Deck discussion for Defender Deck

Nice build, I was wondering, would Aether Membrane be a good fit in here? Use it in conjuction with rage nimbus and lust for war and bounce your opponents creatures back.

Thanks so much! And yah I considered using Aether Membrane it is a good card and the combo you subjested is something I never thought of ^^ The reason I didn't use it is because I suppose I was just comparing it to Rage Nimbus and I decided Rage Nimbus was better.

How about Rolling stones to give all your defenders the ability to attack?

Thanks for the subjestion but I think that Rolling Stones only gives walls the ability to attack. I could be wrong though but I originally wanted to use it in place of Animate Wall but I don't think it works for my set of creatures because they are all defenders but not walls...

I think with the new rule defender = wall. Check out the rules, I did a search myself before as I also have a defender deck and was thinking the same as you.

Sorry my previous comment was in error. It seems rolling stones does not work but the wakestone gargoyle you have listed does. Nice deck though I do like it.

If you put in en kor creature to redirect damage to stuffy doll that would also work as a good defending creature and it would also make your opponent more hesitant when attacking you in fear of you redirecting that damage back at him via en-kor creature plus stuffy doll.

Check out some of my decks if you have a chance. The one I posted is the en-kor stuffy doll combo I mentioned.

Awesome, I love wall decks.

One idea is to throw Luminarch Ascension in here--damage rarely gets through to you, so you'll likely end up with lots of angels. Also, I would 4x the shield-bearers...they get nuts when they stack.

Also, another win con I use in my wall deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=90235 if you're interested to see it) is Overwhelming Battlements + Fireball. That alongside Vent Sentinel wins it. This could also be accomplished with Axebane Guardian. This requires splashing green, but there are many good defenders in green, so it's worth looking into. The fun shenanigan I add here for making lots of defender tokens to help OB and VS is Wojek Embermage + Sprouting Phytohydra--use the embermage to ping your phytohydras, which doubles them all. Have fun!
