Those Solemn Offerings in the board seem a lot better as Divine Offerings in this metagame.

[QUOTE=Scotty1700]Okay so I've constructed a pretty solid knight deck and I was wondering if there were any ways I could improve it...maybe you guys can help. The only thing I can think of that would make it better would be including some fetch lands but unfortunately I'm on a strict budget and cannot afford any at this time. Any suggestions?

It's solid white with no landfall why do you need fetches. Maybe Iam truely a noob at heart but that will mess with Emeria, ping you, and will do what exactly what to help. DEAR GOD I WILL SAY IT FETCHES IN MONO & NO LANDFALL IS STUPID. no offence I say same thing to guys I play with. Please reply why are fetches necessary. Im not trying to be a prick but why. Sorry if that statement was douche bagish.

You should tone that back a little Momir, it's a little extreme. I can understand being peeved by people putting fetchlands in every deck they construct, but that was a little much.

Well yeah there's no landfall, the fetches are to thin the deck of lands. Also I don't have much when it comes to MB so....Solemn offering is what I've got.

fair enough on the divine offerings. As for fetchlands...the math isn't really worth the life loss unless you decide to run steppe lynx/adventuring gear (or both) If you decide that you really want the fetches, run some combination of those. If you decide to go for adventuring gear, run Stoneforge Mystic. That card is insanely good, even if you're just getting adventuring gear. If you're willing to move your deck into a midrangey thing (more 3-4 drops and equipment really), then you can tailor what the stoneforge fetches for (sword of body and mind instead of gear, etc.) Stoneforge is just a really good card.

Stoneforge is certainly good...but I just don't see $17+ a piece...I see maybe 5. For what it does it just isn't THAT good, I mean I'd personally rather run 4 sword of body and mind (to keep it budget rather than the like $30 SoFF) than run one sword and 4 stoneforge....I don't see why she's that good.

Stoneforge does a lot: it tutors for whatever you need at the time, it makes it uncounterable, and it provides a body to equip the equipment to. It's the all-in-one package that makes it really good. Oh, and flashing in the equipment EOT dodges any possible sorcery speed removal for the equipment (Oblivion Ring in Extended....yeah that's it). Card is good.
