Replacing Doomed Traveller
Deck Help forum
Posted on March 1, 2013, 3:35 a.m. by DancesWithGoblins
Could anyone think of a card to replace Doomed Traveler in Goblins and Soldiers?!? The card needs to be fairly cheap in terms of CMC and actual cost (You'll note the deck is budget). The reason I want it replaced is that it was pointed out to me that it wasn't much of a threat, if I played it any time other than T1 or T2 it'd just sit there doing 1 dmg at max and I wouldn't get the benefit of the token.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Elite Vanguard is probably the best non-rare for 1 CMC

I would recommend Fencing Ace. It's not 1 cmc but it can still be lethal late game with your Cathars' Crusade and it is definitely budget at $1 for a playset. Although, you don't have many other ways to buff him at the moment.

1CMC cards are almost always only good during the first couple of turns, there are exceptions but if you are on a budget you won't get any.
for example:
Dragonmaster OutcastStudent of WarfareChampion of the Parish
You won't get cards like that unless you can pay or trade for them, student of warfare is fairly reasonably priced, now that it is not in standard.
