Creature (15)

4x Call of the Conclave

Creature (2)

2x Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage

Sorcery (3)

3x Alive / Well

A play starting from the GW Selesnya precon mucked around to be rotation proof, or almost, and designed on a budget. (Read: I only had 1 VoR.)

I dropped most things from ISD/M13 so as to keep my wheels turning moving into THS.

Sideboard is a complete WIP. Other than Sundering Growth which I think will be nicely strong in the enchantment heavy THS, I'm not sure where to go with it.

From maybe: Avacyn's Pilgrim -> Sylvan Caryatid post rotation. A little ramp makes sense to try and get to 4/5 mana faster, and gives me a little more presence until I stabilize. I like the Caryatid as they tie up the board better and will provide fixing as well. If they went in, I'd drop the 2x Ready / Willing, and 2x Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage.

Mainboarded Pilgrims — Sept. 3, 2013

Edit

Switched the 4x Avacyn's Pilgrims to be mainboard. Moved the 3x Alive / Well to maybeboard. Removed 2x Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage. Increased Ready / Willing by 1.

This puts me at 4 sorceries, leaving me all creatures and instants with the exception of Call of the Conclave, which is a cheap token. Having the options from Ready / Willing gave more combat tricks, and made things feel much more fluid by waiting til their turn to do a lot of my play. I felt like I never found the time or mana to activate the Guildmage's ability, so all he ended up was being a vanilla 2/2 that I couldn't populate, and felt like a waste of a play most of the time.
