The reason I made 5 color allies instead of the allies as you listed is because the amount of redundancy for the +1+1 counters. You only have 12 creatures with +1+1 counters, and one gavony township with 21 lands. most decks with township run more lands to affectively use it, but i see you have druid so that may help.

I also think vial is a must for the list, along with hardened scales. I see what other people are doing in the list, but its hard to argue against vial in my opinion: Turn one vial lets you put 2 extra creatures out by turn 4, lets you use evangel better, protecting against removal, and lets you cast another creature even if you coco on turn 4.

I like that you didn't use razorverge thickert. I think it really messes up casting CoCo on turn 4 when you are waiting for that last land.

I personally like dedicating allies to an aggro feel. They don't come across as tempo. When I made the 5 color allies, which i think a lot of the 3 color and 2 color decks are somewhat based off of, I used boggles and merfolk as a template. Meforlk only with the land count, and cmc, and boggles with the redundancy. I think you want a lot of redundancy with this type of allies.

Are you on MODO? Maybe we can play some and I can get a better feel for the green white allies.

I use cockatrice but haven't in a while. I am trying to get aether vials but I'm broke right now so it will take me some time to get them

I'm so sorry, this was meant as budget.... dang, my bad. I wasn't trying to come across as a jerk, just had a lot of thoughts. besides the legality of cockatrice, it seems pretty awesome.

Haha it's alright! It's mostly the reason I only run 2 colors. I want to splash red badly and I'm gonna the figuring out a way with the new ally land

I tell you what, I'm pretty good with coming together with budget lands that work, let me see what I can do.

I never had a problem casting CoCo even with the Thickets. Just sayin'.

I mean, if you're stuck on three lands, you're up against an aggressive deck, you need to top deck a land to cast coco and swing in for lethal, and you top deck verge, then it's gg. I had this happen to me twice in the daily tournaments.

I have yet to draw Thicket as 4th land. Guess that happens sometimes.

yeah, idk, it may be worth keeping it in there. esp compared to life lost vs shock lands. But at this point I took it out.

I don't really think it's necessary to have. I have never had a mana problem with my current lands. And ondu cleric often mitigates the life loss.

True. Are you playing this deck only on cockatrice or in paper too? either way, what is your meta like?

I will be playing this in paper soon. I own the entire list except for the BFZ cards obviously. My meta is pretty random but there's a lot of burn, merfolk is pretty popular, I've seen bloom titan, I've seen scapeshift, and tokens.

excellent, so you should be able to 4-0, 3-1 at the least. Those are all favorable matchups for ally aggro.

Yeah if my draws are good haha I am known for shit draws and having no luck

I'm in the process of building out a similar deck. I've got Collected Company in there, but instead of the Hardened Scales route, I'm splashing blue for Mirror Mockery. You might want to consider finding a place for Emeria, The Sky Ruin. Like your take on Allies!

Emeria, The Sky Ruin would be for more of the mono-colored ally deck. The fact that it enters tapped and only provides white will be pretty harmful to us. And it requires 7 plains which means 8 lands including emeria. This deck's land count isn't really high enough to achieve that goal of 8 lands and actually be winning still.

Yeah, I get where your coming from regarding Emeria. Because I splash for U I get to use both Hallowed Fountain and Temple Garden which gives me the plains necessary to easily get Emeria online.

emeria is useless...usually if you dont win earlier before you can use it you will not win at all

hasn't been useless to me. I've come back from multiple Damnation through the use of Emeria and Collected Company. I guess you mileage may vary.

Johanson69 check out the "non-ally support" section! I just added a little something you might like haha.

Haha thanks for mentioning me :)

Remember to hit me up if an awesome card comes to your mind and I didn't list it yet, it's supposed to be a resource for all Ally players.

Will do!

aubman02 - Checkout the "other ally decks" tab! I added yours. Do you like the format? Also, if you want to change that short description I give tell me what you want put there.

Also, I'm hoping to link the deck the way JLenzen linked the ones in his primer at some point.

Thx Nef! I also appreciate the part encouraging people to upvote it. I'm sure much more people than who upvoted it like the deck, they just may not have upvoted.

I think I need to organize the page: Make it into a primer for the deck, and try to explain my thought processes better.
