My attemp at an abzan deck wiithout blowing 1000$, suggestions?
Maybeboard:I am considering taking out Vampire Nighthawk for Qasali Pridemage I love Batman but he is 3 cvc and he often end up being a chump blocker that kills, sure he gains you life and he is awesome when he attacks but i feel Pridemage will have better utility. With Exalted he definitely gives more value to everyoneo plus being able to destroy annoying enchantments / artifacts is always great.
Brimaz, King of Oreskos is a Fantastic card, I actually have him in my BW tokens he quickly goes on your opponent's priority list I am not sure where to put him but I have been considering him for a while.
Gurmag Angler I think he speaks for himself, a potentially cheap 5/5 a playset is too much but perhaps 1 of or 2 of would be doable. A very budget alternative to Goyf.
Man lands, I don't know if it's a good Idea but they are in a lot of decks they definitely have a lot of utility, Shambling Vent is fantastic because you can gain life with it personally it is probably the best ally man land if you ask me.
Kitchen Finks is easily the best replacement for Nighthawk. Considering that he will (in most cases) gain you 4 life, while nighthawk gaining you life runs on the hope of not getting removed and he is always an easy target for removal. Plus Gavony Township combos excellently with Finks.
Anafenza, the Foremost is easily an option a huge body for a 4/4 also compliments other creatures, ahem kitchen finks. Another creature that could take her place is Loxodon Smiter who is pretty solid in the mirror match w/ Liliana. Anafenza hurts goyf as well.
NOTE:I will not be adding Tarmogoyf or Liliana of the Veil I simply can't allow myself to spend that much $$ on 2 playsets. If you are cringing at the thought of playing midrange without those I see this more as a challenge. Maybe this deck can take a different turn than the traditional goyf and Liliana.
