Nissa, Steward of Elements

U/G Bounce deck with a Trusted Advisor engine.

I don't know a ton about legacy (it's just out of my price range), but would Rashmi, Eternities Crafter work well in this deck?

[Borg]

Rashmi certainly seems to fit in there, thanks Ladof.

Probably will take Momir Vig's spot. I like his synergy too but his cost is a little steep (5) and by the time he gets online he doesn't seem to be needed that much anymore. He feels like a "win more" card atm. I'll try both and see what comes of it.

I added Savannahs and Tundras ( Together with Noble Hierarch = 12 white sources ) to include Meddling Mage. With
Venser's ability to bounce any permanent and Nissa's ability to put him on the Battlefield for free and without casting him he could be a bomb in this deck.

First game with Rashmi and she immediately showed her value and synergy in this deck.
Had a fantastic turn go like this :
During upkeep, Trusted Advisor sends a Coiling Oracle back into my hand.
Nissa Scries 2 and reveals a land and a Noble Hierarch. I put both back with the Hierarch on top. I cast the Coiling Oracle again and Rashmi's ability triggers, revealing the Hierarch, which costs less than the Coiling Oracle and thus can be cast for free.
Then the Coiling Oracle resolves, I reveal the land that is now on top of my library and get that in play as well

Another thing I noted is that thanks to Nissa's scrying and the Coiling Oracle's ability to get extra land in play I may not need the Sapphire Medallion. Two extra land from the Oracle kind of equals things out already. So, I've put Momir back instead of the Medallion.

Meddling Mages have been a pain to the opposition.
I've been wanting to play them for years in the "right" deck for him. This may finally be it.
Thanks again for the excellent suggestion, Ladof
