Wow very unique deck, haven't seen a rally with allies lol. When I make decks I try to stay away from 5 colors but this seems to work. Possible name: Rally the Allies!

I like the Rally the Allies name. Maybe like, 'rally the ally'. I've had a lot of success with 5 colors. With this deck, I didn't go into red though. It just take extra work, but if it works it works lol. If you like the deck, could you throw me an up vote por favor?

You asked me to look at your deck, but it seems to work just fine. The land base seems a little all over the place, but it seems to work well with whatever you get. As for the name for a drain gain Ally reanimate mill deck...
ADHD the deck (Ally Drain Heal Devastation) or (Ally Drain Heal of the Dead). Also it implies you have multiple strategies with the deck. I like the name, but I also might just be dumb lol.

Cool deck!

Rally up your ally?

How about the name "Turn by turn, breaking you down"? It seems fitting

I found it difficult to name my Ally deck and ended up calling it Triple A (because it was All About Allies).

Since you have a lot of resurrection, how about Recall to Arms?

Or Unlikely Allies?

Uneasy Allies?

Allied Forces?

I think my favourite though would be something cheeky like
Co-Workers or Colleagues?

If you want something original don't call it "Rally the Allies". I see that used all the time.

This'll probably get called 4-color ally if it becomes a thing

It's a shame that pros don't make up cool names for their decks any more like Red Deck Wins.

Yeah, for real. But, as a semi-pro(ish) deck builder, I find it really hard to get a catchy name for my decks. There needs to be a pro-deck namer....

Tyrannosary The only thing about just naming it 4 color allies is that it could get confused as an aggro deck. But people may end up naming it that, if it becomes a thing. I still have to do well in a big tournament or go 5-0 on MODO leagues(I've gone 4-1 at this point)

That's pretty good, I think ally shenanigans is perfectly fine as a name.

Oh, I should throw some props over to JLenzen, he came up with a similar version of the deck some time around when I was working on this one (JLenzen , I'm not sure who's was first and if we helped each other on our perspective decks). His deck name is Allied Return [1st at SCG IQ Denton] and he got 1st at a bit scg tourney. http://sales.starcitygames.com//deckdatabase/displaydeck.php?DeckID=101340

you should look at the card March from the Tomb. in an ally deck, it can be better than Rally the Ancestors. it may force you to wait an extra turn, but it allows to revive more expensive allies in the process.

names for the deck:"regroup in death""united in death"" march from the tomb""in death, we stand"

"All-y do is win"?

Nice deck btw xD

You can't spell Rally without Ally!

Ally Encampment

MadKat says... #21

Thx SwaggyMcSwagglepants. I initially used Ally Encampment and Cavern of Souls, but the problem I was having was being able to cast Return to the Ranks and Rally the Ancestors with the double white.

i think that you can name your deck Marcus or something like that lol

MadKat says... #23

pochoclos...Marcus.....??? I'm so confused....

weter123 I like March from the Tomb a lot, but it doesn't bring back Viscera Seer or Hedron Crab, which are pretty important to finishing. (viscera more so) I have been throwing around another idea using march and Hagra Diabolist. The only problem is that if in modern I have to wait till turn 5, I think that put's me in more of a midrange feel, and I would need a way to keep from losing. Any ideas?

Dude, this deck is NICE!!!. Did you try adding Chalice of Life  Flip?

MadKat says... #25

Thx, feel free to throw me a thumbs up. I like Chalice of Life  Flip a lot; I've tried it in a bunch of pillow fort decks with varying success. I've found in this deck that I often don't get above 30 life and not win that same turn. So maybe not this deck, but definitely another deck.
