No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Esper Tokens

How to Play

Fairly straightforward token spam deck. I prefer to drop anthems before spirits to avoid blowouts from Golgari Charm/Electrickery/Illness in the Ranks. Beckon Apparitions should be held in hand against reanimator and/or Snapcaster Mage.

Deck discussion for Sorin Spirits

Great deck! However, I would remove the Talrand's Invocation because the drakes will hardly receive any benefits from the other cards in your deck (notably Drogskol Captain) and throw in another Lingering Souls.
Sorin is also questionably useful in this deck.
Instead of Intangible Virtue, consider adding in Honor of the Pure (assuming it's still Standard Legal). Most of your creatures are White and it would really help with all of them. (Dungeon Geists' main usage is to lock down enemies and providing support, not so much as a main attacker.)
Geist Honored Monk, while being a GREAT token generator, is iffy here too. Maybe use some Phantasmal Images instead (again, if they're Standard Legal still); they have amazing synergy with Drogskol Captain.
Moorland Haunt would be AMAZING in this deck.

Beckon Apparition would maybe work best as a sideboard.

I have a pretty strong Spirit deck too. It doesn't focus on token generation though.

Sadly Honor of the Pure and Phantasmal Image are not Standard legal. I doubt Clone would do enough in this deck.

I agree there should be a 4 of Lingering Souls. The funny thing about Drogskol Captain is that it seems awesome to have an anthem on a stick, but if your opponent has spot removal in hand he's not that good for 3 mana. GHM at least gives ETB value even if she gets killed and tops off the curve nicely.

If you cast two Drogskol Captain, their ability gives them all hexproof. They're resistant to spot removal. The only thing that can hurt them are board wipes.
Clone/Phantasmal/whatever can be used to supplement in the event you can't draw two Drogskol. It's worked wonders in my deck.

But, it's hard to argue with the standard-legality. Haha!
I forget that the most popular format on this site is Standard. I'm a modern player, it's easier on my budget than Standard.
