With regards to UGx storm,

I've had really good results from running Future Sight/Magus of the Future in that deck. If you also include Summer Bloom (accelerant), you can really do some nutty things.

I would suggest moving Future Sight from the Crosis deck into the Storm deck, and add Magus for further redundancy.

Oracle of Mul Daya and Magus of the Future are indeed fragile; but if they stay in play they can easily be back breaking. There is not much risk to running either for the huge benefit they provide.

Sift is actually pretty decent if you're just discarding lands (similar to Compulsive in a sense, abeit 1 more mana).

Propaganda can also slow down attack decks, but it's probably better in the sideboard.

Revive is too narrow to get back cards that are good.

Hollistic Wisdom is a game winner with Mind's Desire, untap effect, or X powered draw spell.

The amount of card draw seems pretty good on the online list.  Can Prosperity work here? What about Cadaverous Bloom as a mana engine? (provides black mana for Tendrils too)?

Squandered Resources? Summer Bloom?

Wouldn't UG Storm be the deck for Hermit Druid ? While it is not a instant win, it is still t,g: get a land + make your recursion and flashback better. It would also be a (weak) lock with Constant mists.

Quiet Specualtion seems decent too in that deck. The deck would need 1 or 2 more flashback cards though I suppose ( think twice from Crosis or perhaps flash of insight from SB?).

If you expect agro but with fairly weak removel, wouldn't Preacher be a good idea in e.g. WW? The abillity to steal a creatures seems quite strong for agro (Since alot of your creatures are quite small the drawback of them chosing isn't that important, since whatever they chose would proberly be larger than your attackers anyway).

Vinelasher Kudzu seems quite good in your Rock deck. It seems a better fit for that deck than RG Stompy anyway - mainly because of 2 times as many fetches and Knights of the Reliquary and all the random find lands stuff. I do not think it would become larger than 2/2 or 3/3 most of the time anyway in Stompy.

I usually get to the conclusion that Night Soil is a better Necrogenesis . It might not make as many tokens but the 1 mana instead of 2 is usually very very important.

Tettered Peak seems quite good in the current version of Goblins. There are less 2 drops than 1 drops and Tettered Peak kind of lets you use a 1 drop as a 2 drop. It is also a better topdeck than most other lands. It isn't super if you actually DO hit a curve though.

What about exchanging Pact of Negation and Daze (Crosis <-> UW), so you can find a counter with Tolaria West - while them seeing it is not super, the fact that it is slightly hard to play around makes up for it.  Ancestral Visions and lands are not super in late game :/

Kagemaro, first to suffer is a decent finisher and/or wrath effect (utillity is quite nice).

Worship would seem like a classic sb card for WW or perhaps main depending on the expected number of agro decks. The abillity to have a 2 card auto win vs. gobbos (which seems like a obivious idea for both sides) isn't bad and they do usually have a problem even without a pro: red creature. Any other agro deck also seems to have a problem with it.

Better late then never... here I go.

I would actually look at decks that build themselves, decks that dont need the same cards like other decks in the format. I think a WB Life.dec variant might be viable since most of the keycards are cards that other decks do not want to run.

Of course there are always the cheap alternatives to some cards, not everyone can run Minds Eye but there is always underused stuff like Mask of Memory or Farsight Mask.
