Deck Description

So late one night I had an epiphany - what if I Collected Company'd into some Illusory Angels? This was during Origins spoilers, so I was digging around to see what cards I could use. The deck was taking shape, but I really wanted a blue two-drop to flesh the deck out. I hopped back on the spoilers site and, lo and behold, Harbinger of the Tides was there, literally discovered like a minute before I looked.

It's an aggro deck, but with plenty of tempo opportunities in Collected Company, Harbinger, Clash of Wills, Illusory Angel, and so forth.

How to Play

Maximize your mana usage until you Collected Company, and keep the pressure on! This deck is versatile, letting you play creature after creature efficiently or sitting back to ruin someones day with the Harbinger or Clash of Wills. Live the dream by cheating two Illusory Angels on the field! 4 mana for 8/8 flying power and toughness? Yes please.

There are a lot of cards I'd like to put into this deck, but I simply can't because of limited slots and the fact that most of them are 3 mana, which would bring the curve up more than I'm comfortable with. These include:
Bounding Krasis
Reverent Hunter
Courser of Kruphix
Yeva's Forcemage

Originally some delve cards like Become Immense and Treasure Cruise were in the deck, but there's no real delve fuel unless my creatures are being killed left and right, which in of itself is more problematic.

I'll be testing this out at my local FNM once I gather the cards I need. Let me know what you think.
