    My version of Vitality! This version focuses on sustaining an Angelic Accord as its'wincon. However, it isn't nearly as budget-friendly. :(

      I like it a lot. Props for keeping in Sunbond. That was the card that inspired me to build Vitality (it just didn't make the cut after revisions!! :[ ) Trostani will get you mileage. I would tweak it to have just a little more angel-on-demand though. I'd swap 1 precinct captain for another heroe's reunion or a brindle boar. Not budget is OK if you already have the archangel of thunes. I have 0. And 1 trostani. And 2 precinct captains. Heck. And 1 angelic accord.

        I've got everything except for the Archangels and the Temples. I'm glad I had the foresight to grab my precint captains back when he was a 50 cent rare. I've even got double Trostani. 
        • Quincy Norton | 16-Feb-2014 04:23
          But which one to add? They both have plenty of pros and cons.
          • Pierce | 16-Feb-2014 20:25
            I'd lean slightly more toward's Brindleboar. Brindleboar has a higher life potential via chump blocking, and can net you a still-sizeable voracious t4 worm if you're only at 3 mana, can activate Sunbound for free (though it won't be a surprise), is still a possible attacker, and can provide for an Angelic Accord the turn you play it on curve as opposed to waiting another turn afterwards. 
            Heroes' Reunion get's you a bigger impact on the worm and Sunbound (this substantially matters in the case of a t4 worm scenario). More consistency. Can be a surprise.  And obviously 7 life is more than 4, at a lower mana cost.


            I loved my 1-of of brindleboar in my Ghoultree deck. Though that somehow had even more utility in that deck than this one I think, and I know I more fond of 1-of's than you are.

        I actually have everything except for the Archangels and the Temples. Not exactly budget cards themselves, but can be justified as fine investments. Precint captain does a lot for this deck. He makes chump blockers that go bananas after an Archangel drops, and also is one of the best things on this decks curve. Turn 2, Captain. Turn 3 Unflinching Courage. Smack with a 4/4 First Strike, Lifelink trample, make a guy. Next turn, hopefully play an Accord, or even a Sunbond. Proceed to watch an opponent try to put out 10 fires at once.

          On the subject of Synergy, have you noticed all the interactions with itself? Trostani// Angelic Accord. Trostani// Archangel. Trostani//Voracious Worm. Voracious Worm // Trostani. Yes, that combo works both ways. :D
          • Pierce | 16-Feb-2014 20:14
            Yup
        • Pierce | 16-Feb-2014 20:28
          OK, good case. You're running the 4 temple of plentys to give you decent enough odds of the 2 white on turn 2 in this 2 colored deck. I'd still get another angel-on-demand card, but that's just me.
