Legion of Dusk (Ixalan Vampires)

Historic* Arena Tokens Tribal Vampires WB (Orzhov)

DRmagic2017


Sideboard


So this is my first attempt to create a Standard deck. I tried it on MTG Arena and it was fun. My result was Diamond Tier 1.

Basics. This is a typical tribal deck based on Radiant Destiny and Legion Lieutenant. Skymarcher Aspirant seems very nice as a 1 drop. I haven't tried Vicious Conquistador yet but Aspirant`s ability looks more preferable. Call to the Feast, Elenda, the Dusk Rose and Mavren Fein, Dusk Apostle are token generators.

Card advantage is very important so I've included Dusk Legion Zealot, Twilight Prophet, Champion of Dusk and Doom Whisperer (optionally) . By the way as soon as you get ascend Twilight Prophet + Doom Whisperer become a very nice pair.

Removals. Mortify is a great removal in current meta full of ennoying enchantments (say goodbye to Guild Summit, Search for Azcanta   etc.). Vraska's Contempt is perfect to deal with planeswalkers, Rekindling Phoenix, Arclight Phoenix and Gate Colossus.

Board wipes. I like Cleansing Nova much more than Settle the Wreckage (most of opponents are clever enough not to attack with all of their creatures). And yes you can deal with enchantments and artifacts too.

I'll be glad to get any feedback and recommendations (especially about my sideboard). Thanks in advance!
