Big update with Dominaria United! King Darien XLVIII makes such a huge difference in the deck. It passively buffs all of my creatures, which is amazing. But, more importantly, it also provides a board where I can Collected Company or Chord of Calling out my Walking Ballista, and it will live. The Ballista is the best choice for the deck anyways, since it works with both Vizier of Remedies and Devoted Druid as well as Heliod, Sun-Crowned. So Ranger-Captain of Eos is back as well to round the whole thing out.

On top of that, I'm trying out something new. Since Melira, Sylvok Outcast will continue to be relevant forever, as infect shifts to poison, I'm thinking about how to sub her out for game 2. If my opponent doesn't have infect or poison, Melira, Sylvok Outcast can start to hinder instead of help. I'll already have Vizier of Remedies and Heliod, Sun-Crowned for the Kitchen Finks combo. So instead of continuing to hurt the Devoted Druid and Vizier of Remedies combo for game 2, I'm seeing how substituting Fiend Artisan for Melira, Sylvok Outcast will go for now. Seems like a good fit, and could be versatile enough to make sense.

Additionally, Ajani, Sleeper Agent is amazing. A potentially 3 costing planeswalker on the side to Glittering Wish for just can't be beat. And it's also fantastically good

JacobAGrossman This is a really solid deck, I used it as inspiration for this deck:Abzan Solemnity Deck

Thanks, Batman18 for the kind words! Much appreciated :D. This deck has been the main one I've piloted since Collected Company first came out, and I knew I had my solution to the Birthing Pod ban. Glittering Wish just makes it all the sweeter

And nice deck there, yourself! I've always loved Solemnity, and have always wanted to find it a home. I love that you've combined both the Persist combo and the Prison combo into one deck, that's the way to do it! I've only ever seen them in independent decks, never really feeling like they're getting the utmost use out of the card like you are here :D

Would the newly spoiled Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler possibly have a spot as a wish target? I think it's very flexible card overall, but I don't see too many tap abilities in here, so it may not be useful enough in the current shell.

Seemed to have potential as a card, so figured I'd mention it.

Oh, absolutely! I already plan on making multiple changes this upcoming set :D. I want to add in Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler and Melira, the Living Cure to the side, as well as Skrelv, Defector Mite to the main. I'm super stoked to finally be getting some love in these colors, and some real feeling threats as opposed to cards of the day seeming stuff from the last few sets
