This is hyper-aggro version of the white weenies decklist. Right from the get-go of Origins, I've wanted the weenies to rise but at FNM/Gameday they would end up falling flat. After seeing SOI's new toys, I believe that the time is now for weenie tribal to break into the meta.
The Breakdown:
Arashin Foremost: a 2/2 with DS for 4 isnt bad in the first place, but it's synergy with Dragon Hunter and Odric, Lunarch Marshal earns it it's place in this deck.
Archangel Avacyn: Giving our weenies indestructible is great, and flipping this has no drawbacks if we can sac them on our upkeep to Westvale Abbey
in response. Overall a great addition.
Consul's Lieutenant: This card... I can't speak enough about my love for it. Honestly, it's my favorite Origins card and I thought it was amazing from the moment I saw it spoiled. a potential 3/2 first striker with an anthem for just 2 mana?? It really doesn't get much better than this.
Declaration in Stone: This is our upgrade from Silkwrap. It hits more, and is a great pickup for removal.
Dragon Hunter: With many dragon control decks running around still, and while running Arashin Foremost, you REALLY can't go wrong here. A great 1 drop to start your curve with.
Gideon, Ally of Zendikar: Makes us 2/2 tokens, becomes an indestructible 5/5 weenie, and can give an anthem emblem. 'Nuff said, really.
Hanweir Militia Captain: I really like this card because of it's potential. Get some counters on it before it flips, and it can really take off. The interaction with Consul's Lieutenant/Thalia's Lieutenant here can't be passed up.
Make a Stand: This is one of my twists. I call it the " Oh sh*t, he's playing black, time to watch for languish" card. As a side note it also gives a nice little anthem as a bonus!
Odric, Lunarch Marshal: This is our baby, our bread and butter, our finisher. His interactions with Arashin Foremost, Hidden Dragonslayer, and especially Omendahl, Profane Prince are hilarious.
Secure the Wastes: Here as an EOT play for a finisher/to feed Omendahl. In general a versatile card, at least a 2-of for sure.
Stasis Snare: This is how we deal with anything big. Just exile it! Problem, no more!
Westvale Abbey
: Really just here for it's flip, but a great late game card, without a doubt.
Thalia's Lieutenant: Counters for me, counters for you, and you, and you... COUNTERS FOR EVERYBODY!!!
