Megrim  speeds the process up, and once Memory Jar  hits with a Megrim on the table, it's lights out (or close to it.) This deck works fairly well, but could certainly use work. For instance, I'm sure I can take out a Megrim or two, add in a Dark Ritual  , etc. Hell, I could probably take out the Memory Jar Megrim combo all together, and add in more Hippies . Any thoughts? Any comments are welcome, and thanks in advance.

To me land destro and discard seem to not be very synergistic because why kill their lands when they have nothing to play. I think that those land destro cards can be replaced with discard. I would take out Megrim because instead of spending 3 to play something that has less effect late game, you could play another discard spell to keep their hand size down. More Hypnotic Specter Maybe Shimian Specter  Add Duress  Thoughtseize  if you can get it Maybe even Distress  Just my thoughts
For decks that I would like help with:
I would like to have discussions about card choices so almost all the cards aren't final. Usually I want to stick to the original deck idea unless it really sucks or something else.

Rack doesn't work with land destruction.

Hmm, I'll consider switching it to pure discard. Shimian Specter has a Lobotomy  effect? Nice. I'll have to pick some up. Maybe I'll split the deck into two, one land destruction and the other discard. Thanks!
