Deck Description

This is my illusion build. Probably pretty standard fare, missing the expensive norms. (automaton and image) But it gets me by. I'm open to suggestions.

Deck discussion for Illusion Tooth and Claw

I would take out Unsummon for Vapor Snag (same thing but also does 1 damage to the opponent). Also, summoner's bane seems a little costly for countering a creature even with the 2/2. I would take those out, but its up to you. I think some drawing would help you out so you could add some preordains or ponders (Brainstorms if you have them), the faster you get the unreals the better. Gossamer phantasm seems like a decent card that could be added too, if you have the room. Cancel seems pointless since it won't prevent your creatures from dying since they are already targeted and mana leak seems like enough counter for such a fast deck, unless you wana go counterspell which can be annoying to other. Phantasmal dragon would also play a good role here since a 5/5 with flying is pretty nice. If you do decide to binge a little 2 Images would be a great addition.

Thank you! I had totally forgotten about Vapor Snag. Next time I go shopping, I will probably do that! I also hadn't considered the point you made about the cancels. I'll have to retool based on that.

I had actually taken out the Dragons in favor of the Mist recently to keep cost low, but I'll be keeping that in mind.

As far as the Summoner's Banes, I was really torn about it. I don't like spending so much on a counter, but it helped the Mist enough for me to keep them. So far they've been playing alright.

I will consider those Images! Such a good card!

Thanks for the input, you've given me a lot to think about here.
