Ended getting another Elspeth vs Kiora. 22ish bucks for two rather potent decks is just too good to pass up. Anyways, took out all four Captain's Calls. They're a decent sorcery spell in my opinion, but, I like Raise the Alarm more. It's cheaper by three mana, which is pretty nice in a cheaper (mana wise) deck, and it's only one less Soldier token. The fact that it's an instant, at least in this deck, doesn't really mean much, I have it to start token production. Anyways, I took them out, and put in a second Elspeth, Sun's Champion. She's just too damn powerful to not have a second one. I also put in a fourth Captain of the Watch, a fourth Dictate of Heliod and finally I threw in Devout Invocation.

My logic for that last one was, where it's a late game spell in this deck, I should have several Soldier tokens on the field. So, it wont hurt me too much to get a fairly several 4/4 Angel tokens. Which, will be getting buffed by most of the stuff I have.

I did take out a couple other Soldiers, I felt they just weren't great for token generation, or benefiting the team with buffs.

I found myself using Elspeth's second ability very rarely. Partially because of the fact that, by the time I could get her out, and use her -3, my stuff was already above 4 power. But then, I saw something. Rootborn Defenses. I mostly had it in here for the populate part, never really caring too much for that indestructible side. And it hit me. I throw that down, hit them with her -3, then hit them with everything. With that in mind, I plan on using her -3 on occasion now.

It's becoming a pretty aggressive deck. As of right this minute, I'm pretty happy with this. It runs pretty consistently, and pretty smooth.

Added Text: Tip: If you like the Dragons of Tarkir Event Deck, buy it and use the fitting cards for this deck and keep the rest for your library.; A birdie told me, that Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded in combination with Insurrection makes up for a good budget planeswalker.;

Maybeboard: +Bow of Nylea; +Hammer of Purphoros; +Ogre Battledriver; +Sagu Mauler; +Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded; +Act of Aggression; +Insurrection

Infini-gary

raverswivel, 10 years ago

so I decided to get rid of Sidisi, Brood Tyrant as it had a tendency of milling through my enchantments (which I could then not get back), and decided to throw in 2 Gray Merchant of Asphodel (who I will from now on refer to as gary) and see how it worked out. I am pretty happy with the addition, and have found a fun little self cycling series (across several turns that is). this does however take a little bit of time to set up, but with the absolute perfect hand and draw series, I want to say it can be done by turn 7 or 8 ish (like seriously... the stars and planets would have to align)

but anyways, so the goal is to have a Sidisi, Undead Vizier, Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Prophet of Kruphix, 2 X Palace Siege, and a last sedisi in your hand. (I know this sounds impossible, but considering how many cards you can pull straight to your hand using sidisi and palace siege, it doesnt take too long. you just have to get prophet of kruphix on the board immediately after palace siege).

play your sidisi from hand, which causes board sedisi to die, and you exploit gary, end turn.

at the beginning of your next turn, pull gary and sedisi from the graveyard to your hand, play gary, then play sedisi... thus repeating the cycle.

I have found it quite beneficial to pull a Dictate of Erebos off of the first sedisi, so that when I play the second sedisi, the opponant has to sac 2 creatures (the sedisi on the board technically dies when you play a second one)

other minor changes include

Removed

Dictate of Erebos X -1 (replaced with a Ruthless Deathfang so that on the off chance I have to put both dictates in the graveyard, this would allow me to pull one of them out.)

Silumgar Butcher X -2 (replaced with Sidisi's Faithful X 2 to lower the mana curve and slow the game down in the early turns)

Gravepurge X -1 (replaced with 2 Profaner of the Dead, to slow down the mid game, it also seems to be effective at defending against rabble red so long as you have a creature to exploit with toughness 3 or greater)

Goin' to a more RDW Feel!

JundGrixisNayaBantEsper, 10 years ago

Shifting cards and building a RDW-esque build with the best removal (In my opinion of course) Chained to the Rocks and Atarka's Command to provide more firepower to the Goblin crew. SB contains more G+W options to help against many other archetypes!

Overall I would like some feedback on the list and what you all think! Hopefully going to attend a FNM if the cards arrive in time =)
