preferably stuff that is relevant in conjunction with CLOVEN CASTING.

its the only way to fly.

just run the powerful 2 drop 2/2 deck, about 40 of them should work me thinks, or play some random soldier deck - I actually have one made but it's missing a few spicy meatballs

Suggested by some dude on SCG. I liked the idea of cascading purely into acceleration and running (probably) the two best creatures in standard. However it does just fold to almost everything. Unfortunately by the time you get Iona out on turn 6, she's usually no longer relevant. If you don't draw wrath it just dies to aggro preboard. Also, really not sure about the negate in the SB, doesn't seem like an ideal cascade target!
