There are many things that Brian Kibler is known for, but when it comes to Magic perhaps the biggest ones are loving Naya creature decks.
Whether it's putting Armadillo Cloak on Rith, the Awakener or winning Pro Tour Austin with Wild Nacatl and Baneslayer Angel, Brian clearly knows his way around creature decks.

Annie Joins Up is quite the card!
Four mana for a removal spell isn't great, but think of Annie Joins Up more like an unkillable planeswalker than a removal spell. Once Annie Joins Up is in play, all your legends get supercharged with double triggers happening all over the place and creating an amazing advantage.
The only card that really doesn't do it for me is Djeru and Hazoret. The ceiling of the card is very tempting, but it is a card that I have tried out a ton and simply has never worked. It is so hard to get the game in a scenario where you've got a clean attack, one or less cards in hand, and your opponent doesn't have an answer at the ready that I'm not sure the card is worth the trouble.
Otherwise, this is a really fun and exciting deck utilizing a lot great synergies and unique effects!
