Counters!

The basic idea here is to get out a few threats and keep pumping them at an alarming rate thanks to Hardened Scales.

With everything being at or below CMC, when one falls, it should be very easy for another to take it's place.

Every card in here has an interaction with +1/+1 counters, with the exception of Valorous Stance, which is just good protection and removal.

There's always room for improvement, and I'm very grateful for any comments or suggestions!

I'll keep this updated as I test and play, and hopefully we can get some good discussion going on!

As always, any comments/suggestions are very much appreciated! Thanks for checking it out!

Anafenza makes an appearance! — Oct. 26, 2015

Edit

After a bit of and lots of discussion with some friends, we came to the conclusion that adding a tiny splash of Black so that we could get Anafenza, the Foremost in here was a very worthwhile thing to do.

So we adjusted the mana base (still needs more tweaking, suggestions are very welcome!) and stuck 3 of her in here, and so far she's made a BIG splash every time she hits the board. Since this is an aggro shell, most everything is getting sideways almost every turn, so throwing her into the mix just makes things silly by throwing all the extra +1/+1 counters around.

Like I said, I still need help with the mana base, so any comments or suggestions along those lines (or anything, really) are very welcome!

**Thanks for checking it out and don't forget to**
