First FNM Ever! —July 28, 2012
This was my brother's first crack at tournament play, but it seemed the deck was too slow. The overall results were 3-3, so we decided to make some changes.
I would drop the crusader of odrics for 4x Intangible Virtue .

Crusader of Odric , is gonna have a similar effect of Intangible Virtue without vigilance. Instead I get a creature that can go toe to toe with titans.

You have a pretty mean deck here the only time i could beat it with my Nicol Bolas deck was when your deck was mana screwed. +1 from me and any comments on my deck would be appreciated

This will work pretty well, just watch out for Ratchet Bomb s. I used to run an Esper version of something very similar to this and I know first-hand how much punch this strategy can pack.

I think you could swap Odric, Master Tactician for Hero of Bladehold . also, I recon Sorin, Lord of Innistrad is way way better than Elspeth Tirel . I do like the addition of True Conviction never seen that before so +1 :)

I like the control aspect of Odric, Master Tactician . Also Hero of Bladehold is in the sideboard for certain matchups that odric isn't needed. I like Sorin as well, but this is my brother's deck. I'm about 90% sure Sorin will make his appearance upon rotation. Thank you, and if you like the deck don't forget to score it.

Your curve is bad. Really bad. you have no ramp, and your spells are on a pretty high curve (3-5 mana). You will get mana screwed. Remove True Conviction and Elspeth Tirel and add some lower costing cards, like more Fiend Hunter s or Sorin, Lord of Innistrad . They aren't bad topdecks either and can be in your opening hand without you worrying about having the mana to cast them.

There are 6 cards that cost more than 4 mana, with the majority of the deck resting on a casting cost of 2 or 3 mana. That kind of curve doesn't seem unreasonable, although I would certainly vote to replace True Conviction with Sorin, Lord of Innistrad .

i like it a lot but since tokens is a reoccurring theme you could maybe try Entreat the Angels
