Cool list! Pirates are cool and I drafted a list for Kenny awhile ago- pretty great character to build around, and I like what I'm seeing here.

(If you wanted to check out my list, it's Kenny's Fleet.)

This deck is meant for a good time, not a competitive time. Your power level (unless it's being determined by the old scale) seems very much like a bracket 3, at best.

I personally believe this deck functions at a pre-con level of power, which would be bracket 2-3, dependent on how you choose to look at or believe in that associated system.

This deck is a lovely project and I like what you've done! If you'd ever like feedback to make it more competitive please feel free to tag me in a comment. +1!

Upvote entirely because I will be saying "Gargle my Yargle" at least once today, as a retort to anything that displeases me.

It just takes time and practice. don't forget that there is a play-testing function within the site! Good luck.

Mana dorks, ramp, and draw a card.

Explore,Nature's Lore,Farseek,Rampant Growth,Kodama of the West Tree,Sakura-Tribe Elder,Three Visits,Thirsting Roots, etc.

Consider lowering your 6 costs to about 4 total in the deck.

Consider lowering your 5 costs to about 7 total in the deck.

Consider lowering your 4 costs to about 9 total in your deck.

It's all about scaling, and when you effectively use ramp to push your late game, you do those things faster, and more consistently. the newly printed Abzan Monument is a cool example of how to consistently grab what you need if you do in fact want to keep casting those big costing spells. In order to do that, you must consistently ramp.

You mentioned that this was your first build all on your own so that was why I thought to give some feedback, I wish you the best of luck! +1

Feyd-Rautha you've got a really creative mind for these builds- I appreciate your craft a lot. I think that you and Balaam__ would have a lot to talk about, considering how you favor cards you have and you've started in '95. I look forward to engaging with you some more in the future!

Oh now this was quite lovely to see. There's a plentiful mix of cards both old and new here. I get the feeling and emotion evicted from seeing them all put into one pile, there's like.. a really significant charm to this deck. I liked what I saw from the old-school Taigam love with Budget One Punch but I couldn't refrain here- this is F@#$%ing awesome what you've done. I mean cards like Fountain Watch which are lost to the eons are just.. true treasures in my opinion.

This guy wants to see Broodcaller Scourge.

It's funny you should mention the Hammerhead as I have made a submission within the last few hours for it. I think this deck functions pretty well without such things, and if you're going to go the CEDH route you likely haven't seen anything too.. terribly important. Unless I'm missing something blatantly obvious, and if that's the case.. this deck is about to be 6x as good.

on a serious note though, how does one format their description in such a compelling, marvelous way? Your primer is outstanding and the formatting choices you made have made it all the more enticing.

I love this concept. Since you've made such a strong shot at it and the theme is on point like that.. I feel compelled to try a similar idea with different characters.

the fact this list is currently suggested as 91% casual is criminal. The playtest I had led me out with Brushland and Children of Korlis, where we turn our Ripples of Undeath after getting out an Overgrown Tomb. It's a choice opener that feels-good but then I went ahead with our mill; got nothing of consequence but I did draw into a Sakura-Tribe Elder "Steve"! I had Betor hit the ground a turn early, all in all it felt at least on par with what a Pre-con should be able to do. And definitely better than the pre-con they intend to put out. You're doing great work, here!

Poly_raptor canna pet that dawwwwwwg!

I have a deck based around Ayula, Queen Among Bears that might interest you. Albeit, it's Rule Zero. However, I really like it and think you would too. "Can I Pet that Dog?"

this is so great! the exact kind of deck I'm hoping comes across my feed. +1 for concept.
