Deck Description

Greets, well, this is my new white weenie - Samurai Tribal.
It wouldn`t be a tribal deck, if most of its creatures(like in this case) wouldn`t be samurai, right? So we have loads of honorable and aggressive Samurai that get even stronger and more aggressive thanks to all the equipments.

The deck is based on stalling the opponents board with Pacifism and Arrest, to make way for your Samurai to eat away at your opponents life total.

Do note, this is a casual play deck, tournament quality decks rip this one to shreds!

Deck discussion for Samurai Tribal

The first card that comes to mind when thinking of tribal is Door of Destinies.

I have always wanted to make a good samurai deck but have never been able to pull one of that is competitive. I gave up for a while but I would like to try again soon. If I come up with anything great i'll let you know.

I agree with Door of Destinies, its great with tribal.

White knight and Kami of hope seem a little out of place in this deck. Kami is effective though so it may be worth keeping. Otherwise I would consider replacing it with Holy Day or something similar.

Also I would replace Arrest with Oblivion Ring. It has the same mana cost and is way more effective and can target things other than creatures.
I would replace Pacifism with either Journey to Nowhere or for Path to Exile.

I would also try to fit 4 Kitsune Blademaster he is one of the most effective Samurai IMO.

Good luck!

Thanks for your reply!

White Knight is pretty much a filler here. I have nothing to replace him with, but it`s not like there`s anything better anyway, it`s won me many games so far, because of its Protection from Black.

Well, Kami of False Hope is a nice turn 1 drop followed by a Bonesplitter on turn 2 and swing for 3. It`s barely a target for removal, and if it is, you can sac it to prevent combat damage. Plus, the deck is already running 16 other spells, it`s better to concentrate the rest on creatures. Which brings me to the reason of these spells:

Samurai themselves are not that great, they`re aggressive 1-4CC drops with Bushido, which is active only if they get blocked or if they block something. Which is why there are equipment cards that boost their power outlet, Konda's Banner being the best of the bunch.
Pacifism and Arrest are just my personal preference.

This was once a RW deck, but i ditched the red, for it was not that effective.

Anyway, i`m looking forward to what kind of Samurai deck you come up with!
