I WANT GATECRASH ERMEHGERD.
Oh, on a side note to anyone reading this, or following this deck, how do you think that new gruul planeswalker will play in a deck like this? Too slow? Too perfect?
Here is a link to DOMRI RADE

I think your deck would be a little too argo for Domri Rade to be effective enough to warrant playing the card. The +1 ability is nice, but the -2 might not help all that much unless you have a beefed up champion that was not so how destroyed already. I think that card may be more suited for a mana rank/mid range type of deck. Those are just my two cents. You can always try it out when the card is released and see how it goes.

No, i totally think you're right. Im not very confident about him reaching his ult easily for aggro decks to find him attractive. His +1 however, is very very very appealing. I wonder what kind of benefits could come from that.
I think i'll avoid considering him for this deck... because there are about to be some nasty boros soldiers, and some gruul warriors for the human arsenal.

Deck updated. Results and ponderings from wednesday night magic:
1) I win against other aggro decks easily.
2) I dont win against straight control unless they make a mistake.
Solution: Added card:Faith's Shield to the sideboard to try and prevent those clutch removal spells to save them the game. (I often get the control decks down to 5 life, so keeping that one Champion of the Parish alive to punch through will mean a win)
Also, i need to consider Searing Spear for a final punch to the face, or key removal.

I have a deck very similar to this one, but with no green. I have cards that almost mirror yours but all of them are WR, I find it helps with my mana issues. for instance I use Bonds of Faith instead of Rancor , and while the trample is really nice with first strike, bonds can be used to get that pesky Thragtusk out of the way. And while Mayor of Avabruk buffs your champion when it enters Honor of the Pure is less susceptible to removal.
I really do like your War Priest of Thune though. right now im running Cursebreak in my side for card:Curse of Death's Hold. And where did your Champion of Lambholt go?

Haha, you know... Bonds of Faith might be a little more exciting than Selesnya Charm .. actually... hmm...
If Honor the Pure was still standard, i'd run the shit outta that! Currently, i'm screwing with this deck left and right, trying to figure out how it will adapt to gatecrash. The mana will be fixed, i have no fears about running Naya, but certain creatures have to go, and certain creatures have to stay. At the moment, im trying to balance it all out.
This is my signature deck, so its the one i change the most. It might be different tomorrow. :P
Yes, War Priest of Thune is a surprising life saver. Detention Sphere , Spectral Flight , Ethereal Armor , Oblivion Ring , it stops a lot, and gives me the upper hand. Not to mention its a 2/2 human. :D
Champion of Lambholt has been a bit underwhelming in recent weeks. I'm not sure why, it was a game changer when i first started playing. Maybe the people at my store started catching on, and have decided to kill it when they see it. It just hasnt been good enough to keep in my deck as of late.

I just had the same idea today as I saw the Rubblebelt Raiders ;)but I have problems to find the right cards... because there are so many G/W/R cards that would fit in .... deck:guardians-of-asgaard-gatecrash-naya-humans-help really need some help...
even if you haven't your deck added yet I'll give you +1 just for the idea ;)

Without a doubt, +1 from me.
What do you think about Clan Defiance when it comes out?

Vos_Is_Boss says... #18
SOOOO excited. Although... it may or may not be more for Jund control/midrange.
I could edit this deck, make it a little more midrange, add some Huntmaster of the Fells Flip and keep Zealous Conscripts in the mainboard. Then maybe, when im not swinging for lethal every turn, i can throw the super clan bomb?
I cant say for sure yet... still SOOOOO much gatecrash to come out. I'm vibrating with excitement... 12930890 deck ideas are running through my head, but this is the one i want to build. Naya Humans-ish

Hellrider is better than Rubblebelt Raiders . rubble might be better if it had haste and trample but with decks that can have tokens for days rubblebelt has a chance of just never getting in. i would suggest removing Thatcher Revolt for Hellrider i know it goes out of tribal but it is such a good game ender.

I just updated my deck to something like a mid range version of your's deck:guardians-of-asgaard-gatecrash-naya-humans ... also I just saw the new Spioler "Frontline Medic" and I think it will work really nice in many decks! I have really got problems to get space in my deck and now many more nice cards appear :D

Don't forget farseeks as a staple to any deck holding green.

I have play tested against your deck a little bit, and a card I am a little indifferent about is Rubblebelt Raiders . I think with the way this deck is created, that by the time you have the four mana to play the card you could play more effective cards like Thatcher Revolt or Boros Charm to finish off the game or put your opponent in a very very deep hole. I think a card that may be more effective for the them is Frontline Medic . However, I do realize that you really want this card to work in your deck so I am interested in hearing how you would approach playing this card. Other than that, everything looks good. I will probably be making this deck for myself once Gatecrash is release because I really like it. The Boros Charm is such an insane card!

Frontline Medic is definitely a card to consider. I'm really excited about it. However, i really want Rubblebelt Raiders to work. It sits comfortably in the 4 drop, usually can swing in with haste because of Lightning Mauler s.
Usually at that point... its Boros Elite , Champion of the Parish , Lightning Mauler , Silverblade Paladin , and/or tokens attacking. That's a lot of counters, and a lot of threatening damage. They have to stop the now 6/6, or, the double strike Champion of the Parish who is also a 6/6 ... with Rancor . heh. Lots of damage fast is my goal, and i think i can dish out beast beatings with this Rubblebelt Raiders .

I forgot about the Lightning Mauler and Rubblebelt Raiders combo. That was definitely something that did not come up very often when I was play testing. If you did have one out waiting for it I agree that Rubblebelt Raiders can be a problem to deal with. It will be interesting to see how it works out when you can finally play the deck after the release.

Yeah, Its hard to run a 3 color before the last few guilds are here, that's why in this prototype, i have the gatecrash lands, to try and see how it'll play out. Mana was the only problem i had when playing this deck, when i got the land, it was a steamroll, however, that gotdamnredmana didnt always show up.
If anything, until gatecrash comes out, Selesnya humans is the strongest, most consistent human deck right now, or mono white. But why run mono white when you can run Mayor of Avabruck Flip ?
