Puresteel Equip/Knight Tribal Deck

Legacy Aggro Knights Mono-White Tribal

LordCyrodil


A deck I recently put together that revolves around an overall knight tribal rushdown with Puresteel Paladin pumping out the equipment.

Explanations:

Puresteel Paladin is the bread and butter of this deck. He makes equipping a breeze and is a drawing machine.

Aether Vial is also a HUGE card in this deck. It allows me to pump out a lot of creatures while making sure to spend mana on equipment.

Knight Exemplar is a no-brainer in a knight themed deck. Making Puresteel Paladin indestructible is perfect.

Mirran Crusader is a heavy hitter in itself, but in a knight themed equip deck? Watch out. His double strike too strong.

White Knight is a cheap knight with protection from black. Extremely efficient as he renders a lot of removal useless early game while I hold out to get Knight Exemplar on the battlefield.

Batterskull is huge. Enough said.

Basilisk Collar is a 1 cost deathtouch and lifelink which is great to scare off enemy attackers.

Lightning Greaves is great on vulnerable creatures early (until Knight Exemplar is on the field) and later it still acts well as a way to give haste to any new creatures brought out on to the battlefield.

Sword of Vengeance is a perfect equip to make any creature extremely beefy.

Bladed Bracers are great for my knights theme as all my creatures except Batterskull(dual purpose as an equip as well) are humans.

Dispatch is a 1 cost exile target creature for most of the game. Best removal for my deck.

Path to Exile is an all around excellent card that works the same no matter how the game is going with artifacts.

Ancient Den is great for getting metalcraft up while also maintaining some white mana.

Quicksand adds some simple creature removal.

Any suggestions are encouraged.

  • Fixed mana issues and made my deck purely knight (removed tutors)
