Abzan "Deal with It" Mid-Range

This is my Abzan, Mid-range "Deal with It" deck.

This deck is geared around constantly putting out serious threats and forcing you opponent to react quickly, or get overrun.

Creatures:

Even the early drops (Rakshasa Deathdealer and Fleecemane) are must deal with targets because they only get more lethal as the game goes on.

By drawing out your opponents kill spells early, the hope is to leave them with few answers once Siege Rhino and Wingmates start hitting the table.

The Caryatids and Courser help the mana fixing quite nicely.

The Planeswalkers:

Ajani first two abilities are what counts. Roll up gives the ability to beat, gain life, and defend. First roll-down helps gets things rolling...even more so if you have the other Walkers in play.

Sorin is the shining star in this deck. Allows this deck to get crazy life totals in a short amount of time.

Garruk is the surprise one-drop. Helps against pesky Planeswalkers and just flat out wins a lot of games he hits.

Other spells:

Thoughtseize explains itself

Ajani's Presence provides protection to key creatures. A lot of opponents count on End Hostilities to combat this deck, presence put a damper on that plan.

Utter end is a nearly flawless removal.

Abzan Charm has killer versitility

Spear of Heliod is great in that it gets some of your creatures out of harms way early. Gets Fleecemane out of Lightning strike/Bile blight range, and Wingmates Roc out of Stoke the Flames range.


I will get unto my sideboard later, but I'm always open to suggestions. Thanks.
