This is one of my favorite creations. I always wanted to make the Mardu Hordes work but with just KoT it wasn't happening. Then with the FRF release I can finally bring the Mardu might to the table. Complete with one drops all the way up to five drops. (Zurgo Helmsmasher)
THE MAINLY IMPORTANT FOR WINNING CARDS:Brutal Hordechief: Really badass no matter what you say. Combined with
Mardu Ascendancy
for some serious damage.
Mardu Shadowspear
: Another good combo card for Brutal Hordechief (adds that extra 1 damage to every opponent) and can make for some troublesome early game damage.
Orc Sureshot
: Now, I know what your thinking, "Really you wasted card slots on
Orc Sureshot
? i mean are you serious?" If you're thinking this then your like 85% of people I mentioned this to. Before you complain in the comments look at these next two cards and you'll see why
Orc Sureshot
is included.
Mardu Ascendancy
: You can never have too many goblin tokens. Just not possible. With constant generators for each attacking creatures, thats alot of creatures entering which means alot of -1/-1's from
Orc Sureshot
especially if I have more than one out. Also, doubles as alot of attacking creatures for Brutal Hordechief.
Mardu Strike Leader
: AWESOME!! AWESOME!! AWESOME!! F**KING CARD!!! Not only does it possess dash, but pumps out 2/1 tokens for only 3 CMC. Which is another drop for Sureshot. Especially with more than one on the field. Too bad those warrior tokens don't attack for Brutal Hordechief, but hey, gotta have defending guys sometimes.
Mardu Woe-Reaper
: Another good 2/1 one drop. Usually really makes its debut in later game when there is dead creatures about but still a good turn one or two play.
Alesha, Who Smiles at Death: I don't know about you guys but I love this card. Especially with all of my one drops/cards with only a power of two. Not only can I bring back cards like Bloodsoaked Champion
+
Mardu Shadowspear
+
Mardu Woe-Reaper
, but they are also attacking for more life lost life gain with Brutal Hordechief and -1/-1 debuffs with Orc Sureshot fro entering and bringing more goblin tokens. A WIN-WIN!
[[Zurgo Helmsmasher: More like a second Win-Con. but can be a hard match to fight when Hero's Blade is attached to him for free as soon as he hits the table.
Hope you like it!
