Land:
2 x Vhitu Ghazi
4 x Breeding Pool
4 x Hallowed Fountain
4 x Temple Garden
3 x Flagstones of Troikar
3 x Forest
1 x Island
2 x Simic Growth Chamber
Creatures:
1 x Simic Sky Swallower
2 x Akroma, Angel Of Wrath
Spells:
4 x Wrath Of God
4 x Utopia Sprawl
4 x Polymorph
4 x Remand
3 x Rewind
3 x Faith's Fetters
4 x Call Of The Herd
2 x Think Twice

2 x Supply // Demand
1 x Research // Development
Sideboard
1 x Sacred Mesa
3 x Defense Grid
2 x Debtors' Knell
1 x Blazing Archon
1 x Simic Sky Swallower
3 x Shadow of Doubt
4 x Gigadrowse
Essentially, get tokens into play, and polymorph until you hit one of the fatties. There are 2 Akroma's in there mainly to increase the chances that you'll hit one of those first. You'll never want more than 1 fatty in play.
I've chosen rewind as my main hard counter simply because I'm always going to have something to do in the first few turns - in the way of tokens etc, and it's more useful as a hard counter to take on gigadrowse.
Utopia Sprawl is a decent acceleration tool that won't be hit by polymoprh.
I've elected Telling Time and Think Twice of other card draw for their instant qualities, and Telling Times ability to ensure that I don't draw my creatures when accelerating through.
The deck has problems vs heavy counter control, so the SB is mainly geared toward that.
SB:
Sacred Mesa is great vs control - if you can get it in.
Gigadrowse is vs control to ensure the polymoprh goes off
Shadow of Doubt for D-Storm and anything with Flagstones or Mystical Teachings.
Blazing archon vs aggro - to be morphed in of course.
Defense Grid - again Vs Aggro.
