This deck is based off the original Abzan midrange from the Khans Pro Tour. Due to the current meta changes I have changed the deck to be more competitive. Some of the major changes are running the Whip of Erebos and Doomwake Giants and brings a constellation factor to the deck to deal with Token and Aggro Decks. Addition of the Hornet Queens help keep your opponents large fliers from getting too aggressive This deck runs 6 Planeswalkers, the synergy flows very well with Elspeth and Sorin. Ashiok was added and main purpose is to continuously mill the opponents deck, creating a new threat to deal with other than the usual Abzan Creatures.
