Fleecemane Lion is a must for this deck.

i think i wanna run 3 fleecemanes, but im not sure what to cut. Any ideas?

my suggestions is to drop the ensoul artifact's and switch the citadels out then you can get your 3 lions and decrease the amount of colorless mana lands. just a suggestion. I know a indestructible 5/5 for 2 is awesome but how often do you see it?

I agree with Bostrider. I run an artifact deck and love the Darksteel Citadel with Ensoul Artifact ; however, the Fleecemane Lion would have more synergy with this deck. Perhaps adding Flooded Strand and Windswept Heath would be helpful in thinning the deck and getting the mana fix you need sooner.

mogee Bostrider and UpperDeckerTaco thank you for the suggestions. Ensoul Artifact was seldom seen. I have swapped some things around. Added some basic lands and ordered fetch lands. Fleecemane Lion is back. I should have never taken him out of the original build. Deck runs way smoother and faster now.

Plus 1 just for the name! HAHA

Also, since you are running a lot of creatures and relying on them to stay alive (cough cough Prophet of Kruphix cough cough), another great card for this deck is Gods Willing. This card has been terrorizing the format still especially due to all of the removal in the format and huge or significant creatures who are a target for removal.

i agree prophet is quickly targeted but running dissolve and ajanis presence seems to work for now. idealy i like to take my turn while opponent is taking there turn. lol thanks for posting. any suggestion on how to work in feat of resistance? this deck is tight on space

I liked playtesting you deck so much that I built a similar deck for myself. Take a look and see what you think:

Have you ever thought about running Kiora, the Crashing Wave in this deck? I think it couldn't hurt to run some Dig Through Time and a couple Disdainful Stroke.

Crazytom32 Ive considered kiora, but im not sure how to work her in. Thanks for the suggestion though. =) also i like tiagems scheming better over all even tough its only a 5 card tutor. lol

Essentialy with Ephara, God of the Polis in play and Prophet of Kruphix Im taking 2 turns to my oppenents 1 turn. Other than me not hitting land drops on their turn this is a HUGE advantage for me. I'll do what i can on their end steps to flash in creatures so that when i begin my turn i will draw an extra card. Theoretically, getting devotion up to 7 isnt a tough stretch either.

How did you target your copied Stormbreath with Feat of Resistance since Stormbreath Dragon is pro white?

November 16, 2014 1:22 a.m.

Xrandox says... #18

Haha wow! Major brain fart. It was actually Titanic Growth. Im not sure why i put feat of resistance instead. It was a late night. Good save. Thanks lol

if your going to put a hydra in this one would be great since u have a lot of mana ramp Hooded Hydra

Great idea, but how does the morph cost work? how do i cast it face down?

November 20, 2014 6:13 a.m.

exalted_k1d says... #21

i did some research and to cast it face-down is like any other morph spell u just pay 3 colorless mana and pay the 3GG to turn it face-up. but i would rather pay the full mana cost as u can get more 1/1 snakes

thank you for your insight. the card didn't really specify lol
