The idea of this deck is to storm your opponent using flying monsters, creating a bunch of spirit tokens, which get boosted by
Thunderclap Wyvern
. This is my second standard deck, so it probably has a bunch of flaws, but hopefully it turns out okay!
Anyways, the breakdown:
Faerie Miscreant is the early game stabilizer, and the drawing from having two or more of them is just an added bonus. It also costs a blue rather than a white, meaning it's easier to activate Spirit Bonds. It also works as a great beat stick for smacking your opponent.
Spirit Bonds is one of the cards of the deck, as it gives me a large army of spirit tokens, and it gives me the ability to give me creatures indestructible. Valorous Stance provides the indestructible benefits as well, and can be used to destroy big things on my opponents side.
Aven Sunstriker
is a nice early game stabilizer, especially nice against aggros. He's rather frail, but with a boost from Megamorph or
Thunderclap Wyvern
, he becomes far more intimidating.
Monastery Siege is extremely useful, as people often try to hit my specific creatures like Thunderclap or Archangel with spells. Therefore, I usually pick Dragons, unless I already have a couple of cards I want to discard in my hand.
Thunderclap Wyvern
. He's probably the best card in the deck, giving +1/+1 to all my creatures, including the spirit tokens. I can also flash him in for a surprise block, or to increase the power of all my other blocking creatures. I can't describe how much I like this guy.
Ajani Steadfast is a fantastic planeswalker that goes well with the deck, especially with Dragonlord Ojutai and Archangel of Tithes. His +1 is very convenient for a bit of life gain and vigilance, his -2 is awesome for +1/+1 counters, and he just works well in general.
Icefall Regent
and Wingmate Roc are nice 5 drops that help finish the game. Wingmate Roc brings in 2 3/4s. while Icefall Regent can tap problematic creatures.
Everything else is just utility: Ojutai's Command, Dig Through Time, and Monastery Siege are great cards.
Let me know what you think!
