I love me some Green and Taxes.

Do you think Voice of Resurgence from DGM will work well here?

[Sasky]

It is definitely worth testing, but I am not sure how much Voice is better than Tarmogoyf. I have actually cut goyf from my list in favor of more hate, as vanilla beaters are not too good.

I think Voice is good if UWR and Jund continue being strong, as it is seriously deficit against combo.

Edit: I might add that skylasher is actually a really good hatebear for this deck too.

[Yannaria]

Voice would be really good, at least as a sideboard card.

[Sasky]

Well, I have gotten my hands on a playset of those, time to see how they fare.

[Sasky]

I have updated the OP with the list I am playing.

It is pretty awesome.

Non-main Thalia? May I ask why?

[Sasky]

With the death of Eggs and Storm she has become next to useless. She also receives growth from Liege to a lesser extent than Gaddock. You can easily replace Gaddock with Thalia if you prefer though.

She is boarded in against new eggs and storm, as well as burn, tron, and gifts. These are pretty obscure decks except for Tron, which is already prepared for in the MD with Gaddock Teeg.
