This is a deck that I have yet to play but am fairly happy with thus far as a prototype. It's been a work in progress since I decided to drop a few of my tri-colour decks down to bi-colour, and from the remnants of the R/W/B precon came this.
The deck's themes are basically a mix of efficient creatures to bog down my crew's usual creature heavy meta, a pile of removal to keep others from getting out of hand, and sub themes of lifegain (to keep me going in case I draw too much ire) and equipment (the Kaldra trio act as a win condition or simply a very, very cheap sac outlet for Vish Kal).
I may put a Cabal Coffers in to potentially take advantage of Urborg, but with only 9 black creatures in the deck (aside from the Commander that is) I don't think I'll bother with a Crypt of Agadeem.
Notes: while I have a reasonable collection and finances enough to buy fairly regularly from online and local stores, anything beyond ~$5 is probably out of my price range for the time being (I don't mind paying for quality, but as I try to pay off my credit card by the end of the year I'm trying to keep my singles purchases reasonable). My casual group doesn't use the banned list, but nobody has gotten out of hand about it.
You might have a look at the Vish deck in my sig. There's a section after the decklist with explainations of a lot of interactions/combos that might give you some ideas. There's a similar section in my Ghost Council list that has even more stuff in color/theme.
Heh, a Dreadnought is out of my price range for the time being, but I would like to snag one to abuse in this deck.
I've looked at your deck list, and like a lot of the interactions I see. I have some cards coming to me in the mail now that will lead to changes within the deck soon, including an Angelic Renewal, which might just prompt me to move my Sun Titan over to this deck and look into further ways to abuse it (Altar, etc).
