A mid power level (Think precon with a better mana base) deck utilizing a blend of creatures and equipment to allow for going wide or tall depending on game state and mood. I wanted the deck to be lower power so outside of a solid mana base and a low to the ground CMC it is on par with a slightly upgraded Precon. While the deck does pull in 2 different directions (Splitting Voltron and go wide strategy) this helps off set the low CMC and faster play to help keep it inline with lower power level tables.

I basically built it with cards from my collection so could not resist putting in Stonforge Mystic or Sword of Feast and Famine since they were just sitting around and thankfully they do not really add to the power level of the deck enough to make it noticeable.

While I built the deck to be lower powered I did want it to have a low Avg. CMC to allow for playing both equipment and creatures in the same turn without relying on outside state based effects to equip. Each creature provides either strong utility or some sort of keyword ability by itself (First Strike was a big one to negate death touch) and each equipment can be used to help augment a go wide strat or allow for a voltron strat (though it is not optimized for this strat it can work, especially with Balan, Wandering Knight activate).

Only wincon outside of combat dmg is Approach of the Second Sun since games at this power level sometimes go for longer than they really need to and I am not a fan of 2+ hour games.
