Basically just a casual deck which ramp and play Crucible with big creatures, ideas taken from the card Glorious Anthem. Broodmate Dragon is broken when coupled with spitting image. Especially w the Retrace mechanics. Am looking @ Conflux spoiler, Volcanic Fallout/Banefire/Malfegor seems like fun to me.
He is so man, he is mario, and I will tell my opponents such. As and when I bounce their permanent I will exclaim "MARIO" as though he were stomped on by our mighty Jace. Every time someone kill him I will give them 99 USD (not AUS!!!) because their lightning bolt should cost 100 DOLLARS...
Jace even made it into the Teenage Super Hero Mutant Ninja Hero Turtles.
maybe 2 sharken volin and 4 fertile groundout seen it sucks and also you have 1 artifact shown but 2 counted. liliana vess sided. the wickerbough elders out of side and naturalizes in the side. also +3 mind shatters in the side. also 4 firespouts and 4 infests. good idea but i would add some lower cost creatures cause this is a lot of mid and late game. try to make it faster.

Thanks for spotting the error, was deciding between 2 or 1 hammers and ended up deciding in putting it as a 1 of.
I have no love for Sarkhan Vol , he just doesn't fit well in this kind of mid aggro ramp deck.
Any suggestions on lower cost creatures ? It seems that only taurean mauler can make it but usually i would hit a turn 3 colossus or a turn 4 broodmate. So there really isn't any space for mauler.
Fertile Ground is gd for ramping and have great synergy with Garruk, i will try not to take it out unless otherwise needed.
I would agree with 3 firespouts (not 4) but can't find room for it, what do you suggest that i take out ? other than Fertile. Thinking of a 1 of Knollspine and add in a 3rd Firespout to the MD.

why not run 3 infest and 3 firespout? You can also probably cut Primal Command down to 2 or 3 and add 1 or 2 more rampant growth. Or drop one of each Primal Command and Crucible of Fire for the rampant growths.
I'd replace the mosswart bridges with Treetop Village too (personal preference. I can see how they would work pretty well in this deck).
Goats! Jacob van Lunen was right. If I had to choose between killing people with goats and eating ice cream, I'd definately pick killing people with goats.

I don't really like Rampant Growth that much though, i've tested 4 Fertile 4 Rampant and there are times where i kept drawing into lands/ramp spells which is something i wish to avoid.
3 Infest / 3 Firespout sounds good. The primals are there mainly for aggro decks which nets me life to stall the game further and tutor for a dragon. I would certainly try it out with 3 Primal 3 Rampant.
As for Treetop Villages vs Mosswort Bridge, although Treetop is much better but i'd like to give Mosswort Bridge a try.

is a shame that you can't run a way of popping up some lands into you hand, or a repeatable way of doing so. I'd consider looking at some of the multiland searchers coming in conflux that put them into you rhand for the spitting image. a broodmate popping off should be pretty darned good...or run a very radical build involving mostly critters/ramp with cards like civic wayfinder and gift of the gargantuan to quickly dig and ramp. I like the concept, though.

Thanks for the advice ! The main thing about this deck is how do i not let the opponent get too much card advantage during the first few turns and if i don't have the ramp spell how do i overturn the table ?

I like Mosswort Bridge as a 2-of, do you guys think i need more ? Liliana Vess is there for tutoring Spitting Image or Broodmate Dragon. Chameleon Colossus just stall/steal me games with Loxodon Warhammer or Crucible of Fire out.
Any ideas/suggestions to improve the deck list ? I know this deck cries when it see Thoughtseize ..
