This is my Vorosh deck, which is highly tuned for more competitive, multiplayer metas. It uses graveyard abuse in order to generate massive card advantage, then generally wins by Tooth and Nailing out Terastodon and Kederekt Leviathan, or simply by casting Time Stretch multiple times and winning with Vorosh beats. The manabase is solid and the ramp is consistent. The Flashback cards synergize with the Loam engine and River Kelpie. The deck has many Persist creatures which work well with cards like Llanowar Reborn and also resist sweepers. The deck can be fairly complex in that each hand offers several dozen decision trees at any given time, so finding the optimal play each turn can be tough, especially when so many cards can be played or abused from the graveyard.
yes that's true it remove counter on persist creature and you can return the land to your hand for more persist play... trade route for the win
one artifact that i cant stop playing in blue is crystal shard you can return eternal witness to your hand and infinite time warp/time strech combo(a little harder with time strech) you can also return your beloved persist creature to your hand to recast them. its also a pseudo-counter making your opponents creature +1 to protect from this shard! overall its a pretty cool card!

Crystal Shard is an amazing card, there's just no room for it in my build. Plus there are plenty of other ways to abuse creatures so it's not like not having it is a great loss.
As for Deep Reconn, it's early ramp that has Flashback, which obviously makes it better if it gets milled than any of those other cards (not to say they're not good though).
I bet INN will make this deck even stronger, if the Flashback cards are even halfway decent.
