So, I got tired of my Trostani & Rubinia decks, and decided I wanted to make something more interesting than the two of them were.

From this unholy brainstorming session came forth Rafiq & The Many! While the deck is focused around making tokens and gaining life, Rafiq & The Many also has a heavy focus on defense for the sake of offense.

The main combo in the deck is Rafiq of the Many + Sublime Archangel but the possible infinite of Fathom Mage + Horizon Chimera + Sunbond is nothing to be sneezed at either. In addition, Darien, King of Kjeldor + Trostani, Selesnya's Voice cause any damage that would be dealt to you to instead make a huge army & gain you a bunch of life.

All in all, I just want the deck to be really fun. And capable of doing really massive swings when I'm good and ready to swing. If you have any comments, suggestions, or you just like the deck, please feel free to say so! Thanks for reading!
