I created this deck for casual fun with cards I own. Suprisingly... the deck wins. Ok, not every time, but it actually wins. Now I'm looking for ways to expand the concept and build a better deck.

The strategy is "relax behind walls and wait for winning conditions":
- lust for war: enchant enemy creatures and defend
- Chandra Nalaar: as a finisher
- vent sentinel: lots of walls = lots of damage

Tricks:
- Lust for war + Perimeter captain: force the enemy creatures to attack and gain life. Just remember to block with all of your walls for LOTS of life.
- Use Drift of Phantasms to fetch better walls or Lust for war
- Sideboard Lightmine Field against swarms
- Spreading Seas to slow down the enemy and draw

Any suggestions?
