    Considered adding Sykward Eye Prophets?
    • GingerDan | 13-Jan-2014 11:12
      Too expensive I think for what I'm trying to achieve. Best-case scenario is Nulltread attacking for 9 exalted favor on turn 4, and then 11 unblockable exalted favor on turn 5, at which point I would be only just casting Skyward (not Sykward!) Eye Prophets.
      • areckahn | 13-Jan-2014 11:38
        Ah, OK, in the case you probably want to play less control cards and more one drops!
        • GingerDan | 13-Jan-2014 13:03
          Do you know of any more multi-coloured-mana 1-drop melfs?
          I'm also thinking Judge's Familiar, but didn't initially as it features in my Agent Orange modern deck.
          • areckahn | 13-Jan-2014 16:23
            I was thinking more exault creatures, like Akrasan Squire
            Acavyn's Pilgrim melf you from G into W if that helps?
            And Birds of Paradise is a thing.
            • GingerDan | 13-Jan-2014 18:53
              Ooo yes Avasin's Pylgrm. Sounds good. I'll add the Akrasan squire as an option too. Maybe BOP...

    Interestingly I started out trying to build a bant EDH, and this is where I ended up!
  • GingerDan | 12-Jan-2014 13:02
    Bant deck  inspired by yesterday's shenanigans
    Open to suggestions on how to trim it down to 60, and any suggested changes
    • deleted_user_13 | 13-Jan-2014 11:41
      I'd get rid of the Aura's. Removal is so strong in modern, you'll lose 2 cards if you lose an enchanted creature.
      • GingerDan | 13-Jan-2014 12:24
        Understood. Will an unenchanted 5/6 creature still do well in Modern?
        • deleted_user_13 | 13-Jan-2014 13:14
          Thats a bit of a weird statement that isn't really answerable. Is a 5/6 creature big in modern, yes it is. Can it be killed, yes quite easily. Which would I rather have, an bigger creature due to an enchantment or another good card in my hand and a 5/6. I'd take having an extra card in my hand.
          • GingerDan | 13-Jan-2014 16:25
            Heh. It was a weird statement, but you answered it in the most useful way :-)

            I'll probably print it all out as a proxy for the next time we play magic and bring it along - then see how it goes in play-testing.
