Match Report —Jan. 22, 2021
I played this for the first time against my friend's Nicol Bolas Archenemy deck.
There were two other decks on my team - a White Pioneer deck, and an Orzhov Control deck.
My Walking Dead deck performed very well.
It got colour screwed in the first game, but was able to com back from that.
In the second game I had four Humans + Rick Trusted Leader on the field, but there was a board wipe before I could attack with any of them.
Rick Trusted Leader|Rick and Negan ended up being the most useful cards. Glenn gave excellent draw value.
I feel like four sol rings could be a bit much for casual play considering you could chain them into 10 mana on turn 2. Even having only 2 of them in your opening hand seems a bit busted.

smelltank since all the Walking Dead cards require coloured mana, I have found that I usually only get to cast one per turn in the early game.
The Sol Ring itself, and the No-Dachi are the only exceptions.
Due to our other decks being so fast, this deck just couldn't keep up.
It should also be kept in mind that only one of the Walking Dead cards can be on the field at any one time, due to their Legendary status.
I have already spoken with my playgroup, and decided to limit playing this to only Archenemy, or Horde Magic.
Thanks for the feedback.

You could swap out the sol rings for Farseek and put in some fetch lands

I want to stay away from too many duals, to make things more chaotic.
I'm allowing one tri land to smooth things out somewhat.
I have a real soft spot for the flip lands, and also like how they make this deck a bit tougher to play.
I really wanted to put Heart-Piercer Bow in as Daryl's weapon, so what I'm going to do is put those in a Sideboard, and swap them for the Sol Rings if I need to make the deck weaker.

I should also say that StuBi and I have tested this a bit, and it seems to be working how I want it to.
Not that I don't appreciate feedback. It helps me to think about building choices. Thanks.

Daryl already does himself what Heavy Arbalest lets him do.
I'm not sure how to untap him with it equipped.
Besides, I like the flavour of Heart-Piercer Bow. It's kind of like the newer bows he's been sporting of late.
Also, I'm pretty sure I have a truck load of those at home, doing nothing.
That's basically how Liliana, the Last Hope made it into the deck.

No-Dachi might be a better sword
