If I were running Arashin Foremost in my warrior deck, I would take a serious look at Citadel Siege.

Oh my! Glad to see that there are people who builds an Abzan warriors deck just like me! That alone gives me reason to upvote this deck!

Now if you may, I'll try to give you some suggestions.

First off, I advice that you remove Chief of the Scale, as it really doesn't give your opponent some early game presence, at the very least you could put it in the sideboard sideboard and use it against decks with Drown in Sorrow or other weenie hate. Maybe put some Battle Brawler or Mardu Woe-Reaper?

Next, how about Den Protector? At least a two-of? You could replace two Heir of the Wilds for it as its Megamorph ability really helps a lot (midgame to late game especially) as you can return a Siege Rhino from your graveyard to your hand to be recast again.

Can you explain to me that sideboard Siege Rhino? I'd run that mainboard as it really helps big time.

Lastly, what are your thoughts about Hidden Dragonslayer? I am currently listing it in my sideboard against Abzan decks.

So there, just some suggestions and insights about your deck, hope it helps. Also, if you want, you could check out my own brew of my Abzan warriors deck. Maybe you could see something there that helps.

Thanks man, i really like Chief of the Scale mainboard as my meta has a lot drowns and bile blights, things that i dont expect to change going into DTK, scale just helps get round them more easily and so id rather not remove them.

i played Battle Brawler before in a WB version of them deck and always found it pretty lackluster, Heir of the Wilds i feel is a very good replacement as at worst its a blocker that trades with any big threats they have.

The Siege Rhino is in the board because of Collected Company (which can just destroy an opponent), in testing hitting a rhino off collected is the worst feeling, so id rather play an additional Mardu Strike Leader over another rhino, also it also doesn't get the boost from any of my tribals which is annoying, but a fourth can be useful against decks where i cant get the last few points through

Hidden Dragonslayer seems like it could be very good meta dependent, so i will keep that under consideration - thanks

Den Protector could be very good but requires a lot of mana to use efficently, 5 mana to hit one specific card in the grave is pretty good but once again Collected Company just seems stronger as you can hit 2 creatures of equal value (which you dont need to pay costs for)

Mardu Woe-Reaper just seems too low impact and id rather not be running too many 1 drops, especially ones with a colour conflict, running an additional one drop i would run Mardu Shadowspear

thanks for you input =]
