Obelisk of Urd! is good. Drop the Divine Favor , Brave the Elements , and Ethereal Armor . This is more of a token rush deck than Voltron. Consider 4x Brimaz, King of Oreskos or mainboarding the Soldier of the Pantheon , as well as more Legion Loyalist . Try sideboarding Pithing Needle , Mizzium Mortars , Rest in Peace , or Revoke Existence .

What do you guys think about the card Devouring Light for this deck?

Nah, it's not good enough. Maybe add in some Aegis of the Gods for sideboard? Ajani Steadfast is the better planeswalker. Why no Temple of Triumph or Sacred Foundry ?

I was just trying to get the creature base down first. ill mess around with it asap. plus, during play-testing it seemed to work as a turn 4-6 win pretty consistently (tested by seeing how fast i could dish out 20 dmg. with no blockers or anything) I feel like the temples may slow me down, but we will see.

Just saying, Preeminent Captain does not trigger battalion and Brimaz, King of Oreskos effects.

Why wouldn't he? it says put a soldier creature card from your hand onto the battlefield tapped and Attacking... so wouldnt it trigger the Whenever x attacks?

You could try mr.Palisade Giant haha. Seems fun to cheat him into play.

Daxos of Meletis would be solid but he needs to be castable without the captain or he will be a dead drop i suggest adding 4 Shivan Reef and maybe a few Battlefield Forge especially post rotaion

being as your missing some sideboard cards a couple Hushwing Gryff s would be good

Ephara, God of the Polis would be massively beneficial for the card draw it would supply just to keep the deck rolling into late game

a couple Archetype of Courage would be a nice thing to pop out with your captain

also why no Spear of Heliod

if you see the value of adding blue throw in Bident of Thassa as well

another overall underated card is Anax and Cymede even if the heroic isn't great it's still a 3/2 first strike vigilance which will draw kill spells away from some other important creatures preemptively

in other words post rotation this should be american soldiers
