Hello, been playing with Vannifar on MTGA and I find it not op but very entertaining.
From my observation, this deck is very good at grinding (grinded through 5 hydroid krasis in one game), therefore I am more focusing on the early game like the old GB Midrange.
My list is below (sorry, don't know how to highlight the cards)
Impulse over Incubation
I like it because it lets me shave one land, fix the mana and act as a silver bullet search in late game
Midnight Reaper
I am slowly starting do dislike this guy in maindeck. Many times I Vannifar'd him as I did not want to keep loosing life. With Vannifar in play, I can gain so much advantage that he was more hurting me than opponent.
Tatyova
Really recommend to test her as I am super impressed. She dodges Cast down, draws cards and gains life
Tendershoot Dryad over the Ooze
I like Dryad more as she keeps generating tokens without any mana spent. if unchecked, it ends the game pretty fast.
Kraul Foragers
I dont like it much but its only for mono red.
Plague Mare
Wiping out elves, viashino pyromancers, healers hawks and Judith tokens deck is gas.
Overall I use 1-4drops to control the board and my 5's and 6's ends the game. It's not rare to pod into Izoni and generate like 7-10 tokens and keep mana up.
