So based on just a quick glance at this deck, I have a couple of immediate thoughts. I feel like Kabira Vindicator seems like it could be too slow, I don't like how you have a single Elspeth, Knight-Errant , and idk if this deck actually needs Breath of Life . So those might be the first edits I would see about making.

I agree on the Kabira Vindicator , I just don't know what else to put in.... and Breath of Life is totally worth it. Unless, you or anyone else could help me find a better card to replace it. I would like 2 Elspeth's but I only have one atm.

I want card suggestions!!!

Ummmmmmm I might catch you off guard with this suggestion but consider replacing Kabira Vindicator with this far more aggressive knight. Stillmoon Cavalier . He is deceptively great.

Also I came to the conclusion your deck doesn't need Elspeth

AdrinaDream says... #6

Yeah, it doesn't. I just don't know what else to put in. Maybe, just like three Stillmoon Cavalier for the two Kabira Vindicator and the one Elspeth.

what about Hero of Bladehold instead of Kabira Vindicator and/or Elspeth. With one or two Honor of the Pure on the battlefield Hero of Bladehold would be quite a threat.

You know... That is really good. I think it might be about time I do that. I have always not wanted to because the soldier tokens. I know that may sound like a dumb reason, it's just I don't know it bothers me. Haha. Maybe, in the near future Hero of Bladehold will be in my deck.

...The near, near future....

In my own knight deck, I usePhyrexian Metamorph (other clone effects work too; I just run the metamorph cause its faster to cast). Why? To double up on Knight Exemplar . It works pretty well.

AdrinaDream says... #10

That is a really good idea, you are doing that, meanwhile I am waiting to draw my second Knight Exemplar . Thanks for the idea, I will take that into consideration. :)

I know this might be a weird question since your still playing this deck, but do you get enough mana, because I suggest tacking out a Dawn Charm and adding another plains.

AdrinaDream says... #12

Everyone says 19 mana sounds like a little bit, but I am telling you all I get is mana. I have the hugest mana problem. I have 19 mana and to be honest, I get like 9 per game. If I take out a mana, I will get 2 per game. If I add one, all I get is mana.

(I am going to do us all a favor and say mana again, mana. hahah)

But thanks for the suggestion. :)

Since you have 8 exile cards (Path to Exile and Oblivion Ring) I would suggest less of those, maybe cut it down to 4, and add cards like Accorder Paladin, Alaborn Cavalier, Cloud Crusader, Knight of Obligation, Knight of Sursi, Knight of the Holy Nimbus, Knight of the White Orchid (In case you need mana), Knight-Captain of Eos, Order of the Sacred Torch, Paladin en-Vec, Paladin of Prahv, Pentarch Paladin, and White Knight. I'll leave it up to you if you which, if any, you want to add in your deck. Personally I would have 3 Dawn Charm, 2 Oblivion Rings, and 3 Path to Exiles, and just replace the balance with knights.

So now between TrumpetsforKings and I you have...Well probably a lot more cards than you want haha.

March 4, 2013 9:15 p.m.

Hmmm...so many good flanking cards...ideal...

AdrinaDream says... #17

Wow, wow, wow. So many cards! I really like Riftmarked Knight

xzzane says... #18

Riftmarked Knight would be good. But also make sure you take a look at everything else. Flanking can be a good mechanic, and Knight of the Holy Nimbus could really get on someone's nerves. In addition, Accorder Paladin can really boost your other knights, as well as having decent power at the same time. Sorry if we gave you too much to absorb haha. It might take you a while to decide which ones you want to include.

I had Knight of the Holy Nimbus In my deck for the longest time. It is a great card. Thing is, I am at a point to where I have no idea what I should do. Honestly, this deck has been on a winning streak for so long. You can even as ShanKspeare and UndeadUnx. It just doesn't loose. (unless I get mana screwed) I see that is has a lot of control, yes. But man do they do wonders. The only control I would consider taking out is a Oblivion Ring or two. Honestly, you know what I am surprised you guys didn't suggest me taking out is Day of Judgment. Riders of Gavony wouldn't work well enough in my deck because of the like 7 Kithkin I have in here. And wow, I used to have Accorder Paladin in here but I took it out for some reason. Looking back at the card it is very good. (Because of the fact I have buffs like Knight Exemplar and Honor of the Pure that raise his toughness.) Hmmmm so much to consider and think about.

I am now considering maybe taking out Stillmoon Cavalier for Accorder Paladin. Hmmmm, I don't know. What do you guys think about that. I feel it would fit in more because I like buffers. My favorite thing about Stillmoon though is I have a chance to block fliers. But I guess that shouldn't matter because I should be confident in my decks ability to beat any type of deck. I don't know. What do you guys think? haha >.<

xzzane says... #21

Now that you mention it, Day of Judgment would be the best to take out. With all of your Oblivion Rings and Path to Exiles I think you're set. And I honestly would take out Stillmoon Cavalier for Accorder Paladin. Even if you don't have a defense against flyers, you can hit them harder and end the game sooner because of it. I would get rid of your Day of Judgments and 2 Oblivion Rings for 4 Accorder Paladins. And my deck Swarm and Conquer has rarely ever lost me a match. Playtest your knight deck against my token deck and see which wins, I'd be curious to know. And I know you mentioned this in an earlier comment, but 19 lands does seem like you're cutting it rather close...But if it works, it works I guess.

So far I swapped out the three Stillmoon Cavalier I had for three Accorder PaladinUndeadUnx told me about how you play tested our decks against each other. I am going to try it out myself right now. I will be sure to tell you how it goes.

AdrinaDream says... #23

You know, the thing about play testing my Knight deck is that the site goes by percentage and probability. So, it doesn't give me a enough mana. (Because I only have 19) But, I swear when I play in real life, I end up getting more than enough mana. -__- I swear mana problems are the greatest. hahah :D

AdrinaDream says... #24

Day of Judgment is my fail safe card. As much as I want to take them out, those babies always make it in my hand when they are needed the most.

March 9, 2013 2:39 p.m.

xzzane says... #25

Well I'm not sure how or why you get so much mana in real life,but in playtesting that's your biggest flaw. And why don't you change this to Modern instead of casual? And I'm trying to get a group of people(TrumpetsforKings, UndeadUnx and myself) to try our decks out and maybe do some sort of casual tournament through LackeyCCG. Want to try it out?
