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

I really like this ability, so I decided to build a deck around it.

Deck discussion for bushido

With 25 lands in a 60 card deck with a close to balanced mana curve, you're going to find yourself drawing too many 'empty' cards and slowing you down. Considering most of your curve is =4, consider dropping your land count down to 23 (by removing 2 mountains) and then try to add in R/W duals (in any form affordable) to help prevent color issues in the early game.

However, you may even find better luck by removing Red from the build all together. The few red cards you're running with aren't going to make or break your win/loss percentage. Righteousness might be a nice add here for defensive support, or, basic control in the form of Swords to Plowshares. Just a thought.

Hope these ideas help. Should you get a moment, I welcome any comments or criticism you can offer my Black Hole deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=345027). I'm trying to make it as final as possible.

Thanks!

Thank you for the feedback. I took your advice and removed red from the deck, and it's working much better.

I would remove Vow of Duty and Indomitable Will and add 4 Honor of The Pure. Remove Candles' Glow and add Brave The Elements, and remove Samurai Enforcers and add Adaptive Automaton. You could consider Aurification instead of Ghostly Prison, so you can focus more on attacking. Finaly, as any tribal deck, you could add some Cavern of Souls. Hope it helps, please comment my deck if you have time, http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=347794. Also, if you check my decks, y have a Ninja deck that you can find interesting, cause you play with Kamigawa block.

Thanks, I used all of your suggestions except aurification, because I don't mind creatures attacking me, just as long as the opponent has to pay for them.

Sorry, was re-editing it and accidentally hit a 3 instead of 4 for brave the elements
