Obelisk of Urd isn't legal in tiny leaders. Nothing in the format will give a permanent +2/+2 bonus for a single card, but you could always run Glorious Anthem or Adaptive Automaton

scopesightzx do you have a link to a ban list that mentions Obelisk of Urd?

I have checked everywhere and can't find one.

It's cmc is 6. It's not that it's banned, it just isn't allowed by the cmc greater than three rule

Ah sorry.

For some reason I had in my head that it was 3 CMC.

My mistake.

Norin the Wary looks like a perfect fit here

A personal favorite of mine to include in any EDH deck with red and white is Sunforger. And while it may not be at its best in Tiny Leaders, it's still a very neat card. Some of the spells you can tutor up: Path, Bolt, Helix, Terminate, Crackling Doom. If you're not running any instants, it doesn't really do anything, but I think it's still worth considering. It's especially strong in conjunction with Mistveil Plains.

I'd definitely move in Mark of Asylum considering your propensity for damage boardwipes and save your critters. And you can't break up the set, so go ahead and add Jaya Ballard, Task Mage.

I'd cut Intrepid Hero -- considering the format (not too many 4power dudes), and your vast array of destructive powers, I wouldn't imagine any 4power critters you couldn't get rid of in other ways.

I'm actually getting rid of Mark of Asylum to make way for some cards that give all Creatures -1/-1, so I can deal with True-Name Nemesis.

I like Intrepid Hero where it is because I'm yet to play a deck that can't make its Creatures grow quickly. It's particularly good for pinning down Monastery Mentor. Then the -1/-1 cards can help to wipe away the 1/1 Monks.

I appreciate the feedback. Gets me thinking.

It's terrific card, but wouldn't I need to change this deck a lot to get the best out of it?

Like, wouldn't it go best in a deck with Squee, Goblin Nabob as the General and a bunch of other Goblin Creatures?

Of course he would be best optimized in a Krenko kind of build or if you even had Hordeling Outburst and Dragon Fodder, but he does a descent amount of lifting himself and pairs well with Impact Tremors

What would you take out for him?

I'm also considering putting Cavern of Souls into the mix, naming Humans. For that I don't think he would be so good.

Argeaux,
I've been thinking about your little Treefolk problem. Maybe some cards that can nerf Doran's ability, like Darksteel Mutation and Song of the Dryads? Or maybe a little Blood Moon?

Sorry, but I don't have enough experience with Tiny Leaders to have recommendations on what I'd pull nor why.

Derp, I know Dryads is Green. I meant Nevermore.

clayperce those are interesting suggestions.

Blood moon would hurt me too much, I think. I need access to White and Black to activate Alesha, Who Smiles at Death's ability.

Nevermore and Darksteel Mutation are interesting. I'll do some tests with those.

You know, after thinking a bit about this, I think Brimaz, King of Oreskos might be better than Goblin Rabblemaster.

I will test both.

I love Nevermore in the 1 vs 1 environment, but you have to be OK getting the stink eye in response. Also, I've thing Goblin Rabblemaster over Brimaz, King of Oreskos if you are only going to fit one because he works with Alesha, Who Smiles at Death's graveyard recursion.

MoJoMiXuP I've squeezed both Goblin Rabblemaster and Brimaz, King of Oreskos in, but have had to remove Guttersnipe in the process.

I'm not sure if that is the right move because, as you pointed out, Brimaz is more difficult for me to resurrect.

I'd love to put Nevermore in but have absolutely no idea what to remove for it.

I'd appreciate your thoughts.

I kind of feel like you'll get more out of Blood Artist than you will Prism Ring.
