I like the concept, but this deck is ironically too slow for the expanded meta. Since pretty much all decks outside of control/stall have an efficient energy acceleration engine, the two extra needed doesn't always pose that much of a threat, unless your opponent is running a super gimmicky set that has a set amount of energy needed and n the deck. But even then, it doesn't get very far. The crucial part of expanded is that you can't follow a rigid game plan to get what you need, and you have to be able to adapt to the many possible matchups using the wide variety of tools you have available. If you were to tweak this to be standard, it would be an interesting yet niche set, but expanded is definitely not the place for this archetype. Good idea, though!

Yeah I got the feeling it was too slow. Would it work as a kitchen table deck? I'll try retooling it for standard. Thanks for the advice!
