@dedo24 yeah the bots are only a placeholder untill I can get ahold of some greaves. Tamiyo, the Moon Sage is good for the tap ability but when it comes to her ultimate this deck isn't spell based so it would be lacking there so I think I will not go with her. Lightning Helix is already in there. Path to Exile and Swords to Plowshares are in the maybe board but I have been looking on what to replace for them. Playtesting will show more into that. Stormbreath Dragon and Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius do not fit the SOLDIER- Tribal theme as described in the description.

@bigmac116 I have thought about Knight-Captain of Eos I would just have to get ahold of one. Loxodon Gatekeeper is a big one I have been keeping my eye out for. Marshal's Anthem I have been considering but I have mainly put that on the back burner because it takes away from the artifact/equipment. But I may decide to work it in later tho. thanks for the comment!

Shield of Kaldra , Helm of Kaldra , Sword of Kaldra , Sculpting Steel . Instead of replacing Swiftfoot Boots for Lightning Greaves why not run both? Besides Hexproof in a deck built around targeting your own creatures in order to equip things is way better.

"I move Lightning Greaves from Sun Titan . I tap 4 to equip Grappling Hook ."

"In response I to the equip I Doom Blade your titan."

That doesn't happen with Hexproof. I don't know how much Lightning Helix and Warleader's Helix help you but I find them pretty underwhelming in EDH. They'd be much better off being a white removal or tuck spell. Condemn is great for putting opponent's commanders on the bottom of their decks for example.

Militia's Pride , Rise of the Hobgoblins , Commander Eesha , and Mentor of the Meek are some good soldier cards to look into. Commander Eesha is particularly great when he's equipped because you can't block him with creatures.

I think you should cut all of the karoo lands and really most of the duals in the deck. If you look at your mana costs you are super heavy white with a bit of blue and a light splash of red.

Scary stuff, +1 from me. The sword package is terrifying. Not a big fan of Flying Crane Technique, so I would replace it with Aggravated Assault.

@evncrbch- Not a bad option I'll try and get ahold of one. I put the Flying Crane Technique just to see the options. even without the equipment its kinda scarey to think of a flying 7/7 with Dbl Strike haha

It is terrifying, but in EDH there are so many more busted things to do with six mana =p. Also, Aggravated Assault can be used repeatedly, which is really nice. If you want to look into more extra combat effects, consider Waves of Aggression and World at War too. I think if I were to make another change, I would swap Elspeth Tirel for Chandra, Pyromaster. Card advantage is always welcome, and this is just one more way to get it.

I love this. I feel the same way about soldiers, it's my favorite tribal to build to. I run a pretty ruthless Tajic deck, and have a very similar decklist. My only real suggestions would be Purphoros, God of the Forge, to further abuse your formidable token production, as well as Iroas, God of Victory. To protect all those squishy dudes and help you get through. Hell, maybe even throw in an Ephara, God of the Polis for some card draw that rewards your deck's playstyle, though Ephara would be more for flavor reasons than anything. All the best, brother, keep on playing some honest beatface edh.
