This deck has gotten no cards since RETURN TO RAVNICA, until now I guess.

Removed:

Added:

And that's it, those are the only changes I feel I can make after well over one year of ignoring the deck completely. I really hope Trostani gets a bigger boost in the near future.

Nah, those are all pretty mediocre cards for this deck. They're all worse than cards I play.

Really? Imho Wayfaring Temple is one of the most effective token deck cards out there.

Both it and Call of the Conclave are way more cost effective than for example Kazandu Tuskcaller because with it you have to pay 6 manas before you get any tokens in to play and even after that it itself will stay only as 1/1 creature that is really easily wiped out.

But hey, that's completely your call :)

What is your plan for flying defense? i do not see anything other than a couple spot removal to deal with flyers. Doesnt matter how much like gain you have when Gisella comes across the board with double strike.

I now see your angel flying generator and the akrooma memorial. But i ddont think it is enough for consistency.

Flying Defense? Why would I ever need that? I have removal and I don't play 1v1. I've been playing this deck for about 2 years now. I know what I'm doing.

Also, a flying creature doesn't stop a voltron deck, why would you ever think that Gisela could be blocked at all?

Im sorry if you feel that you are imortal. I happen to play against a parosh deck that WILL put a player out on turn 6. if you cant block then that game for you. and while my gisela deck is more a mid to late game you really cant take more than 2 hits from her that provided she is only enchated lightly. And you can stick the attitude. You are on this site for advice and i gave it too you. Your deck wouldnt last in my meta end of story. Good for you if you play against people without flying Commanders.

And what do you mean flying creature dont stop voltron. It only takes 21 CDR damage to stop you. Only way that isnt happening is if you are running a 4 player game but you actually have the other guys covering you to make sure you win.

Flying creatures don't stop a creature that's unblockable. I also know my playgroup, no need to pretend you're superior okay buddy?

I'd just like to advise you to realize that I had no attitude, but you're being exceedingly rude, so please shut up.

I read that as an attitude. Go back and re read it. and while you are looking at it offensively the deck is good. Im not saying someone is going to block all 100,000 of your tokens. im saying that you may have be vulnerable to flying attacks. It just doesnt seem to address that. like i said before you have a few removal cards those are nice. but a something like gravity well would be a good addition. or more reach or flying creatures. just saying. you can take it how you want.

Before anyone suggests it: No I will not run Wingmate Roc.

+1 building a budget trostani myself, so this gave me some great ideas. but I have to ask why no Wayfaring Temple or Tolsimir Wolfblood?

Wayfaring Temple didn't make the cut because it's not nearly as efficient or cool as my other 3-drops, and it doesn't have trample.

Tolsimir was cut a long time ago for similar reasons, and it was redundant as an anthem when there are so many better ones out there. If there was a 6-drop I felt was under-performing, maybe I'd reconsider.

@ keen_the_crazy: Probably because I haven't updated the deck in a year and I won't be able to for a while longer.
