Deck Description

Gideon Jura aims to stall your opponents into oblivion with his signature creatures and a bag of tricks from Jace's arsenal. This deck works great in conjunction with an aggressive teammate in two on two battles.

How to Play

Tap or enchant your opponent's best creatures to clear a path for your troops. Feel free to add more copies of Gideon or even a Tamiyo if you have the cash.

Imposing Sovereign, Due Respect, and Gideon's Lawkeeper start you off on the right foot, and as a bonus grant near immunity to haste bum rushes.They are also tons of fun after a Cyclonic Rift, and they even stall lands. Sleep is another good tap card. Sunblast Angel, Dream Leash, Gideon's Avenger, and even Gideon himself take advantage of tapped creatures. Ghost Touch and Hands of Binding (and Gideon) provide more tapping. Fog bank rounds out the arsenal.

Sleep + Sunblast Angel is a fun little combo.

I'll look into it.

Edit:
I looked into it, and it's awesome. Nice suggestion! I'll replace pacifism and arrest with it ... they don't really fit into the tap theme anyway.

Should I use a removal spell (like path to exile), silence, or God's willing? Or should I just put in 27 lands because the mana curve is high? Suggestions are appreciated.

24/25 land should be fine. Path is nice. Might look into brave the elements instead of god's willing as most of your creatures are white.

07 great suggestions.

Path to exile is in. Read it very closely ... and you see tap!

It works very well against the expensive searchland decks because they run few, if any basic land.
