This is a very low budget deck I was playing around with, and I've wanted to make a defender focused deck for a while. I could throw in more efficient ways to get black mana for Vampiric Link, but I didn't want to spend too much on it.

Using Defenders w/ Mana Generation in combination with Trading Posts in order to drop Spine of Ish Sah multiple times in a turn in order to destroy permanents and draw cards. Using that to control the battlefield until the point where I can drop Assault Formation and tap one of the mana generators to swing for lethal.

Tree of Redemption is in there for two reasons, as a high toughness defender who can hit hard with assault formation, and as an emergency card if my life is too low.

Vampiric Link is in here in order to deal with a high damage creature, or even just a low damage flying creature as I don't have any reach or flying to deal with them.
