Deck discussion for Yisan, The Wanderer Bard

I usually grabbed Gyre Sage as a 2-drop. It should be tappable for half a dozen mana quickly.

Soul of New Phyrexia was my favorite 6-drop because it kept me safe from most board wipes.

Hornet Queen was my 7-drop because it gives the most bodies for the Craterhoof as your 8-drop.

Panglacial Wurm can be cast while you're tutoring from Yisan.

Primal Surge makes a good alt-win condition.

Thanks for the suggestions! :)

I'm building this deck on a "tight budget" so anything to make it more consistent is a good thing in my opinion.

Personally, I feel like Scryb Ranger is the ideal 2-drop with Yisan, since it chains amazingly well with Sakura-Tribe Scout. There may be a place for it in the deck anyway -- only testing will tell.

I debated between Hornet Queen and Avenger of Zendikar. I chose Avenger because it has potential for even more tokens. Hornet Queen is capped at 4. AoZ then Yisan into Craterhoof Behemoth is absolutely unstoppable.

Soul of New Phyrexia seems like a very strong piece of tech. I'll strongly consider finding a slot for it.

Panglacial Wurm is definitely powerful, but with Yeva, Nature's Herald I already have "instant speed" creatures. Not to say he would never fit in the deck -- I just have no idea what I'd cut for it.

Primal Surge is amazing. I can't believe I didn't think of that!
