Marauder's Axe

Artifact — Equipment

Equipped creature gets +2/+0.

Equip (: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery.)

Some equipment you could add: Obsidian Battle-Axe, Relic Axe, Amorphous Axe, Marauder's Axe, Murderer's Axe, and probably the best if you lean into these, Bearded Axe.

For creatures, Liege of the Axe, Stonebrow, Krosan Hero, and Boggart Loggers seem like worthy includes.

Fun bonus option, Burden of Guilt doesn't feature an axe, but gives the vibe of shaming people for not using axes.

Hi! Thank you for the advice! I cut a lot of cards like Marauder's Axe and some of the pure value cards like you suggested. I had a little bit of trouble finding win-conish permanents due to the restriction from Zirda, my companion, but I did find some interesting cards like Hellkite Igniter that I think will work well.

Solid list! I'm almost jealous you have all the beefy boi swords. I like that you aren't focusing on a voltron build. It can certainly end up going for the commander damage but Gwyn really shines with the other knights so you can increase your synergy and crazy shenanigans with the free equipping. This deck seems to have the same kind of synergy goals that mine has and I've had quite a bit of success with it so I'm sure you will too!

I first second the need to include Puresteel Paladin and Leonin Shikari, they have more than earned their value for me. I would maybe suggest considering Phyrexian Crusader for either a potential win-con or for target fodder to protect your other knights. Paladin en-Vec has been great for a cheap little guy with lots of protections, though that one has been great for me because of the playgroup I run in so it's a solid maybe with your list.

How's your mana curve been? I'm seeing the Sol Ring and Arcane Signet but you might consider other mana rocks to get the knights rolling a little faster.

And last but not least, absolutely consider trading out the Marauder's Axe for Bloodforged Battle-Axe. It's cheaper to cast and can get out of control since the tokens it makes also have the ability to create tokens; most times when I cast it I hear groans from the other players because they know it stacks pretty fast when equipped to protected knights.

Overall, love what you're doing with Gwyn. I think this is a great deck list! Recently, I have been through some growing pains with an equipment deck and I've included some suggestions/subs below. I hope you find some of these helpful!

Creatures: Depending on your budget I would definitely look at Puresteel Paladin. Fits into Knight tribal, gives card draw, and reduces equip cost when your commander isn't on the field. Leonin Shikari isn't a Knight, but would be awesome in this deck, especially when you have your commander out. Angel of Glory's Rise is expensive to cast, but gives you some resiliency and brings back 18 creatures on your list. Obviously Stoneforge Mystic is great but is super expensive.

Artifacts: Since you're running Scroll Rack, you could take a look at Sensei's Divining Top it would do wonders with the Rack. I've run Worn Powerstone before and I personally don't like it because it comes down tapped. A solid mana rock or something like Gilded Lotus / Thran Dynamo could make for better alternatives.

Enchantments: Doom Foretold is interesting to include, something like Glory of Warfare might better suited for what you're trying to do.

Potential Equipment Tweaks: -Marauder's Axe +Sword of the Animist -Crystal Slipper +Swiftfoot Boots. Hammer of Nazahn is expensive but worth every penny in an equip deck. Lightning Greaves / Whispersilk Cloak will help protect your commander once she's in play.

Tutors: Steelshaper's Gift Open the Armory Enlightened Tutor will help get what you need. Stonehewer Giant is a pseudo tutor / fetch what you need, and has a solid body.

Sorcery/Instant: Maybe one or two more board wipes if you think there's a place for it? Some of my personal favorites: Fumigate Hour of Revelation Wrath of God. Also, Boros Charm is a really great silver bullet and something to consider as well.

Again, overall I think you have a really solid build. I'm sure you've already won your share of games at your playing it. Like I said, I've gone through some growing pains with equipment and these are some suggestions that I came up with off the top of my head. Best of luck!

Kythos, God of the Walls

Legendary Artifact Creature - Gargoyle God

Indestructible

As long as you control five or fewer artifacts, Kythos isn't a creature.

As long as your devotion to colorless is more than seven, Kythos has flying.

Artifacts you control untap whenever an artifact you control becomes the target of a spell of ability an opponent controls.

5/9

I'd like a Common draft chaff artifact or sorcery which is interesting. (It bugs me to no end that they print boring bad cards. I understand the goal in bad cards, but want interesting ones.)

See: Marauder's Axe and Torch Gauntlet as strictly worse versions of Bonesplitter , Darksteel Axe , and Vulshok Morningstar

That's unoriginal poor quality.

Original, poor quality would be Skyblinder Staff , Razor Boomerang , Tormentor's Trident , Thirsting Axe .

FWIW, the Syr Gwyn precon deck already comes with 3 valid targets for Sunforger , but that decklist also contains absolute duds that could be replaced (like Marauder's Axe could probably be removed and replaced with a Warleader's Helix . Single Combat should be taken out of the precon too, it's so bad). For reference, those aforementioned Sunforger targets are:

The following included instants can't be searched for with Sunforger because, while the cards are anywhere but on the stack, their converted mana cost is equal to the combined costs of both halves:

So, one might probably remove Sunforger if you're not going to put in at least two to five more valid instants of CMC 4 or less.

I've also recently started PDH. I would suggest changing the following for objectively-better versions

Cultist's Staff -> Vulshok Morningstar

Marauder's Axe - > Bonesplitter

other suggestions

Leonin Scimitar , Short Sword alternatives or you can add all 3 as they are just other Honed Khopesh

Skyblinder Staff If you have flying and cant be blocked by flying, you can only be blocked by Reach (which not many PDH players play)
