Have you ever noticed how much "Soul Sisters" and "RW Twin" decks had in common ?
Those archetypes have many synergies and their mix provides with a very adaptative and resilient deck, that can attack on either sides, according to what it's facing!
Survive with the help of your sisters (
Soul Warden
,
Soul's Attendant
and
Auriok Champion
) and win through
Archangel of Thune
or Purphoros, God of the Forge.
This midrange approach is best against disruptive or very aggressive decks and the combo pieces still fit the theme by triggering ETB effects.
Get
Splinter Twin
on a
Village Bell-Ringer
or
Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
and either
Village Bell-Ringer
or
Restoration Angel
for infinite creatures.
Most of the time, this means infinite life with any sister and victory through a massive attack, nice and easy.
This combo approach is best against "fair" decks that lack disruption. Most of the time, people will see you start as a Soul Sisters deck and will be utmost surprised - and probably dead - when you get the combo out. Twin/Kiki are rarely seen without blue ;-)
According to what you're facing, you can strengthen either side of the deck.
When facing linear strategies, you can boost the combo side by getting an additionnal
Village Bell-Ringer
plus
Heliod's Pilgrim
to fetch for
Splinter Twin
.
On the opposite, when going for more board presence,
Auriok Champion
and Mirran Crusader are excellent against their respective hated colors.
Angelic Overseer
and
Outpost Siege
are pretty effective against Control decks.
Other cards are there for the usual hate :
Rest in Peace
(graveyard strategies),
Leyline of Sanctity
(burn or discard), Stony Silence (artifacts),
Wear / Tear
(artifacts and/or enchantments).
Thanks for reading, if you enjoy the deck, do not hesitate to hit the button :-)
