Have you thought about adding Syr Konrad, the Grim, The Circle of Loyalty, Kinsbaile Cavalier, and Battle Angels of Tyr? I think they’d all be bangers in this deck.

Kari Zev, Skyship Raider will give you another counter every time she attacks. Tuktuk the Explorer is good for two counters.

The Circle of Loyalty is legendary, gives you an additional +1/+1 and adds knight to your bonus for casting other legendaries

Thanks for the suggestions, I didn't know about those land options. The Circle of Loyalty looks good too

I rarely recommend this card because it's usually not good, but The Circle of Loyalty might be a great fit for this deck!!

Additionally, Takenuma, Abandoned Mire, Sokenzan, Crucible of Defiance, and Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire are some very good legendary lands that were printed recently.

Darth_Savage - Thanks for your thoughts and giving me an excuse to take a break from work!

In regard to graveyard synergy and knights...you are not wrong. Knights are not exactly the most ideal candidates for graveyard mechanics. You did miss Oathsworn Vampire who is similar to Deathless Knight but at least returns to play instead...even if it is tapped. But ya...those two are not exactly going to make any opponent tremble in a deck like this.

You are also not wrong about there being better reanimators out there like Bloodghast and company and that Breathless Knight would definitely shine brighter in a deck filled with those types of creatures. regardless of it not being used to its fullest potential, Breathless Knight + Dauntless Bodyguard + Haakon, Stromgald Scourge due have some great synergy as you can sac the bodyguard to grant indestructibility for a single {W}, recast, and repeat. Recently added that combo and definitely need to capitalize on it more.

I am slowly agreeing with you regarding The Circle of Loyalty. Running a single copy is not ideal and even the games when I do get it, is is usually discarded or not played. I think I can remove that for something better for sure.

You mentioned you feel like the deck is torn in two ways...graveyard synergy and what I am guessing is the discard/madness? Is that right? If so, you are correct...I am trying to build the deck around Haakon and maximize my ability to get him in the graveyard to be played by hitting discards often. So it should feel like that to a degree but still need to likely get this strategy optimized...The recent changes were definitely for the better but not perfect by any means.

Metroid_Hybrid - That makes sense. I kinda did the same thing with my "tribal" knight deck (For Honor and Glory!!!) as humans and knights can get alot of synergy. Just wanted to throw Kinsbaile out there as he is a beast in a knight deck if you are willing/able to have a 4 CMC creature.

In regard to The Circle of Loyalty, I was not suggesting that for your deck but prior to your human sub-theme explanation I thought Kwende might have been a layover from having The Circle in as Kwende is a legendary. It is a really great card but you kinda have to build around it to maximize its efficiency and your build as you noted, is not the most ideal.
