I like your Deck so far. There are a few Cards you might want to think about.

Metallic Mimic: is something like a halfway Lieutenant. The stats are not that good but it is at least worth a try.

Oath of Ajani: Pushes your Team. in this build it would be something for the mid to late game.

Holschi I thought about Oath of Ajani but it seemed kinda janky. I really like the Metallic Mimic though! Makes Renegade Rallier even better. Any suggestions on how many to add in and what to take out?

Well, that is actually a tough decision. In terms of numbers I would suggest 2 3 Metallic Mimic.What to cut? Maybe Hanweir Militia Captain  Flip. Okay it becomes big but the Mimic makes every following play bigger.Another cut could be Archangel Avacyn  Flip.But that is just my opinion.

After playtesting my R/W human aggro deck I found Mimic seems weird in it's slot. Of course, it takes from other vital 2CC creatures. Particularly with humans cuz it kinda has a 2CC lord, Thalia's Lieutenant.

I liked it with red cuz 3rd turn 3/4 Hanweir Garrison is what I was looking for. It's also taken your Lone Rider  Flip spot, which sux. I just love the guy! If not running Rider it seems like Blessed Alliance could get cut or reduced for more value/vehicle creatures, spot removal, or even Always Watching looks good.

GW always need Always Watching , cause copter become banned.

About Hanweir Militia Captain  Flip... I love this card, but it doesn't fit in GW version. It's just slow, and never flip. Maybe Lambholt Pacifist  Flip will be better? Cause it get 3rd lord, so it's even more easy to attack without flip and can survive this -3/-3 sweeper. Or Maulfist Revolutionary that enter to battlefield 5/5 with mimic? or Hidden Herbalists for more speed.

Love this deck! I made a GW version as well, with a few slight differences. I could use some advice :) I'm Bringin' Humans Back.

Sac Evolving Wilds, then play Renegade Rallier to bring back Thalia's Lieutenant...

Glorious lol

Outside of Wilds I don't see any realistic way of utilizing Renegade. Unless your simply attacking into other creatures hoping someone goes to the graveyard. Particularly when players know what's coming. Doesn't seem really all that hot from what I see. Of course, there's sac a clue then cast for . But it seems very slow on the curve for what it's trying to do. Avacyn's looks like it would have far more impact and well-round the deck when I had first looked at this.

It does look good in the SB, however. Could be a meta call, too, perhaps. Heroic also seems more suited for SB. Blossoming looks like it would have more flexibility and speed.

With all the counters why not 2 Animation Module. The mimic's and lieutanant's will have it poppin?

Is there a reason you left out Lone Rider? It's a relevant creature, and seems pretty easy to flip between its own lifelink and Heron's Grace Champion.

January 20, 2017 2:12 p.m.

Sajomir The deck used to have 3 but they were actually harder to flip than expected. Since it flips at the end step the opponent always killed it beforehand. Of course there was always the Blessed Alliance gain 4 life trick, but I felt that Lambholt Pacifist  Flip was a much better card in the early game.

How is humans doing currently? How is the matchup vs "cat" decks with saheeli as well as how is it doing vs G/B delirium and counters decks?

January 30, 2017 5:24 p.m.

S0Godlike In my experience, the deck matches up well against G/B counters. It's basically a race to build a bigger board. Nothing the sideboard can't fix. As for Saheeli, I'm not sure. I haven't seen anyone playing the deck yet. Nor have I seen anyone playing human decks. Mainly, they play G/W Tokens.

January 30, 2017 6:08 p.m.

Tested the deck yesterday. Went 2-0 against G/B Counters, 2-0 against G/R Energy and 2-0 against B/W Fabricate. Unfortunately, I went 0-2 against Jeskai Control. More playtesting to come.

Seems like it has a bad matchup against the combo tbh.... not a whole lot to deal with it right now....if it gets banned then this deck could shoot up in tier list.

Blume17 says... #16

I disagree. If Authority of the Consuls is added and Thalia, Heretic Cathar is added, at least to the side board, then there are plenty of answers. Stasis Snare is an okay answer, but Authority or Thalia completely shut the combo down

I play tested my G/W Human Deck I'm Bringin' Humans Back against Jeskai Copy Cat and went 8-1 lol

I think the tougher matchup will be B/G Aggro/Counters/Delirium

Na the counters deck loses to Fumigate and Cataclysmic Gearhulk

Also as a possible side card vs aggro you can think about Gnarlwood Dryad delirium is not a thing your trying to get as opposed to the death touch. It trades with anything not flying or even killing you too much with trample.

February 3, 2017 2:10 p.m.

Against Saheeli I changed the sideboard up a bit so I can bring in Thalia, Heretic Cathar and Repel the Abominable to survive the big cat attack. Authority of the Consuls seems awesome too against aggro because they summon lots of creatures. Lots of good cards in white but only so many can make the cut. I'm gonna test Consuls tonight at FNM. See how it works...

HairyManBack says... #20

I like that suggestion. Narnam Renegade probably be a little better here.

Only Thraben Inspector seems low for one drop slot.

plummet instead of clip wings

February 11, 2017 7:36 p.m.

Made some last minute changes to the deck prior to Gameday. I removed the Declaration in Stone because they aren't as good as they used to be. Walking Ballista destroys it! Instead I added a 3rd Stasis Snare and a one of of Quarantine Field. As for sideboard, I added 3 Authority of the Consuls to slow down other aggro decks. Also, instead of Fragmentize I put a playset of Natural State. Thalia, Heretic Cathar got bumped to 2x instead of 3 copies so all these changes can be made but that seems fine. Pretty excited for tomorrow!

How did you do?

February 14, 2017 1:19 p.m.

S0Godlike Made top 8 and got the promo which was my goal. Got 5th place overall and just missed top 4 because of brackets. Lost only 2 matches, both being G/B Counters. It's not really a bad matchup it's just I had bad luck and got mana flooded. I will say though Walking Ballista and Aethersphere Harvester cause problems. Gameday taught me that Thalia, Heretic Cathar should be main board. She causes havoc against aggro and control.
