Ah, didn't see the budget before. Sorry

However, the Rally mechanic is good because it not only affects Allies, but all of your creatures. So you don't have to necessarily limit yourself to only playing Ally creatures; a few non-Allies wouldn't be bad at all. Consider Alesha, Who Smiles at Death for a quicker gameplan, Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit for more midrange play, or Scab-Clan Berserker / Hidden Dragonslayer for the sideboard.

Reckless Cohort is decptive. it seems ok, but there are better allies to run. hes the first cut i would make. Alesha, Who Smiles at Death does seem like a good idea because she can trigger rally and works well with Expedition Envoy

Have you considered Firemantle Mage? I think that menace could really be useful in your deck. Also, I personally like Resolute Blademaster for its double strike Rally but I completely understand if you aren't feeling the cost.

MangaVentFreak13. I didn't think of firemantle for this deck, and resolute I like as well, but his cost... Bleh, I would replace him with Munda honestly, I am not the biggest fan of him. Lol, though what might you recommend be dropped in place of the Firemantle and or Blademaster?

chasm guide? giving haste consistently is nice. Also, the white retreat consistently gets allies triggers if you are flooded

I used to run Munda, Ambush Leader in my build but found that it was putting a lot of cards that I needed on the bottom of my library. It can work if you don't use its ability every turn, but then you may as well use something else.

I've been having a lot of success with Citadel Siege, naming Khans. You might want to have a muck around with that.

Argeaux, LDM393, MangaVentFreak13. I adjusted the deck, let me know what you think of the changes! Thank you all for the suggestions!

i think 2 retreats will be fine. also i think the scabs are more sideboard against non-creature spell heavy decks, but thats just my thought

I think the only problem that is really hindering the deck, is lack of card draw.

October 5, 2015 1:21 p.m.

I like the changes! Question on the sideboard though, why are you playing Felidar Cub?

I would put Fate Forgotten in the Sideboard instead of Felidar Cub.

ThatSimicGuy says... #15

Felidar Cub was mainly an answer to certain enchantments from the new set, whilst being a decent bear. But Fate Forgotten is simply better.

Also, something i just noticed, all of your removal is conditional. Valorous stance only hits power 4 or greater and ride down hits only blocking creatures. You may want to try wild slash or even swift reckoning as additional removal. if you have it, exquisite firecraft would be ideal

Swift Reckoning over Valorous Stance? Maybe?

But the stance also gives indestructible, so there's that. Ride Down is a must have, playing this on Cockatrice, and every time I've played it, it's been relevant.

LDM393 says... #18

I'm just saying maybe not as a 4 of, maybe 2 swift, 2 wild, 2 valorous stance, and 2 ride down just as a thought. Or even cutting down the defiant strikes
