SJWs (Standard MTG Deck)

This deck will beat the misogynistic snot out of your opponent. It's downright brutal. Have something sexist to say? Mardu Shadowspear is right there to cut you down. Thinking about doing something transphobic? Better think twice or face the wrath of Arashin Foremost. Led by Chief of the Edge we are the SJWs.

All fun and ambiguous sarcasm aside, this is a Competitive BW warriors deck for standard play. Can be modified slightly in mirror aggro with Chief of the Scale/Bile Blight, swap in Thoughtseize for control, (and Merciless Executioner if they're running hexproof dragons).Athreos, God of Passage and Return to the Ranks can be used to protect against board wipes.

I'll have to see how much play dragons get to consider playing Dragon Hunter over Mardu Woe-Reaper/Mardu Shadowspear.

Edit

Coming back to this after some thought. BW Warriors is good, with the potential to be great. But it just wont always play that way. Arashin Foremost is only going to time herself perfectly with Chief of the Scale and/or Blood-Chin Rager so often. As an aggressive style deck it can only go so far and will lose out to the more streamlined top-tier decks more frequently than it wins when all the pieces come together just right. However! If this deck can take ease slightly on the gas pedal and throw in some quick spot protection, I think it will really find the niche build it needs. Somewhere between aggro and midrange, but not dead-smack in the middle. Just a tad off of the aggro side to ensure your aggressive board stays... well, aggressive. I've done some testing with Gods Willing and it is Excellent. It provides cheap protection for Arashin Foremost, while also sometimes allowing her to punch through and do double strike damage to the dome, with a bonus scry (which is much appreciated in this build). I've dropped the more expensive removal (Hero's Downfall) down in order to make room for 3x of Gods Willing and I've also bumped the deck up to 22 lands for more consistency. This may change.
