“Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the WALLS. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night’s Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.”

―The Night's Watch oath

Bring Arcades, the Strategist, commander of The Walls, to the battlefield and make the defenders fight!!

V. 1.2.1 {W}{U}{G}

Cards per turn

Cards' categories

Commander

The commander of the deck, and main source of sinergy, transforming our walls into attackers and providing card draws.

Destroys

Sources of destruction for the opponent's permanents and main threats.

Draw

Main sources of card draws.

Ramp

Cards that make easier to generate mana.

General Lands

Basic and general lands to cast our spells. Still needs tests if 36 lands is enough, too low or too much.

Synergy Walls

Walls that make the main sinnergy of the deck.

Unblockable

Means to make the attacking walls unblockable, since many of them don't have fly or trample, so the main source of damage will be unblockable walls.

Utility

Buff cards to make our walls stronger to attack, commander redundancy or protect them against board wipes, destroys, etc.

Version backog

V 1.0

• Deck created.

V 1.0.1

• Removed Swords to Plowshares
• Added Protective Bubble

V 1.0.2

• Removed Forest
• Added Murmuring Phantasm

Testing less mana for one more wall to avoid flooding.

V 1.0.3

• Removed Naturalize
• Added Return to Nature

Strictly better option for the same price.

V 1.1.0

• Removed Ready / Willing, Teyo, the Shieldmage, Heroic Intervention
• Added Swiftfoot Boots, Lightning Greaves, Blossoming Defense

I learned that Ready / Willing is not allowed in this deck, and Teyo, the Shieldmage was acting as counterplay, so I removed it for the fun sake of the table.

Added the boots to bring protection for my Commander when he enters the field. Heroic intervention is too expensive $$, so I replaced it for blossoming defense for now.

V 1.2.0

• Removed 3x Island, 3x Plains, 2x Forest
• Added Glacial Fortress, Simic Growth Chamber, Sejiri Refuge, Temple of Enlightenment, Temple of Plenty, Graypelt Refuge, Selesnya Sanctuary, Evolving Wilds

Lands adjustments.

V 1.2.1

• Removed Bant Charm, Mentor of the Meek
• Added Reliquary Tower, Abzan Beastmaster

The tower is necessary due to the ammount of card draws. Abzan beastmaster seems to have more consistency.

Roadmap

• Test out the mana cards. Organize them, bring more or remove.
• Search for some cheaper options for expensive cards (above 3 dollars) except the commander.
