Flying Monkey's

Here's the idea for the four "Monkey Cage's I've never used.
Get "Monkey Cage", and "Levitation" into play, cast "Surprise Deployment" ("Draco") 16 Flying Monkey's

Major Problem's:
  1. No early game.
  2. Have to stop Opponent from casting a little 1/1 while Monkey Cage is in play.
  3. Getting the three cards needed.
  4. etc...

Ideas?
I Imagine it would have to be a control type deck.

- The combo part -
   Monkey Cage
   Surprise Deployment
   Draco

- Other stuff that would be nice -
   Levitation
   Coat of Arms
   Wrath of God

There are so many Draco tricks that can be done and have yet to be discovered.

Monkey Cage probably would work better with Belbe's Portal but including both would not be a bad idea.

Here's an idea: U/W/G

Critters
Draco
A couple Dragons for the Portal
BoP? Doesn't work well with the Wraths

Permanents
Monkey Cage
Belbe's Portal
Telepathy (so you can time your Monkey Cage right)

Spells
Wrath of God
Eladamri's Call
Counters
Dismantling Blow
Fact or Fiction
Harrow
Surprise Deployment

You'll probably need more mana acceleration and maybe card drawing. There have also go to be some B/W/ or G cards that take advantage of Draco's high CC.

Coat of Arms shouldn't be necessary, if you have 16 2/2s they shouldn't need to be 17/17s. Same thing with Levitation, they could theoretically have 6 blackers and you'll still kill them

You have a Monkey deck without Uktabi Orangutans?

Skyshaper can replace Levitation if you want to remove blue.

Monkey Cage is actually a very strong card at the moment. Coffin Puppets are good, Caldron Dance is good. Just plain wating for Fires to cast a Blastoderm is good. We like Coffin Puppets best though.

Is "Flash" in or out?

Still can't think of a deck, here are some cards that seem to fit though.

Monkey Cage
Coffin Puppets
Cauldron Dance
Twilights Call

Maybe someone will come up with an idea?

I'm coming back to this idea (after some time).
So, heres' what I have. The idea, get Monkey cage in play with Coffin Puppets in your graveyard.
you can get Coffin Puppets in your graveyard with Addle.
I'm thinking about using Ostracize instead of Duress for the above reason (to get Coffin Puppet's into my graveyard), but Duress is really good, the question which is better for this deck?
Also, if you get another Monkey Cage in play you could Vendetta or Terminate your Coffin Puppet's and make more tokens.
I'd like to find something that could give my tokens evasion, I don't know what that something would be, or if I could even find room for it.
