i like the ideal of the sage of epityr. I was thinking about the trinkets before i posted the list for the card advantage and how many options u have with 1 mana artifacts.
but kewl thanks for the advice, i think wizards could be a strong archetype that could hang with there peers if we could get the cards and numbers right
I actually saw those, but I thought their effects were too weak. This deck doesn't need a huge wizard like Nameless One or a fairly weak combo with Telepathic Spies. Cosi's Trickster is good though, and I like sage of fables.
I'd probably base the deck around Patron Wizard, Thalakos Seer, Meddling Mage, Cursecatcher and voidmage prodigy. Not necessarily all as 4 of's, and with Sower, Vendilion Clique and a few others in there as 2 ofs, but that would be my personal core.
You also want to run some equipment, maybe a couple Jitte's and a Sword of Fire and Ice or two.
I think that Magus of the Tabernacle would be good in here as it would give you both a good body and some board control. The down side being that he hurts with bob.
It just seems more cute than practical to me. What decks are you really hurting more than yourself? This deck has a bunch of weenies, so it needs numbers. Most other decks have better creatures or don't need creatures.
Yeah, Magus of the Tabernacle hurts Patron Wizard and Voidmage Prodigy, however, I've been sideboarding Magus of the Disk for a sweeper and considered using Magus of the Moat as well to combine with Aven Mimeomancer.

I was thinking maybe to splash white in there to replace the stonybrooks for meddling mages and replacing the sage's dousing for some other counters.

I like Turtles
Aven Mimeomancer gives you a flying army, Sower of Temptation will steal a Tarmogoyf, you can attack with your 1/1 and 2/2 creatures, etc.
November Mike, there's also Sage of Fables, Information Dealer, Nameless One, Fatespinner, Telepathic Spies (to go with Meddling Mage), Cosi's Trickster, the Maguses, and Puresight Merrow.

I'd like some bounce too. Echoing truth, maybe.
