rcrimmins, not for this deck man. That card steals the show for B/W tokens, but it's not really where this deck wants to be. This deck is very interactive and more midrange than its B/W counterpart. B/W uses that card plus bitterblossom to close games, while I use cards like Brimaz, voice of resurgence, and Sorin to close games. Also, in green I get Gavony Township too which helps to push my tokens over the top. It just feels like I have better things to be doing with 2 mana. Don't get me wrong, the card is bonkers, but for the right deck. Honestly, there have been so many edits to the deck since Eldritch Moon that the list is starting to feel tighter and tighter. It's starting to feel like the only room left is for strictly better upgraded with future printings. I've had this deck for a while, developing it all the way from Fate Reforged pro tour season when it was just a netdeck B/W tokens list thanks to Stanislav Cifka's performance with the deck making it to top16. Believe me when I say that I have tuned the hell out of this deck and know what it wants to be doing. Thanks for the suggestion tho man! I get questions about that card a lot, but when I show people the deck in paper and play them, they sort of get the reasoning. Think of this deck as an Abazan Midrange deck with a Token theme, not necessarily Tokens with Abazan colors.

I had actually been thinking of Sorin, Lord of Innistrad, but your still make a good point about the board wide lifelink being better than say one creature with lifelink. Still, I'd love to make my own version of a list like this one. I'll have to get back to you on that.

Hey, working on a similar list myself. Is there a reason you chose Brimaz over something like Monastery Mentor? and no Intangible Virtue?
