Deck discussion for Mardu Tokens

Firstly, much better. Much much better. You have great control with Hero's, Crackling Doom, Bile Blight, and they're all instant speed. Gives you time to setup your swing.

The only thing I don't like is Black decks that don't run Thoughtseize. Mardu Charm would allow you to search a hand or drop more tokens (but for a higher price than thoughtseize). If you didn't want to go the Mardu Charm route I'd drop 1x Bile Blight, 1x Sorin, all the Hordlings for 4 Thoughtseize. Even 3 would be fine, but I've found that 4 allows you to mull may'be once and have it.

Otherwise, if you don't want to run Thoughtseize, Drop 1 Sorin, 1 Bile Blight and add in 2 Sarkhan's and see how that works. Plus Sarkhan will help you out if you pull him before you see a Hero's Downfall for creature damage/removal.

Sarkhan also helps you deal with Jeskai Combo i.e. Mantis, etc. Hero's, crackling, Bile Blight, all work for you. That's a great combo of control/removal for midrange.

Run your deck how it is, and then think about if you'd benefit from the change's I suggested. Sideboard looks good. Throw in some Crater Claws and a couple more Utter End.

Mana base looks good. I'd drop 1x Battlefield Forge, 1x Caves of Koilos for extra Temple's. Or knock out 2x Nomad Outpost for more temple's.

I see why you want me to add Thoughtseize; it is really powerful, but I really want Hordeling Outburst to make Rabblemaster an even more serious threat. I'll play test once I get the cards I need and see if Thoughtseize should really be added.

Also, I was going to add Sarkhan, but for the purpose of this deck, I think it will be better to stick with just Sorin because he benefits the token horde massively while Sarkhan is just either emergency removal or another body for Wingmate Roc to bring in lifegain.

Sarkhan activates Mardu Ascendancy when he rollup-attacks, Sorin's tokens don't. Both are evry useful for this deck, but then again I have yet to get my paws on Sorin and therefore can't say much about him. I like this deck build better than the first one, though :P on to the next!
