Just recently got into magic about a month and a half ago. Heard a friend talking about a Jeskai Monks deck his brother uses so I decided to look up something like it. Ended up building this deck so it's not perfect by any means at all, but I love the play style of it and friends I've played have had quite a bit of trouble playing against it. Thanks for any feedback!

I revamped this deck pretty much from scratch, only really keeping a certain few creatures and some spells. The first draft of this deck had way to many creatures, and barely any spells or instants which made a big part of this decks play style non-existent. With that being said, I put way more instants in the deck for when I get to play Narset, Enlightened Master and get to use her passive when she attacks, and hopefully while having both of the Ojutai Exemplars out, casting a ton of instants for no cost, and tapping creatures of getting lifeline and double strike.
