Deck Description

This is the current iteration of my favorite deck. I’ve always loved tribal decks more so than concept decks. With this is a mix of both. Human life gain. This is probably the fifth reboot of the deck. Advice is appreciated. I am torn on having Thalia, heretic cathar in my main deck vs. Transcendent Master. Thalia gives me some more control over the board against fast decks, Transcendent gives me something to do late game with the ability to keep adding to my life total and a place to dump mana late game. Thraben is also an area of contemplation. I like the idea of having a couple of sisters out and gaining life each time he taps and with Thalia and champion of the board it’s life gain and buffs in those guys. Let me know what you think. Martyr of sands is also interesting with the ability to swing with a fully buffed Serra then two. Brave the elements is to swing uncontested or protect my creatures from spells.

Deck discussion for The Best Modern White Humans

I'm glad you have Path to Exile in the sideboard. I think you might want to run Disenchant for artifact/enchantment hate, and Rest in Peace (or Relic of Progenitus) for graveyard hate.

To answer your dilemma, I'd suggest Honor of the Pure. You might want to have stronger humans since red decks will always sideboard in boardwipes (Pyroclasm, Anger of the Gods) for creature-based decks like yours. That being the case, you might want to consider putting in some Mana Tithe.

Overall, nice tribal humans deck!

I agree. Return to the Ranks should help recover from board wipes a little bit. I've also replaced Boros Elite with Doomed Traveler. I was going back and fourth on them but in this deck I feel like I can Mindlesly Swing with him and if they kill him I I have a 1/1 flyer boosted by my blanket spells, that will gain me a small bit of life with Sisters. I also put Mentor in the Sideboard for the time being. I can't decide what to do with him. Even if I keep him in and use him until I draw more than 1 Honor or Spear. Although I did bump it down to two Honor's and added another Banisher Priest.

I've "perfected" the deck more. Mentor went in the sideboard for another Honor of the Pure and another Gather the townsfolk. It sucks Banisher Priest went away in lieu of Norn's Annex. I feel like it will do me better than Banisher. I have no problem casting it for 3 and taking the hit on life since I will be able to gain it back. My biggest worry is that the only mid game I have is the constant life gain with sisters and tapping the crap out of Thraben, and Return to the Ranks, and Norn's Annex. Is it enough? I don't know. we will have to see.
