Assault Formation for Simics

Standard GU (Simic)

LoPhat


Sideboard


Assault Formation works well with the heavy defending creatures provided by blue.

Only if every game could go like this.

Turn 1: Land, Play Sidisi's Faithful

Turn 2: Land, Play Dragon's Eye Savants

Turn 3: Land, Play Assault Formation - Attack for 10

Turn 4: Land, Play 2nd Dragon's Eye Savants - Attack for 10

Turn 5: Land, Attack for 16: Play Profaner of the Dead Exploit Dragon's Eye Savants to uproot your opponent's board.

Often, you will put out some good defenders first and dig to find Assault Formation. Sidisi's Faithful & Profaner of the Dead keeps you in it long enough to stabilize.

==

Assault Formation - Better than expected. Built a deck around it.

Dragon's Eye Savants - With the enchantment - a 6 power creature for 2. Or an exploit target for Profaner of the Dead.

Sidisi's Faithful - Exploit to bounce a creature. 4 power creature with the enchantment.

Profaner of the Dead - Exploit creature and clear a path or remove threats. Hard to believe this card is an unplayed rare in an aggressive format.

Suggestions

Updates Add

Had a great time playing the previous build but it did have some mild issues in waiting for Assault Formation to land.

But...

After adding Collected Company it speeds things up. It plays similar to the Blue devotion build using CoCo, but the power tends to be better after Assault Formation gets into play.

So far testing is great. Looking forward to FNM.
