Its bad taste to link another deck here. However, I am tipping my hat to you. Thank you for your assistance. I have completed my "Sisters and Brothers" deck with where I think I want to take it. Thank you for your suggestions and communication. I wish I could add more + to your decks and you.

landstalker10 It's bad taste to spell my name wrong, too, but I shouldn't be complaining. I'm always glad to help people with their decks, especially when it's an area that I have enough experience to feel confident talking about.

Thank you for listening to my advice, and also doing your own thing with that information. At the end of the day, it's your deck, and I like the way you've gone with it.

Cool deck. Soul sisters is way fun.

DBCooper Indeed it is. It gets better the more you pimp it out. There are a lot of sideboard cards I haven't added yet.

Tried Mark of Asylum sidebar. I liked it against red deck wins

landstalker10 I'm going to be playing Secure the Wastes once it's legal. I'll start off with 1, and depending on how great it is, I may add more.

you need Aven Mindcensor

JexInfinite says... #9

s3xbomb It is significantly more powerful than Leonin Arbiter, but I'm waiting for the likely reprint in MM2. Since it will be uncommon, the price will drop.

As of right now I'm seeing 8 Ajani's Pridemates I'm pretty sure that's not legal so perhaps you could replace 4 of those with Suture Priest

April 18, 2015 3:19 a.m.

How did you do that to the background? I saw where it was coded through inspect element, but how did you put it there?

JexInfinite says... #13

gimlihog I just had cards in multiple categories. Suture Priest sucks. It doesn't do what you want to do in the deck. Causing the opponent to lose life is silly, because your creatures already do that efficiently. I want my opponents to be punished for playing creatures by bringing my life total higher, causing Pridemate and Ascendant to be seriously threats.

Treffy says... #14

I must say, all the love for this deck and this page is ruined by the music in the background not being 'Hey, Soul Sister'..

JexInfinite says... #15

Caechus Why the hell would I put bad music on my deck? Besides, this current one is relevant in both lyrics and theme.

April 23, 2015 3:24 a.m.

Treffy says... #16

The current one indeed is more relevant and better, the other one would've just been a bad joke, Soul Sister(s) and all. Not saying anything is wrong here, most definitely the most beautiful page I've seen in a while, the background looks perfect.

TheAlexGnan Having a painful manabase really takes away from the deck. You want to reach 30 life really quickly. Spectral Procession is a better card for the deck, because you don't need to splash to get 1 extra token for 2 extra mana.

It's probably better to run more Secure the Wastes, because it is just nuts mid-game. It will generate 4-5 1/1s at instant speed, often gaining 10-15 life. I may take out an Archangel and play 2 Secures.

Have you considered playing Launch the Fleet over Secure the Wastes?

May 9, 2015 8:44 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #19

AdmiralAbzan Definitely not. Launch the Fleet requires you to attack, and is sorcery speed, forcing you to tap out on your turn. You get the same soldier yield, except with Secure, you can hold the mana up on your own turn, and flash in 5 soldiers that can attack straight away. Launch can be easily stopped by a counterspell, or Cryptic Command tapping my team, but Secure the Wastes can be cast in response to someone tapping out. The instant speed makes Secure great.

Attacking with my 1/1 Soul Wardens is usually a bad idea when the opponent has board state, and if I only target a couple sisters, they can be killed at the beginning of my combat step to prevent me getting soldiers.

AdmiralAbzan says... #20

and why Leonin Arbiter over Aven Mindcensor?

Since it can be played earlier against RG Tron?

May 9, 2015 8:59 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #21

AdmiralAbzan Essentially. Arbiter comes down just before people want to start searching. Aven Mindcensor is no doubt the better card, and if I get one, I'll certainly use it, because Tron is not popular at the moment.

what about Nyx-Fleece Ram gives 1 life every upkeep and has a big butt lol which helps against mono red decks.

May 17, 2015 4:46 p.m.

JexInfinite says... #23

deltacobra Nyx-Fleece Ram doesn't attack, and we already have the insta-win against mono red decks. We want to win quickly, and Ram doesn't help with that plan. If aggro were a problem (which it isn't), Ram would be a good include, but as it stands, having a 3/3 Ajani's Pridemate which only gets bigger is a good deal. Stops aggro, midrange, and becomes a hard card to deal with for control if it lives.

We want to be playing aggressively, not defensively. Playing defensively will often lose you the game, because other decks do that much better.

deltacobra says... #24

True I run them in my red white deck which based around pumping Ajani's Pridemate using Soulfire Grand Master and massive burn spells and use Nyx-Fleece Ram as a early blocker but your deck it much more aggressive then mine. Nice job here.

Pyroshade says... #25

Probably a suggestion that's come up before, but i've had some very good success with, is replacing a few plains for Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx.

I run 4 Auriok Champion mainboard so it has slightly more relevance in my build, but i still feel that huge amounts of devotion is thrown out with soul sister, and that this helps make Archangel of Thune much easier to cast if drawn (and then with your Secure the Wastes witch i will definitely try out now xP)

+1 from me! keep fighting the good fight! :P
