Ladies and gentlemen of tappedout, I present to you my Legacy decklist. Working titles include Birdmageddon, Birdemic: Shock and Terror, Birdpocalypse, but the guys at the shop tend to just call it Birds.

It's a White Weenie build, except just about everything flies. Then we pack in some of the wackiest and strongest hate cards that deserve to see more Legacy play - Humility, Suppression Field , and Armageddon.

Knight of the White Orchid is the sole exception, but he's got a solid body and really smooths out hands that want to hit 4 mana.

The list runs a large suite of anthem effects: the classic Crusade , the less classic but no less effective Honor of the Pure , the split-second flyer Celestial Crusader, and one last Angel of Jubilation to round things off.

Judge's Familiar is the newer, more awesome Suntail Hawk . He is efficient, evasive, and is a total pain to play around. Pretty much strictly better than Suntail Hawk , just need to watch out for those Red Elemental Blasts.

Squadron Hawk is Squadron Hawk. That's all that needs to be said.

Battle Screech is the old-school Lingering Souls. The higher mana cost is offset by the non-mana flashback cost, and also Birds are cooler than Spirits.

Spectral Procession is the most mana-efficient token generator ever printed. One of these resolving can win a game on it's own. It also happens to singlehandedly enable flashbacks of Battle Screech

This deck has a surprising amount of game. It's favored against Miracles and RUG Delver and has solid game against the other Delver variants and Lands. Combo matchups are on the weak side, but there's tons of good stuff in the sideboard that shore it up in games 2 and 3 - I'm something like 4 for 5 against ANT in the past few months.
