This is a midrange Mardu deck that was created to be able to main-board Surgical Extraction, and use them as efficiently as possible with the use of discard spells and Young Pyromancer. With the Surgical Extraction you can get rid of any problem cards that your opponent has, or if they are a combo deck, in game one you can steal a win by removing their combo piece. It runs a few Death's Shadow as a way to get a big creature late game, but doesn't play the full set because this deck isn't necessarily trying to do damage to itself to get Death's Shadow out early. Intangible Virtue is here to make any of your tokens really good, and to let them survive a Plague Engineer after side-board. There are only 19 lands because you don't really need that many lands for this deck to function well.

For the side-board there are extra kill spells, as well as stuff against artifacts, enchantments, tron, combo, and control. This deck's match up is the worst against control, so if you want to replace a couple cards specifically against them, feel free. It really comes down to what your meta is.

I have a greater description of why I chose the cards I did, and what the deck was created for in my blog post, with the link here: Blog post about the deck
