This deck revolves around the ability exalted, by trying to make 1 of your creatures unstoppable when all of the exalted triggers happen. Use Vorrac Battlehorns to give your single attacker trample and prevents multiple creatures from blocking your one, almost guaranteeing that some damage will go through. Read the Bones and Scarscale Ritual let you draw and refresh your hand. Soltari Priest is basically unblockable and with all the exalted triggers he becomes a beast. Dutiful Thrull is great because he is practically unkillable. Aven Squire is nice because he has flying. Duty-Bound Dead is a decent blocker if he has to be. With first strike Sigiled Paladin practically takes no damage because of all the exalted triggers. Finally Go for the Throat and Disfigure are your removals. Sublime Archangel is great but saddly he is too expensive for me to get now. However if I were to put him in I would probably sub 2 Sublime Archangel, for one Knight of Infamy and one Knight of Glory . This deck can easily be under $20, if you replace Go for the Throat for Doom Blade also if you want you could run it without Cathedral of War, but in my opinion that is a lot the fun of this deck. Or if you want to improve it you can switch out Disfigure for Dismember. I welcome all suggestions, comments, and criticism.
