Optimator I see what you mean about Quest for Ula's Temple it does seem to be rather a pain to hit the required number of creatures. Omniscience is in there for the free casting of spells and freeing up of mana but after looking at the cards I notice theres not many cards that rely on free floating mana. Scourge of Fleets I read wrong. I read it as "return each creature (not just your opponent) to their owners hand" this is what happens when you build decks at 1:00 in the morning. I've never had much luck with Tromokratis but I see why you're recommending to remove Deep-Sea Terror and Hammerhead Shark as one requires cards in the graveyard and the other is not very useful.

Quest for Ula's Temple is not going to be worth the slot with so few creatures triggering it. Even with some top-deck manipulation or proliferate/counter stuff it might not cut it. I've definitely won games with it but it's rare that it pops off. I like it in my current deck but it has a double-use as devotion for Thassa. I used to have it in a fairly creature-focused Braids, Conjurer Adept deck and it never really seemed to pull it's weight. Minus-points for not working on whales and squid, which a few of the better fatties happen to be.

Cyclonic Rift and Wash Out are two staples you shouldn't be without. Maybe drop Omniscience and a counterspell.

Scourge of Fleets and Tromokratis are amazing; run them. Drop Deep-Sea Terror and Hammerhead Shark.

Not necessarily, but I definitely prefer the casting cost; is just not mana I can reliably produce. Plus, the Hammerhead Shark doesn't die to my own Pyroclasms.

Do you prefer the 2/3 body on Hammerhead Shark, over the 4/1 body of Dandan?
