This is a deck I partially developed on my own and fixed up with a friend. This is also my first standard deck. This deck started out much heavier and with a lot of excess creature cards that I did not need. This shifted into more of a tokens deck than anything since I originally put it together.

Updated this to RtR Standard. Sad to see some of my M12 stuff go away but that is the nature of standard.

The two biggest changes are adding in Cackling Counterpart and Rootborn Defenses. These act in pairs to continue to make creature tokens out of either the Drogskol Captains or the Dungeon Geists. It's still very much about tokens, specifically Spirits. Mana still curves at about three, but unfortunately I am running a lot less one-drops so it becomes more crucial to get a Doomed Traveler early on to keep tempo.

It's not too much of a budget deck anymore now that I've added in Hallowed Fountains. I'm also considering at least running one Geist of Saint Traft. I've been told by a couple people to do so, and I think I can almost justify it at this point.
