Deck discussion for Merfolk Trickery

Cool tribal deck. It is weak to flying, but with all the Islandwalk and unblockables I'm guessing you aren't worried about that. Talrand, Sky Summoner would fit your theme and be one way to address that if you decide to. I often play with decks this size, which do tend to be a little less predictable. That can be part of the fun, though. The same can be said for the variety of cards. This looks like a lot of fun to play. Enjoy!

Thanks!

Yeah, as far as flying goes, generally I'm simply doing more damage to them with my buffed islandwalk creatures than they can do to me, cause flying generally isn't nearly as mana efficient.

Talrand is one of my favorite cards, but I found that as this is an entirely creature focused deck, not that many drakes would ever come into play with him.

The size of the deck is actually a result of mill decks, which were especially effective on this deck because of the focus on buffing other merfolk. Often times I would lose cards that I really wanted, but because of the extra cards, I can always be relatively certain I'll draw into something.

That makes a lot of sense. I wasn't thinking about the spell requirement for Talrand. That would be a completely different deck. And mill decks. Ugh.
