Mid-range warrior deck.
As can be seen, I've gone for a build according to the theme that warriors should put in the work solo, or in smaller groups. Taking the strongest soldier out of every army and making them serve as special forces.
Any advice or comments are greatly appriciated.
1 Drop
To get off to an early start,
Bloodsoaked Champion
gets straight out there pounding. Combined with a
Mindblade Render
the deck will start drawing cards.
Thoughtseize
Is also a sweet opener to enable the warriors to get traction, by elimitating early resistance.
2 Drop
As this deck is running a rather life draining mana build,combined with cards like
Thoughtseize
and
Mindblade Render
, mneanwhile aiming at mid-game.
Glory-Bound Initiate
comes in handy to stay above water, comined with
Always Watching
, the card becomes an aboslute life sustainer. while also dealing plenty of damage.
Blood-Chin Rager
Is just a generallt sweet card to push through to the opponent, and I guess that every warrior tribal build should have one.
Arashin Foremost
will furthermore help him survive.
Mindblade Render
Is a sweet body, warrior and card draw mechanic. Staying above 3 Def, he is also resistant to most early sweeping spells and acts as a decent blocker.
Chief of the Edge
To add some punishing power, and grinding the other warriors weaponds just a little bit more, he does the job. Synergises especially well with
Arashin Foremost
.
Bile Blight
Good removal, with the possibility of somewhat clearing the board for the warriors to swing through.
3 Drop
Arashin Foremost
The bread and butter of this deack. Strong solo card, while boosting either strong warriors, or help fragile ones survive battle. Enables some carzy damage, and synergises with the theme of warriors fighting either solo or in smaller groups.
Drana, Liberator of Malakir
Is not a warrior, but damn what a card. Flying first strike and able to dodge sweeps, while boosting the warriors before they hit, due to first strike. It goes well with the theme of beeing strong Solo, while adding that little extra to the other warriors to make them unstoppable. She also looks like a warrior.
Always Watching
As mentioned before, it is the enabler for Glory-Bound Initiate to really put in work, and getting cards like Arashin, Mirri and Blood-Chin above the early sweepers. Boosting the defenses as Life Points will be pose a problem.
Obsidian Battle-Axe
Is a mid-game enabler, and loves to be wielded by the squishy
Combat Celebrant
. More than one is superflous, but one axe to escalate the aggerssion pace mid game is an absolute necessity.
Banishing Light
Good old banishing light, for somewhat secure removals.
4 Drop
To finish of the decks, I was looking for some of the strongest warriors out there without breaking the mana cruve.
Sorin, Solemn Visitor
Brilliant planeswalker with this deck, adding some more damage and lifelink, while synergising with both Jazal through it's tokens, or Kalitas with the Sacrefice ability. Forcing the opponent to sacrefice isn't a bad against creature with protection from colours.
card:Angel Warrior If drawn will provide that added fun in late game.
That was my simple explanation for my thoughts on the deck. If you have the possibility to play, please refer the results to me so I can optimize it even further.
