Limitations!

Minimum 3 colors! (Can be 2 colors with a splash)

ahhhh!!!!
you should have told me it wasn't the main focus of the deck, however it still dosnt work because unless you get tibalt, reforge the soul is nigh on useless.



been wanting to make this deck for a while, but the cards didnt exist yet;


CREATURES
4 Champion of lambholt
2 Elesh-Norn, Grand Cenobite
1 Essence of the Wild
4 birds of paradise

SPELLS
2 increasing devotion
3 entreat the angels
4 lingering souls

ENCHANTMENTS
4 cathar’s crusade
1 parallel lives
2 Honor of the pure
3 intangible Virtue
4 abundant growth

LAND
3 gavon of the archangel
4 razorverge thicket
2 plains
12 forest
2 swamp

this is just a draft so any feed back would be very helpful

aha, no he is nowhere near the focus of the deck. and im debating on making it a heartless rites deck... see how that goes maybe... because with that much discard, why not rites it back?

Here we go! Little easier to work on these with the Gatherer update. I have a RGW Humans deck for the challenge, and a GW version as well.

The GW is more consistent, though the miracles sometimes show up in the wrong place. Thanks to the Avacyn's Pilgrims, though, they can work even if you draw them at a bad time.

I'd love feedback on either! The 3-color manabase is hard for me to balance, and in GW, the tempo is there, but isn't 100% consistently lethal yet.

my advice to your deck romearson is that you should remove tibalt and reforge the soul for more ramp or control because you will almost never get them both and it would be better to focus on getting more bombs faster
and add at least 1 norn, i sugest 2

i have another deck;
and i really want some advice on this one

Pre-release was a U/G version of this. If I knew how well these cards worked together, I would have splashed red in for the lancers and maybe conscripts as well (pulled 2 of each)
