JacctheInsomniac: I decided to put a Dragon Mage in for a little more heavy draw and discard, thank you for the suggestion!

No problem DaringApprentice, the wheel effects are fantastic for refilling your hand and dumping stuff into the graveyard. It's a bit tough at times to lose some cool stuff from your hand, but getting access to more of your deck is worth it. Plus cheating stuff in with Alesha is much easier than getting it to resolve at times.

If you wind up taking the deck down that hole, Flashback cards like Past in Flames work extremely well with mass discard outlets, and there is lots of fantastic instant speed removal in Mardu.

I'd also recommend Mother of Runes in place of Harvestguard Alseids as they both keep a high profile creature alive, but the former doesn't need any additional investment or conditions to function.

I might consider going more heavily down the wheel route at some point, they seem pretty sweet in an Alesha, Who Smiles at Death deck, and Past in Flames could help me get more uses out of them for sure, thanks for that tip!

I'll be keeping Harvestguard Alseids since it can protect Alesha, Who Smiles at Death if it's brought back using her ability, but I will be replacing Whispersilk Cloak with Mother of Runes. It seems like a great card for Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, and it of course has amazing Terese Nielsen art! What's not to love? Thanks again for these great suggestions!

Hi,

After looking through your Captain Sisay deck I continue here. Now just like Sisay I have never played Alesha in EDH but I do have her as my Tiny Leader.

Therefore I think I can give you a couple of suggestions.

Your list should run a Bone Shredder. This creature is amazing with Alesha, killing so many things. Yes it does not hit black and artifacts but what in the end is going to be a repeatable killspell for 2 mana he is great (I know he costs 3 but you only have to pay that once).

Another totally broken card with Alesha is Pack Rat. This innocent looking card can quickly become a problem. It's an amazing mana sink and becomes powerful fast. What's that? You are scared of discarding? Well... That is where the true value lies. Discard something really strong and bring it into play with Alesha for a mere 2 mana. How does it feel playing Archetype of Finality for 2 mana? Noosgraf Mob for 2? Need more convincing? Friggin Herald of Leshrak for 2 mana. I think I made my point :D

Finally, I would like to mention Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim. If you have her on the field below 50 life, she's good. If you are above 50 (Tymna can help there maybe) Ayli is broken.

Oops, sorry, didn't see the comment where you said you don't want Bone Shredder. Oh well, take a look at the other two suggestions, especially Pack Rat

Great suggestions again, Auronit, I've included Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim and Pack Rat! Such great combos for both, and it turns out I have a decent amount of lifegain already in the deck! Thank you for the help!
