Magic The Gathering is usually a game that has war and combat as its central themes. But in times like these, I want to deliver a different message with this deck.

The war in Ukraine is an injustice and the West must do everything in its power to stand by the people of Ukraine.

So this deck is first and foremost in the colors blue / white because unfortunately we have no yellow and so most closely match the colors of Ukraine.

Furthermore, this deck represents the my wish, as I would have liked the outcome of this crisis. The deck tries by all means to avoid the fight or, if this is not possible, to prevent or reduce the effects.

Please share this deck and give it an upvote to set a sign against this terrible war and to show that people only wish for a life of peace and freedom.

Upvote+1

This deck is a work in progress. Help me to find cards to represent the message:

• Way of diplomacy like Mangara, the Diplomat.
• Peace and Harmony like Peacekeeper or Happily Ever After.
• Draw options like Divine Intervention.
• Taxes on war like Propaganda and Ghostly Prison.
• Prevent Combat like Pacifism or Arrest
• anything you find appropriate.

Need help

Commander

Gwafa Hazid, Profiteer is not a perfect fit as he wants to make a profit out of this. If anyone here has a better idea: Keep it coming.

Another option, although I'd like to stay in Azorius, is Angus Mackenzie

100 Cards

I didn't find enough cards fitting the theme. So suggest cards to me, to help fill the deck.

Removal

The idea of removal is normally to destroy or exile a creature. I want to find better ways like Pacifism. Nonetheless I included Swords to Plowshares and Path of Peace as they embody the idea of disarmament and better solutions.

Formatting

I wanted to put the flag of Ukraine as background picture but have no idea how to do that. Can someone help me with this?

Cards that didn't make the cut Show

• False Peace: We want peace not false peace.
• Archangel of Strife: War is no option.
• Archangel of Tithes: Build in attack improvement
• Happily Ever After: To fairytalish and needs workaround to function
