$25 Budget Isshin

Hey there, I saw your post on Reddit and figured I'd leave my suggestions here. I think for the most part, the majority of the deck is solid, but you can likely swap out Heiko Yamazaki, the General, Asari Captain, Peerless Samurai, Raiyuu, Storm's Edge, Selfless Samurai, and Tempered in Solitude, since all of those only care about solo attacking Warriors or Samurai, or solo creatures in the case of Tempered in Solitude. From having played Isshin a lot, the deck wants to swing out with more than one creature a lot of the time, and these cards all feel at odds with the rest of your deck.
Some potential swaps that can still fit your budget:
-
Scapegoat - Mana efficient and budget friendly board protection. I had this in for a while before Clever Concealment was printed.
-
Signal Pest - Very solid one drop for just about any Isshin list.
-
Rakdos Signet - Your ramp is a little light, 1-2 more rocks can help.
-
Soul Partition - Pulls excellent double duty as a either a removal piece or can protect one of your permanents.
-
Elturel Survivors - Something I've wanted to find a slot for in my Isshin deck, but haven't been able to.
-
Scrappy Bruiser - A new piece of tech from MOM that's meant to synergize more with Backup, but can be a pseudo protective piece here.

You Totally Got This...! (Attacks Alone)
1 year ago
You're welcome. I'm not so sure about the effectiveness, tbh. I more or less just slammed the samurai I had into a working deck. What's awesome about the new samurai is their ability to through away an attacker for 3+ triggers, while easily being able to get that attacker back with Norika or Heiko. That's because many of the creatures are artifacts or enchantments.
Btw, how about the tribe's very own Exaltation, Asari Captain?
