What a Shalai, Voice of Plenty deck wants

- 2× Answer a whole board at once
- 15× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it

- 7× Refill your hand
- 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
