Title: Green white aggro- need suggestions
Post by: Danielkix on March 01, 2013, 08:51:21 PM
Ive always liked GW and prefer to play it over other colors, i'd run naya but I dont have the cash for dual/shocklands. So these are tweaks I made to my GW deck and trying to rely a little more on humans. Suggestions?


4x {hamlet captain}
2x {thalia, guardian of thraben}
4x {experiment one}
3x {silverblade paladin}
4x {champion of the parish}
3x {frontline medic}
4x {loxodon smiter}
4x {strangleroot geist}
4x {rancor}
3x {oblivion ring}
2x {revenge of the hunted}
3x {selesnya charm}
4x {mayor of avabruck}

4x temple garden
4x sunpetal grove
4x forest
4x plains

I'm not sure if my deck needs to use {arbor elf} and {avacyn's pilgrim} for a mana ramp and there are other cards such as {mayor of avabruck} that I considered.

 {Mayor of Avabruck} is amazing and should be in human decks.  {Burning-Tree Emissary} and   {Frontline Medic} are also being used in human decks

Was just something to consider  {Burning-Tree Emissary} although is used in naya blitz it still can be used in gw aggro to a good extent; turn 1 champion, turn 2 burning tree and mayor is very strong

I think mayor burningtree and mana dorks would all be good

Updated deck, Im not sure I need the mana dorks with the amount of one drops I have.

I was thinking turn to three drop...I love playing smiter/frontline turn two

What would you remove for mana drops?

As far as I can tell  {Experiment One} is going to get up to a 3/3 at the most so I'd drop those 1  {Champion of the Parish} and on  {Hamlet Captain} for three of each mana dork.

I think with smiter it could reach 4/4, {sublime archangel} is another possibilty.

Oooooooh the archangel would be so nasty in this deck with frontline and smiter on the board :D

 {Gather the Townsfolk} is a sweet 2 drop with champion of the parish out.

I don't see how the deck can run well with only 16 land. I'd recommend at least 21.

I would also make this a core white humans deck, removing  {Strangleroot Geist} and  {Hamlet Captain} and replacing them with  {Elite Inquisitor},  {Precinct Captain} or  {Knight of Glory}. Maybe include  {Riders of Gavony} as the curve topper at 4.
In the land, I'd add some  {Gavony Township} for the later game.
