A really strong deck. Could easily go 3-0 if the mana was more stable - all it's really missing is some borderposts and it would be excellent.
ROUND ONE:
I win despite my opponent playing a turn four Thornling on the play (off a Trace of Abundance I probably should have cut). My start was turn two Outlander, into Stormblade, Sludge Strider and then Alchemist turn 5 bouncing his Behemoth. Thopter Foundry and Strudge Strider combo finishes him off turn 6.
next game I mull into a decent hand with turn two Sculptor, turn three Mechanist, with Commorants and other good cards in hand - however, he has turn two Trace into Knotvine mana guy, into Battlegrace Angel and Squire on turn four. I can't find my removal, and can't race the life gain.
game three I mull a hand with three plains and no white spells into a hand with two swamps, capsule, and unstable frontier. he curves out from turn one Squire through Sureblade all the way up to Ridge Rannet and Sigiled Behemoth (Trace again about turn three) while I can't find land #4 and can't play my Gargoyle to return the capsule I used on his Sureblade.
booooo.
