Which hexproof creature

Deck Help forum

Ryan's Golgari FNM M14 doing OK at FNM but losing to red aggro burn decks.

I found that Giant Adephage and Jarad's Orders are too slow for this deck so I have 4 slots open. I figure I could take advantage of some hexproof creatures.

Gladecover Scout is 1/1 for 1 mana which I can easily Scavenge on (and super cheap)

Witchstalker is a 3/3 for 3 but also brings its own way to bring counters (although local meta does not see lots of Blue or Black.) Much more $$$.

Thoughts? or other ideas.

A 3/3 can hold its own during most of the game, so I'd say go with Witchstalker . Even without any counters, it might get through, whereas a 1/1 is probably not the only card on the battlefield.

Witchstalker ... it's hexproof blue/black hate. the 2 green could be a problem if running 3 color's but with 2, it's fine. Go play and enjoy the 3/3 busting up the world.

I agree. Witchstalker for sure. I saw someone trying to run scout last week and at best it was a chump blocker and at worst a dead draw.

I run both in my standard enchant deck, and I generally try to get Witchstalker out and enchanted and let Gladecover just be protection against Far / Away and Devour Flesh .
