Now this is really fun to play. It plays by equiping your archers and shooting your opponent's creatures down. Drop a Viridian Longbow and a Basilisk Collar on any creature and you basically have a "tap: Destroy target creature" effect!

Some of the creatures of the deck save you some equiping (e.g. Thornweald Archer), and others have some neater effects (e.g. Bassara Tower Archer , Brigid, Hero of Kinsbaile ).

Win condition? After your enemy's board is clear,hit him in the face with you archers buffed by Greatbow Doyen, or drop a powerful Reverent Hunter down! And of course Brigid + Doyen is pretty deadly if your opponent has lots of creatures in the battlefield!

Even though the deck only has 19 lands, the rangers and the amount of sorceries to seek lands through the deck will help you aleviate the problem.

The sideboard is built around this deck's general weaknesses. And I've gotta say these archers are a very powerful match for most aggro/rushdown decks, but have a really bad time against burn decks, so be wary and play smart!Suggestions are welcome!

Three new cards! — June 20, 2014
Edit

Thornbite Staff is now real! Found the space for it in the deck in a way that it doesn't affect it's balance in any negative way! Thanks to GeminiSpartanX for the suggestion!

Besides, Wooded Bastion is now inside the deck as well. It took the place of some Greypelt Refuges because it is a faster and, overall, better land (And fits the theme and has a cool illustration)

Another thing to talk about is the addition of Privileged Position to the maybeboard. It is a wonderful card, no doubt, and I could use it. It would help against high direct removal decks. I just have two problems with it:

1- This card is, money-wise, too expensive, and I still don't have it.

2- Don't know what to take out. Well... it could definetly be sideboard but... Would I want to spend that much money on a sideboard card?
