A revamped version of a Frontier deck I once made. This deck has a lot of options to deal with some of the biggest decks in Pioneer. Most notably: Burn, Oko, Izzet Pheonix, Bogle-less Bogles, and Copy Cat. It's a tad weak against Soulflayer, and Aetherworks, but it should handle fairly well against everything else.

Cards like Knight of Autumn , Dromoka's Command , and Abzan Charm keep the deck flexible and well-rounded. While Merfolk Branchwalker , and Tireless Tracker help to keep the train moving. The biggest player in the deck is probably Stonecoil Serpent . Stoncoil's ability to protect itself from multicolored spells, creatures, and abilities make it a great creature to invest +1 counters into.

There's an arguement to be made for Ajani, Caller of the Pride but until I play with the deck more and get a better feel for my LGS's meta Vivien, Arkbow Ranger seems like the better choice.
