wrath of god is for losers :) jk, not really, good deck tho

[GodOfGamblers81690]

I run a very similar version of this deck. Mine has a little more control in it. Nice to see Light from Within getting good play.

[EpiCon3iZSicK]

Yeah , its good but that will never ever ever beat 5cc or Fearies. You can Make it better to beat Fearieas with more removal but it still wont touch 5c.

[philipdurbin]

yeah i got screwed against faries at state.whats 5c???

[smalltownmagic]

5cc = 5 color control

jacob

[philipdurbin]

yes it also sucks against 5CC but most other decks it does good

[VandalX187]

endless horizons would be great in this deck

[bobudess]

absolutely it doesn't help his strategy at all and he needs the extra land for all of those 5 cost critters.

[bobudess]

you know what pwns noobs?

BLUE, to be more precise old blue, but this is standard and blue in standard is weak.

ok take out those double striking gobs,

-4 gobs, +4 figure of destiny

now take out those sigiled paladins,

-4 sigiled paladins +4 knight of meadow grain.

- 2 wrath of god +2 plains

there deck fixed,

[philipdurbin]

i agree on all but the wrath of gods those save me countless times, and plus i have Knight Of The White Orchid to get me land. figures are too expensive and when you pump up the gob it hits them for double, yes knight of meadow grain is what i should have however i dont own any

[bobudess]

that makes sense, however how mnay time has you lost to mana screw? compaed to how mnay times you have won due to wrath, or you could even think of it as do you ever need aland and get a wrath.

knight of meadowgrain is not expensive, ill trade you 4 for those wraths of yours.;)

I understand not having FoD but they are awesome, you should check it out.

isn't orchid knight about 2/3rds the cost of FoD?

[philipdurbin]

ill put up the new version of the deck in awhile and Ian will post some games with it. i now never get mana screwed. lol knight of meadowgrains arent too expensive but right now im broke and i have no room in my new deck. orchid was 5 bucks when bought mine and i got one in trades and one in a pack

[bobudess]

i traded my prerelease foil orchid knight, but then i ripped 2 more in packs. awesome

[Specsquee]

Uhh take out the wraths of god. Your running white weenie, wrath has no place unless you are in a meta with tons of aggro and even then wrath goes to board if even that. Also like what magicplayer said run stillmoon cavs, they are amazing and wreck the mirror match.

[philipdurbin]

i ran wraths in my sideboard for state and needed them every single game. so thats why i have them in their

[Specsquee]

Even if you need them every game, then you can put them in after g1.

Also if you want removal, add in crib swaps or unmakes over wraths.

[philipdurbin]

I was thinking about putting some unmakes in but keeping the wraths lol sorry guys i love my wraths. but i will post my new decklist tonight so you can see the differences

[EpiCon3iZSicK]

Ummmmmm NO!!!!!! Wrath Clears the board and if you know how to play ww you would clear it every time. then use your crib swaps and unmakes for there late creatures. maybe one b4 wrath.

[Specsquee]

You dum

[MagicPlayor]

this deck needs 3 more lands and 3 or 4 stillmoons.

[philipdurbin]

this deck rarely gets mana screwed. i am looking into purchasing some stillmoons but other decks have gotten in the way

[philipdurbin]

great deck, the new version will be better

[philipdurbin]

The new version runs two Ajani Goldmane, four Divinity, two cradle of vitality and mostly the same other stuff
