So before everyone tells me im a bad magic player I am going to explain my reasoning for this, and to be 100% honest if i went in a tournament right now I would expect to do very well with this deck. First of all I would like to point out the chandra. She has done three things for me quite well copied green sun's zenith for 2 primeval titans (yes 4 land drop triggers) and control cant counter both, copy 2 red sun's zenith for 2x at least 10 damage and lethal funness and worst case, copied rampant growth which allowed me to have like 8 available land turn 4.....
Valakut was always a good deck but if the valakut combo didnt come out they had to rely on avenger or other things like that. Not to mention one game I had overgrown battlement out and copied green sun;s zenith to get 2 more and have 9 available mana.... also garruk provides valakut with the card draw it never had and allows me to find my primeval titan or even draw orr the primeval.
I have been play testing this version and its fuckin beast.... its 5-1 against the old valakut itself solely based on the fact it cant deal with the advantage of stupid ramp like i can, not to mention i was able to remove their primeval titan with red sun cuttin them off to only 1 trigger.
