I was thinking of making a bant deck with Kor Skyfisher and Nulltread Gargantuan that can bounce back it's own guys with enter the battlefield abilities as a CA engine.
So far I have come up with running Khalni Garden to negate the sideeffect of nulltread and skyfisher, and Stoneforge Mystic and Elvish Visionary as bounce targets.
the problem with nulltread is that it's hard to get CA from him as he screws your draw, so the only creatures that you could create CA engines from would be stuff that draws 2 or more cards, or cards that let you play the top card of your library (unfortunately nothing useful like that exists right now). However, he is pretty good with treasure hunt, as it will negate his disadvantage (and it's on color!).
How about Bloodbraid Elf? It seems like the best thing one could possibly bounce with Nulltread Gargantuan, and it even cascades into it (though it doesn't bounce itself in that case, unfortunately).
The problem with Nulltread Gargantuan is that the top of the deck is usually a huge tempo hit, whereas Kor Skyfisher is often much less so (and its effect is usually beneficial in the decks that play it).
Things with cascade or card draw, landfall triggers or CIP effects are usually the best targets for Skyfisher, and nulltread. Like [CARD]acidic slime

So try to find creatures that have useful CA generating effects Seige-gang commander, Bloodbraid sound good if you go with GUR OR
You could just run boros bushwhacker, and use the skyfisher to pick up lands just so you can drop them again for the landfall effects.
It's really fun to play this with Quest for Ula's Temple. It guarantees a counter for your quest, and can generate more counters (if it's, say, a Sage Owl or something).

Sarkhan Vol + Skyfisher or Nulltread. Mark of Mutiny works in a pinch. I've been using this odd combo for quite some time, and they have a lot of good stand-alone use. Another consideration is Elvish Visionary.
Then have him eat Nicol Bolas and the Magic universe can be awesome again. He takes over the Infinite Consortium and turns it into a trans-multiverse Izzet League. His agents scour the multiverse in Venser's planeships looking for magic to learn, technology to improve upon, and less intelligent people to condescend to.
Bouncing tokens to your deck = pure win. Thus, Khalni Garden.

I cannot believe we have yet to say allies, any ally with a come onto the battlefield ability... I hear that they like coming back into play...
i don't think kor skyfisher and nulltread gargantuan will be good in an ally deck. now, having said that, i think that turntimber ranger will be your best bet if you want to run allies with those cards.

Please explain why a card is good, because just naming it is considered spam.
Sorry about that...

I love playing decks that run BBB and UG at the same time. I've never even been mana screwed.
