Leyline of Sanctity main deck with Chalice of the Void sideboard instead of Suppression Field and Trinisphere.

Also dropped the God for Oblivion Ring as a catch all tool box to be tutored for.

Drcfan on Devotion to White Angels

@DemonicExecuter

Depends on how many times you face aggro decks. You can construct your angels deck very different on the lower end. For Aggro you only need to survive 5 turns and then you are good. You can adjust your Angels setup deck for aggro with: (Keep in mind when you bring Sorceries and instants in your maindeck, you kill more and more any devotion plan)

What to put in:

• Mass removals: 4x Settle the Wreckage and 4x Terminus and 4x Sunscour (That one is actually only for retarted turn 2 boardswarm decks)
• Creatures: 4x Auriok Champion (Mono red aggro option, keep in sideboard), 4x Archangel of Tithes, Shalai, Voice of Plenty, Linvala, the Preserver
• Enchantments: 4x Ghostly Prison, 4x Norn's Annex

What to take out:

• General permanent removal like: Banishing Light, Oblivion Ring, Quarantine Field (You only need creature removal and not permanent removal. Make the mana curve lower with specific removal)
• Slow cards: Godsend, Avacyn, Angel of Hope etc

Journey to oblivion is the newest variant of Oblivion Ring and/or Journey to Nowhere- (and there have been many such variants), but I feel that its cost-reducing ability is too unreliable; when WotC eventually has a survey for this set, I shall state that I feel that the party mechanic is too narrow and unreliable.

Nahiri's lithoforming is a very nice card, but the fact that it requires both a payment of and sacrificing of lands makes it too expensive, in my mind; it should have require either one or the other of those payments, in my opinion.

For 3 mana, molten blast should have been to target players with its first mode.

It is nice to see a new version of Akiri, especially since she was introduced in a Commander product, and WotC previously has been usually keeping such characters only in such products.

Forsaken monument will be awesome in colorless and/or artifact decks, so I shall remember it, i I ever build such a deck.

smackjack, DeinoStinkus, that makes sense.

SynergyBuild on Ashaya is REAALLLLLY good

Ashaya, Soul of the Wild is better than you think. I promise you, it's better.

You think a 5 mana creature variant of mono-green Cryptolith Rite that is massive is all? Nope.

First off it's bigger than massive, like, a lot bigger. It is monstrous in many decks. Ever seen a lot of lands and creatures out? I see a 40/40 Ashaya. I wonder if Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, Soul's Majesty, Rishkar's Expertise, Traverse the Outlands, or Overwhelming Stampede would be good?

But even in a deck where it isn't that big, Ashaya is REAALLLLLLY good.

Worried about Cyclonic Rift, not on your creatures! Grasp of Fate, Abrupt Decay, Utter End, Anguished Unmaking, Oblivion Ring, etc. all are useless against it.

Not to mention... combos. Oh yeah, so... Quirion Ranger is an interesting card. It lets you bounce a forest to untap a creature.

Idk, what can a creature that's untapped do with Ashaya, Soul of the Wild? Oh, tap for mana. I wonder what's a forest that we can bounce? Oh, Quirion Ranger.

Yep, just those two go infinite together, only infinite casts, as you net even, but a Glimpse of Nature, Beast Whisperer, Primordial Sage, or Soul of the Harvest and you'll be just fine. Remember, it's a land that keeps entering, landfall infinitely, with a Lotus Cobra, Tireless Tracker, or similar, and you'll be well on your way to an easy win.

Have a Priest of Titania? Now you have infinite mana.

(Scryb Ranger can do similarly, another super easy combo)

Arbor Elf... yep, infinite untaps of itself, one Krosan Restorer and a medium graveyard, one Ley Weaver, or one Argothian Elder and you have infinite untaps and mana.

Of course, there is more, Nissa, Who Shakes the World, Timber Protector, etc.

Also, remember you can run Oblivion Stone, and all the rest too.

That's a lot of damage. Not to mention:

1. This card can be both a powerful commander or mana ramp/combo engine in decks.

2. Nissa, Who Shakes the World, Nissa, Worldwaker, etc. affect forests, and this is easily one of the best ways to get a ton of forests.

3. Titania, Steward of Argoth and other lands -> creatures style effects (think Rampaging Baloth) allow you to get a to get a ton of value from your creatures, reusing them for 4/4s and 5/3s.

4. Liege of the Tangle. Easy, clean reason why this card is hilariously fun!

5. Howl of the Night Pack, Boundless Realms, etc. There are a million of these combos, literally go look. I'm not even trying.

6. You can Leyline of Abundance for more value too, didn't mention that. Was gonna click start a new thread and just thought of it. Gonna click it now before I think of ten more!

Sylvarion on Knight Attack

My main deck is Mono White Knights. Here are a few really good knights that you're missing in my opinion.

Benalish Marshal, Knight Exemplar, Mirran Crusader, Student of Warfare, Worthy Knight and Kinsbaile Cavalier. For the Knight Lords like Marshal and Exemplar, I'm make sure to run 4x of these. Additionally, I'd look into Oblivion Ring, Path to Exile for spot removal, and Wrath of God can win you games if you're able to get one or ideally two Knight Exemplar out giving all of your Knights indestructible. For fluidity sake and to really maximize this deck idea, I'd take out anything that doesn't boost your knights or isn't a knight itself.

You have a good start. Glad to see more people playing Knights, as it's my favorite tribe!

i would take out Lone Missionary for Veteran Armorer or Lumithread Field to protect your creatures form Electrickery . Cut a Mourning Thrull , a Soul Warden OR a Soul's Attendant and a Plains for 3x Night's Whisper , you are going to need the card draw. Replace the Castigate with Harsh Sustenance or Unmake.

sideboard:

Take out Shadowfeed and put in Beckon Apparition , i think it will synergies with with the soul sisters and Edge of the Divinity by giving you a white/black creature token. take out Nihil Spellbomb for Relic of Progenitus , trade out the Swamp in the sideboard for a Bojuka Bog or 2x by taking out 1x Bonesplitter . Replace the Castigate and Disenchant with 3x Standard Bearer.

maybeboard:

Crimson Acolyte , Obsidian Acolyte , Prismatic Strands , Battle Screech , Rune of Protection: Red , Rune of Protection: Green , Epicure of Blood , Oblivion Ring

sorry about the last post with no hyperlinks to the card names. i am new
