Dissension Theme Deck: Azorius Ascendant
Deck Help forum
Posted on May 30, 2013, 9:23 p.m. by MyRevival
I'm outsourcing a little deck tweaking. Social magic players at work (like social drinkers or smokers) found out that I play. So now I'm inundated with "Hey I've got this deck that just sucks, take it for the weak and make it better."
Most of the time, I throw a cardlist at them and they're happy. I'm pretty stuck on this one though. I can't even figure out where the deck wants to go. Admittedly, I'm not much of a blue player, and suck at control. So if this deck wants to go control, I wouldn't be surprised that I didn't spot it. I'm also mostly unfamiliar with the set that this deck spawned from.
Here is a deck list for reference.
Any and all help and suggestions greatly appreciated!
Best advice, add Mana Leak , Preordain , Ponder and then some better fliers and maybe a bomb and a few board wipes and BOOM, the deck is better

Azorius Ascendant is a control deck... the issue is that how it comes in the box SUCKS. You almost are required to change it, I personally had to in order for it to win anything.

Okay, that explains why I couldn't aim it any particular direction. Thanks!

Yep! The control it does isn't what people think control means today.... it is tap/ un-tap heavy.... and the card that the deck uses for this suck. Even today's cards do that better.

A theme deck? Well, there's your problem: it sucks and doesn't know what it wants to do. I dunno what to say without saying just scrap it and start over.
Btw, the rares are probably some of the worst cards in the deck.
