The ShiftstonedEternal Power Calculator is a deck-building tool that visualizes your odds of drawing enough Influence and Power based specifically on the cards found in your deck.
also, it feels like you need a lot of card/draw and card selection which really cuts into the neccessary grenadin package that comes with Combustion Cell and also also, if you end up going super heavy into grenadin package (Scraptank/Gearcruncher) why even bother with mill?
anyway, i think maybe the best place for Umbren Occluder will be in some kind of "mask mill" control shell, replacing Dreamsnatcher and running heavy sweepers, or better yet - this. or maybe some kind of reanimator variant? (it would be nice if they printed a fast spell discard effect so you could preemptively trigger tribute on the ambush, Devour/Last Rites/Burn Out are less than ideal)
but yea, i'm not convinced about the effectiveness of Umbren Occluder yet but i'd love to see someone make him work.
still dealing with my crafters remorse ;w;
The first set of legenderies I crafted were solitude's. Definitely not the best use of my shiftstone. The first two legenderies I crafted after the fall of argenport was Umbren. I fall for the mill legenderies every time. But yea milling just does not give you the same amount of control in eternal than it does with some MTG decks. It saddens me when I think about it.

yea i tried to make this work the other day and i'm really not sure if it's worth the efforts:

i took it from the mindset of dragon swarm, i.e. ramp to 8 mana with Rusty Grenamotive/Combustion Cell. but it's like, if you're ramping to 8 mana with a deck, shouldn't you just be doing Molot & Nakova or something more broken?
and going the Overwinder route requires too many tools like Tripwire Grenadin and Disassembler
