Casual deck idea for standard. Work around Simic Manipulator's "need for constant evolving" by making his victims weaker. Akroan Horse provides a consistent colourless source of 1/1s to reactivate his evolve as well as chump block.

Currently set to have strictly cards I own. Would that I could I'd have more Cyclonic Rifts and AEtherling over Phantom, but I am poor and Irish.

Are there any other one-drop control options you would recommend over Sensory Deprivation? Rapid Hybridization looks usable to deal with all the triggered abilities running around, but it isn't as good against the aggro that otherwise hinders my gameplan.
