When I posted earlier about this I was just starting to run 2x Oracle of Mul Daya and so far I have to say I do not regret this decision in the least.  It is a straight up magnet for destroy , lol.  Which is fine, that is less destroy for others and even if all I did was throw down one extra land after casting it I just got ahead in the land game.  I have to reiterate using Asceticism here.  Something like Pacifism or Narcolepsy are also pretty much useless against her (generally she is not attacking or blocking anyway).

I would definitely like to hear what others think of Oracle of Mul Daya as well.

I love it, I hear people say that it doesn't fit the deck style but after running them I don't see them getting removed. The top decking you get is amazing. Save an Evolving Wilds on the field and if you see something you don't like activate it and shuffle your deck for a better draw. Yes, after a few turns the Orcle will most certainly eat a removal.

Wow, that shuffle trick is awesome. I'll be using that, for sure!

Lol, ya, I did that the other night.  Due to the buggy nature of DotP it caused my opponent to quit because he had zoomed in on the card at the top of my library (obviously I was unaware) but I used Evolving Wilds and the card he was zoomed in on got stuck on his screen all zoomed in and he could barely play.  I had this happen to me before as well, I don't think it was this exact scenario, but it was tough to try and keep playing with a stuck zoomed in card on your screen.

Of course I am not running this card for rare bug purposes, lol.  I do like the Evovling Wilds "trick" with Oracle of Mul Daya though. ;P

He must've been a rookie, because after playing this game enough, I know what all the cards are with just a cursory glance at the artwork. Of course building and playing every deck in the game consistently helps with this.

On a related note, I actually had to pause the timer last week because I didn't recognize the card my opponent played! I totally forgot that Archangel was in the PK deck! I think it was the first time I ever saw that card hit the table.

I love this deck because it has so many good solid different builds.  I think the only thing I would suggest here is maybe a couple less of the 3 cmc land fetchers.  Perhaps for a 3rd Troll Ascetic .  I also think if you run Sewer Nemesis then it is almost a crime not to run Vulturous Zombie .  I also notice you have no Mind Rot .  It is truly a devastating card.  I also really like the Oracle of Mul Daya .   Asceticism is also a game winning card unless dealt with very quickly (which is not easily done with a lot of decks).  I recently went with a "Hexproof Regeneration" build that is really fun so far.  I also love the pure sacrifice builds.

I guess I will reply to this earlier post. lol I don't personally like the Vulturous Zombie because its too dependant on other cards to help it pump. If you are behind and you top deck this then it won't help much on the other hand Sewer Nemesis , Spiritmonger , Mortivore and Lord of Extinction can all usually drop and be a threat ( Mortivore being hit or miss). On the other hand, Vulturous Zombie with a turbo mill partner is VERY scary.
