Deck Description

One of my better decks looking to make it a bit better. its meant to be an agro green white with a back up plan of a "wall". I first came up with the idea after first seeing privileged position about 7 months ago I've been working on it since and came up with this decklist. I started it as a edh deck with trostani as the commander but changed it into this later on since no one around played edh at the time. Selesnya with the mind of izzet!

How to Play

As i stated its meant to hit hard earlier in game but if your put into a position where you need to be defensive there's a combo and it stops anything i could think of by getting avacyn sigarda the privileged positions the leyline and palisade giant out as well as choosing any color with iona and painters servant otherwise its straight forward aggro

Awesome! I like this deck a lot. It's well structured and could cause problems for almost anything! Iona and Avacyn are great! Hard to remove. :)

Thanks! Its a deck i actually have and i consider it my baby. While a lot of it may cast for 3 it runs very quickly and handles everything but counter spells which is easy enough to fix with gaeas herald but don't see the point in adding it because of the pipers. you have any suggestions for it?

honestly, I think that I'm going to buy it and then see how well it runs. I already run a similarly based mono white deck. I'll get back to you. :)

K, I bought it and it runs fantastically. Cost me about $350. The only problem it has is my onslaught/rakdos deck. But I fixed that by throwing in banisher priests and imposing sovereigns for the sidedeck. :) It works great.

Also out of curiosity personally believe it would do well in the tournament setting as far as modern?

The rakdos deck would pop out monstrous hasty creatures really fast, and burn everything that I played. I stopped them wiht abolishers, sovereigns, and first strike. Cuz if I can't get the double strike mirran crusaders out fast enough, then I'm dead.

And I have a feeling that with a few perfections from practice, this overall idea would do magnificant in modern. In fact, I'm bringing it to state this year for Washington to see how it does. :)

Hmm maybe a playset of silence would help as well for sb
well I'm guessing you feel it was worth the money then and I'm glaf you do. though even if you didn't you got sime really awesome cards anyway! Mind tellin me what you had taken out of the sb for the sovereigns and such?

For the sideboard I've switched out ajani, one cultivate, one great sable stag, both sundering growths, and primal command. I threw in 2 revoke existence to replace the sundering growths, 2 grand abolishers for the really annoying decks, and 2 imposing sovereigns, though I might go with a blind obedience instead of one of the sovereigns. I'm still working on it. :)

Also adamantion karametra is meant to replace heliod to thin the deck as well as ramp if you got the sideboard as well.

Now, I´m not as good with Modern, but from what I can gather, a ps of Æther Vial could really help this gem along =) You could 'cheat' in some of those 3CMC's in, just before it is your turn, and boom, you´ve just gained an uncounterable summoning sickness-free beast. Ready for the kill =)

Believe me if it wasn't about 15 bucks. a pop for them id get them. I'm actually on a budget and got a load of shock lands and traded them off for a lot of these cards. i wasn't trading for value because i wanted this built i was trading for usefulness. i ended up selling an aether vial away for the avacyn the vial wasn't as helpful as it should have been to me. it was blown up the second turn and people just keept killing it every time i played it so i opted to take it out for another piper. Oddly enough they let the piper stay compared to the vial. I'm sure it's only because id tajke the damage over blocking with the piper but it stayed on the board and still does over the vial also it would still take only one turn more to use the piper as the vial has to "charge". u do see your point though but the group i play with runs too much artifact hate after the incident where there was 178 platinum Angel on one persons field...cough cough..

Thanks Black fire! I'll throw Aether Vial into my one. It seems like it will help a lot. :)

This is a very scary deck haha. All five swords !! I wish I had at least one of those.

Perhaps Silverblade Paladin though ? He makes a nice addition to a deck. Good early game creature and an even better utility late game with one of your strong angels.

Believe me i know why your suggesting it but i was running it before i got the mirran crusaders but it could be putbin yhe side board over the two titans for sure. I just have to find them again since i traded them off. Also it would actually soul bound with a smaller creature because i don't usually end up getting anything real bug before I'm lethal. As for the swords feast and famine is invaluable to the deck letting me get more out faster. its my personal favorite sword for the untap ability.

What is it's theme ?

That's the problem with un-themed/ non-tribal decks that are just powerhouse cards thrown together that themed/ tribal decks don't have.

What is your main win-condition combo ? Name it that. :)

How do you think my knight deck would do against this? Just wanted to know because I want to have a good tournament deck and this deck looks pretty good. Or do you think my control deck would do better? :)

When i say this its going off my friends knight deck which is quite similarto yours. i tend to win about 3 of 4with him because of the swords of light and shadow or war and peace makin it to where he can't block ajd mirran crusader hits twice activating the swords twice. but othet times i just demolished he has a few mor buffers in his than you. but with your deck i think it would be a very interesting game but i think i would pull ahead again though thats going off my friends deck

0

As for which would be better it would likely be your control. I'm sure you have counter spells makin it harder to drop the lower casting cards early game

Maybe put in more elvish piper because if you just get an emrakul in your hand it does nothing for a wile, and there are enough things in your deck to use it on otherwise. please check out my new deck and tell me if it would do well in a modern tournament, I've never played in one and I don't want to buy a deck then to find out it doesn't work. :)

Ill takr a look but as to your suggestion emrakul is there as a way to prevent being milled. not so much as a win condition. i almost never draw him and play him only as I'm winning. already the deck is actually built around the 3drops and the abilities they have letting them beat the skull in of the other player. i keep my hamd fairly close to seven so i can discard him if i don't get the leyline. Realistically he's gonna be coming out and be be sided for another aether vial to speed the deck along.

Oh! I never thought of that! But good idea, I think that should be the way all mill deck protection works, maybe put in ulamog or kozilek instead so you can cast it if you get 10 or 11 mana from primeval titan. :)

Lol its to the point that everything has a purpose and its hard to think what else to do. frankly kozilek would be most beneficial in here for the draw he gives you but i don't have any. Plus I'm working on a legacy tournament deck as well and its a fortune and a half lol on top of finding the last cards I'm changing in this. but I'm not fond of tue legendary eldrazi for much other than the shuffle. too high casting anf too overpowered even with the high costs. When i use them its typically like this

It runs a lot better than the rather shotty sample hand on here. it has a couple problems yet but not many at all. Itd sideboard needs a couple changes to it yet but other than that I'm only looking for a couple things and waiting for a tournament around my area.
