This is my Mardu Knight/Crusader Deck. The theme is the Crusade's of 1095 AD. I tried my best to keep it very religious feeling so to speak, and also added in advisor's/politicians into the mix because, not only were they decent cards imo, the Crusade's also involved political agenda's.

The win condition of the deck is to basically flood the board with cheap knights and equipment and go ham. There's a bit of removal and control, to keep things manageable, and artifacts/enchantments to give the knights more beef. The deck still is in need of revision, and is pretty weak to flying, but it can pump out knights pretty quickly even with regular board wipes/control.

I'd eventually like to get better equipment, or more flying creatures and stay as themed as I can.

Leave a comment on what you think and if you have any suggestions.
