Leader Swarm

by RahuKatsu on 14 June 2013

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Artifacts (4)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This is the deck I intend on creating, focusing on the swarming synergy between Talrand and Blaze Commando. And further more, since there are plenty of instants and sorceries, Goblin Electromancer and Guttersnipe.

Then, a variety of 'deal damage' spells, plus Divination and Talrand's Invocation.

And to top it off, a pair of Mirror Galleries to have the glorious potential of multiple Talrands out.


And the side deck contain's more 'control' type cards. Thankfully, due to Isochron's text, it's copies /are/ casted. This means that it would trigger Talrand, and Blaze Commando - for the damaging instants.

How to Play

Pretty much I intend to use Goblin Elec and Guttersnipe, along with Invocation, in the early game, using Divination to dive deeper into the deck.

As much as possible, I want to save the use of instants and sorceries until I get either Talrand or Blaze Commando out - or both.

Then, proceed to burn everything and get a massive swarm of tokens.


If you sideboard it, then it suddenly becomes a very powerful control deck, with counters, extra drawing, and extra mana.

Well if I remove Krenko, I would be replacing his Commands with Invocations.

Thus leaving me with 4 open slots. I presume you would recommend counters, but are we talking hard counters (Cancel) for 3, conditional counters (Essence Scatter and Negate) for 2, or perhaps the Izzet counter, Essence Backlash (for 4)?

I'm currently, after looking through these, thinking 2 Cancel and 2 Essence Backlash, as the Backlash works well with the Commando.

One thing I just thought of would be to trade out Arrows of Justice for a couple of Sticks.

I'm just looking for the possibility of having Blazing Salvo on a Stick! XD

Isochron Scepter. Most of the community, from what I've read, calls it a Stick.

I've been debating a Sphinx-Bone Wand or two; any ideas?
