Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

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

This deck makes your opponent think one thing while your planning on doing something else. Thus the name...

How to Play

Perfect opening hand: 1 Blind Obedience or Imposing Sovereign, 2 silence, 1 hero of Iroas, 3 lands.

Turn 1: land and silence at beginning of opponents turn
Turn 2: Blind obedience (if opponent plays something its tapped)
Turn 3: Hero of Iroas at beginning of opponents turn silence
Turn 4: Hopefully you have picked up Ordeal of Heliod, or Gift of orzhova, or Brimaz, King of Oreskos.

Deck plays itself as you go.

P.S. Most opponents assume you are playing a white weenie deck so they play accordingly, then think you are playing a life gain deck, by then its too late and you've brought out Archangel of Thune sprinkled with banisher priests for control.

The things I don't see your deck having answers for, and I don't know if it needs them as I haven't played a deck similar to it, are control and burn decks.

Against these decks I have found card advantage and counter control to be helpful

So, for burn decks I would suggest: dark prophecy. I am thinking you will gain more life than you lose.

For control decks I would suggest: Duress and thoughtseize. You can use these to prune your opponents hand of counter spells, and troublesome enchantments.

But I really like the deck. Let me know if there is anything else you'd like me to take a look at.

Thank you for the suggestions I need to put together a sideboard. I usually gain more life than they burn. Definately will try for control decks. I have had a hard time vs red black aggro if they can get me in the first 3 rounds. Haven't lost yet

i have a very similar deck, i get stomped by aggro decks, i would add some lands 20 seems pretty low.
one problem i keep running into is black's removal, another is green's speed. maybe i should start over.

There was a really good article out a little bit ago about know what type of deck you have, and that sometimes it helps to sell all out one way or another with your deck.

This deck as I see it, is a creature/token deck, that has control elements splashed in, and usually to good effect.

However, you are not going to out control a control deck.... So I am guessing those elements in your deck now end up being kind of useless against them.

So that being said, I would try selling out to the creature token side and try to overwhelm their control. Against a control deck I would try removing: blind obedience, ordeal of heliod, imposing sovereign and celestial flare. And possibly banisher priest depending on if you need the removal.

In their place I would up the number of creatures, especially the enchantment creatures, as you will be able to use them to enchant your creatures with heroic later in the game.

specific cards to entertain:
Vanguard of Brimaz
Phalanx leader
Eidolon of Countless Battles
Ghostblade Eidolon
Hopeful eidolon
Nyxborn shieldmate.

I am not sure how much it will help, however it is what I would try.
