Sideboard


Black white green tokens deck.

Full description and card explanation soon.

Embalming Angel of Sanctions with Anointed Procession is a game breaker

Hello everybody this is my 2nd try at Abzan tokens ( my other list is similar, but less consistent). Junk/Abzan Tokens based off of Sam Blacks deck at the Pro Tour.

The deck uses value heavy 1 drops like Thraben Inspector and Blisterpod for chumping and getting us more resources to help transition into our mid and late game.

Our 2-drops consist of either playing Hidden Stockpile and triggering revolt off them blocking our 1 drop monster or playing evolving wilds and cracking it for a land to trigger. Otherwise if you cannot trigger revolt, play Anointer Priest or just pass turn and Crack your clue.

Turn 3 is a setup turn. Make sure you have been setting your lands that come in tapped correctly so that you can have 4 untapped lands at turn 4. Turn 3 should consist of usually a tapped land and some sort of combination of 1 drop and 2 drop, or an Ulvenwald Mysteries. This card is AWESOME. Everytime a non-token creature dies you investigate. If you have an Anointed Procession out you actually get TWO clues because they are clue tokens. Once you have this card down you have your card draw engine for the game as well as something that can create more 1/1 dorks for you.

Turn 4 is where things get spicy. You have choices of Anointed Procession if you are not being pressured. Gideon, Ally of Zendikar if you feel like you need some board presence. I like to play Gideon turn 4 over procession and get turn 5 procession. That way you can make a total of 3 2/2 Allies over the course of 2 turns instead of 2. If you're being heavily pressured, Dusk//Dawn will be good this turn.

After turn 4 you shouldn't be having land problems. If you don't have Cryptolith Rite out then you just play a standard Aristocratty style deck, but once it's out you can do some shenanigans. EVERY one of you servos you create off Hidden Stockpile will become mana at your next turn. The mana scion tokens off Catacomb Sifter and Blisterpod become 2 mana each. You can tap them and sacrifice for 2 mana. If you have 3 of them thats 6 mana!!! add in 4 lands to tap and you can hard cast Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger.

If by this time your opponent has managed to build a significant board because you've just been biding your time and chumping his creatures every turn, then no matter. Get your Angel of Sanctions down on their most important thing and do 1 of 2 things. If that's enough to stabilize your board then great, just swing in the air for 3 every turn and if it gets removed that fine if not better. By the time you can embalm Angel of Sanctions you should have 1 or 2 anointed procession out on the field. Embalm that hoe and get 2 or 4 exiling angels back to remove their stuff. If you need to remove more than just 1 thing, Sacrifice your Angel of Sanctions for 1 mana off Hidden Stockpile and Embalm him back for 2 or 4.

Advice: Anointer Priest Embalm triggers on itself. If you embalm it with Anointed Procession out, they will trigger on each other too. You will gain 4 life. Have 2 Anointed Procession? Gain 16 life. Each Turn. Because of your Hidden Stockpile.

This deck gets crazy out of control and you can have turns where you Sac 5 clues and scry 10 times and can just setup perfect draws and hands.

Took the deck to FNM at the most competitive place here locally.

Went 2-2. Could have been 3-1.

First game went against Mardu Vehicles. Oh man. What a sweep. Took the round 2-0 easily after getting my anointed procession/hidden stockpiles out. Never saw a Heart of Kiran and the only threats she really brought were Glorybringer which got exiled by Angel of Sanctions or ignored because I could gain more than 4 life per turn thanks to Anointer Priest and her Embalm.

Second game was much harder. Black Green Energy with Constrictor and counters. He beat me down the first game before I had time to stabilize, but after the sideboard I won 2-1. Second round was in my favor and I was in the driver seat the whole time with a sideboarded in Noxious Gearhulk to deal with his Verdurous. I also sideboarded Grasp of Darkness and Collective Effort to help deal with some more earlier removal. Last round was crazy with him bringing me down to like 3 or 4 but I got 2 Anointed Procession down and had an embalmed Anointer Priest on the field. At this point I had 6 clues because he used Yahenni's Expertise to clear the board while I had Ulvenwald Mysteries and Anointed Procession out. I got to crack a bunch of clues, draw a bunch of cards, make a bunch of 1/1 white soldiers, and gain a bunch of life. The combos were crazy. Went back up to like 40 hp and he just scooped.

3rd game was WB Zombies. Got creamed the first round, not a good hand to keep against them. Second round got him down to 3 and topdecked Collective Defiance to put counters on 2 creatures of mine to swing for lethal, didn't see his Shambling Vents tucked neatly under his other lands that he chumped with and then won the game.

4th game was against some boros aggro deck using Solemn Recruit Selfless Spirit, Thraben Inspector, and Exemplars. His deck was just too fast and got under me before I could setup. Also perfect that his only removal Declaration in Stone works the best against my deck. Eh.

Summary: Half way through was tied for first, ended up 7th. lol
