This is a Jeskai Tempo deck with Monastery Mentor as the main win condition. Retooling the deck for new MH2 cards Dragon's Rage Channeler & Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Quick thoughts/reasonings on the deck:

This deck isn't meant to be competitive. I only play at FNM level, love Jeskai, and Monastery Mentor is one of my favorite cards. I built this deck for fun, and that's all it is for
Stoneforge Mystic doesn't fit in this deck as it is more aggressive than a Stoneblade deck
This is a low to the ground, tempo deck. That's why you don't see more expensive cards like Cryptic Command or Jace, the Mind Sculptor

Edit

So, a lot has changed since I last updated this deck. I only just recently started playing paper Magic again, and looking at the current meta, this deck needed a lot of changes. The Royal Scions unfortunately had to be retired, but a lot of power has been gained and I do think that Monastery Mentor can be a good closer when opponents need to deal with Ragavan & DRC immediately. I won't be able to put this new version of the deck together any time soon unfortunately, so this is simply in the theory stage.
