Simic Counters 1.0 - Cheaper Version (Standard)

This is an alternate version of my previous Simic Counters deck, this time removing the shock lands and jadelight rangers to make the deck significantly cheaper.

This is still a WiP. Things like Applied Biomancy and Stony Strength will have room made for them most likely once they're on deckstats.

I've tested this version of the deck on untap against Esper, Temur ramp, Mono-Red Goblins and Red/Green Stompy. So far across these matchups, the deck is 8-2.

There are several combos within the deck; Growth-Chamber Guardian + Biomancer's Familiar is a solid option for getting lots of 4/4s early for very little mana.

Incubation Druid facilitates earlier Sharktocrab and Biogenic Ooze.

Merfolk Branchwalker is there as a solid creatures and also exploring into either more land or finding something you need. Also has counters potentially for Trollbred Guardian.

This deck doesn't need much ramp compared to some other Simic builds, as with this you can make do with 3-4 using Biomancer's Familiar and Growth-Chamber Guardian. So you can afford to wait to get the Biogenic Ooze and Trollbred Guardian out.

The deck so far struggles a bit in terms of removal, instead it needs to use Sharktocrab's ability and Titanic Brawl.

Trollbred guardian, I am unsure of because I haven't drawn it once yet before drawing Biogenic Ooze, but in theory, it should be good.
