons if need be. Spine is to remove a Witchbane Orb if they have one. I cannot for the life of me come up with a sideboard though as anything I side in just takes away from the combo. Ideas anyone??? Thanks!! BTW, went 1-3 at last weeks FNM with an overall game record of 3-6. Not too shabby...lol

i like this deck, the only thing i would do is add more mana ploppers such as llanowar elves or avacyn's pilgrim. i feel like getting that first turn mana grabber is gonna make a HUGE difference.

I will try Llanowar Elves in place of the Borderline Ranger as I think that is the one card that can get cut. I tried Abundant Growth in its place last night in a goldfish bowl, but I kept drawing good cards off of the surge...lol

Went with Elves in place of Rangers and went 2-2 with a 4 out of 9 record. I like the direction this is heading...lol Sidenote, my sideboard was 15 Mountains and I shuffled the whole thing in and took it out after each game. Definitely threw one opponent for a loop...lol Any more suggestions???

So I am giving this one more go this Friday and then taking it apart to get value for my Titans before they rotate out. Not much I can change at this time other than maybe a transformational sideboard in to Ramp. I have to admit it is a lot of fun though! BTW, got the Cemetaries and they do help out, but I wouldn't want to drop too many more basic lands.
