BFZ Bant Graveyard groove

Standard* Control GWU (Bant) Midrange Ramp

Rockstick


Sideboard


Maybeboard


Hi, this is a prototype deck I came up with while looking at BFZ spoilers. Now I had time to test it out and to fix it a bit, but there is still work to do, so suggestions are gladly welcome!

Now, the idea of the deck is to control your graveyard and tap/untap stuff with Kiora, Master of the Depths and Retreat to Coralhelm (which can give you a ramp advantage)

Nissa, Vastwood Seer   helps for the land drops

Dromoka's Command offers protection and buffs

Ojutai's Command adds a counterspell and can revive your Warden of the First Tree

Why the White? Simply because it allows the deck to run Dragonlord Dromoka and Dragonlord Ojutai, which helps at control and adding Wincon

TESTING:I will try to play Jace, Vryn's Prodigy   instead of Warden of the First Tree

Also, I may re-add a second Blighted Woodland

Edit: This deck changed a bit from the original goal, which was to just ramp to cast stuff.

While playing and testing this deck, I got crushed by aggro and Abzan, so I changed stuff and now it's better at defending itself, with Stasis Snare and Display of Dominance to get rid of those Rhinoes and Tasigurs

And also thanks to Bant Midrange which gave me the idea to add emeria shepperd

After more thinking and consultation with my friends, I came to realize that Kytheon, Hero of Akros  Flip isn't really fit for this deck. So to replace him, I'll put Hangarback Walker and remove a Dromoka also, since you can untap it with either Kiora, Master of the Depths or Retreat to Coralhelm
