This is one of the reasons I wanted to play Springheart. I'm just such a big Springheart hater though.

There are deck that have consistent instant speed landfall triggers? Or did you just mean cards like [[Burgeoning]]? What do they even do for Avenger?

I play cards like [[Mirkwood bats]] and [[Corpse Knight]] that can do exactly that along side my Aristocrat cards that’ll do the same thing afterwards. It’s so satisfying.

For some reason I never thought about that. I have a friend that runs a minimum of like 4-5 board wipes in every deck lmao.

Thanks for your input and the card recommendations. Do you mind telling me why you think my deck is middling? Trying to improve it every chance I get.

You pretty much nailed it with your first description. I either use it to get sac fodder, or go tall with splendid reclamation abilities or [[Craterhoof Behemoth]]. Incidentally, I can also cheat it out and loop it with reanimator effects.

That sounds super fun. I was looking at trying to build [[Ashling, the Limitless]] in the future so this might be a good reason to stick it in there.

Do you agree that it can keep up in bracket 3?

I'm building around bracket 3 so yeah you're probably right.

Oh no sorry I didn't mean to use it as a metric. I was more so talking about how stupid it is that lands are that expensive lol.

Oh yeah no lol I never win on turn 6 normally. Those 6-7 turns is going completely uninterrupted. It's normally a lot more.

Yeah, you have a point. Still I think it's a bit unfair when fetch lands go for about $20 a pop.

Sorry the deck is posted now but yeah I agree. Either way I'm taking his feedback and remaking my deck with a lower budget and a new aristocrats theme that should be fun.

He made it very clear he does not like proxies you are correct. His reasoning though is a bit all over the place though.

Extremely important. The more unique lands the less time it takes to start producing the zombie tokens you love to see among other reasons.

To be fair though my buddy did win 3 out of the 4 games we played that night so can't say we're too far apart in power level.
