Fiendslayer is so crazy when you have Ajani out thou...5/5 first strike and life link...next turn 8/8...11/11...gets sick so fast

Needs {banishing light}.

I've been considering that as well as {devouring light} but not sure what to take out...maybe two selesnya and one boros charm?

Took out 1x fiendslayer, 1x boros charm, 2x selesnya charm and added 1x sacred foundry and 3x banishing light...thoughts?

Everyone looks at her second plus one as why she's broken. Check out the FREE 4/4 Trampler with Haste! Lol every turn! Imagine that with Ajani. Free 7/7 trample with haste? Yes please

True...maybe have her as a one of and take out an elspeth?

Yeah I'd say drop an a Elspeth. Why the Boros charms?
Title: Re: Nayawalkers, Assemble!
Post by: DylanW18 on August 13, 2014, 12:37:23 AM

Indestructible walkers and/or creatures vs mono black or control...double striking fiendslayer vs aggro...redirected 4 vs other walkers...so versatile

What's selesnya charm for?
Title: Re: Nayawalkers, Assemble!
Post by: respawned on August 13, 2014, 12:42:31 AM
While steadfast is good...prefer not to have more potential dead cards

Exiling big creatures...sneak blockers vs mutavault...and that extra umph when you need it lol

Hmm.. I can see the argument for Boros charm, but personally not feeling the Selesnya charm. One thing about Walker decks is that you have to cram them with walkers. Even if you draw multiple of a Walker, it means you win. They can't handle the first Walker, they for sure can't handle it a second time. So this means you've won. Lemme explain in detail


So in my deck, say I have a {Nissa Worldwaker} out. If I happen to draw another my next turn, but they haven't even answered my first Nissa, the first Nissa will end the game due to constant 4/4's. Sure, maybe it's a "dead card", but I won the game anyways. Running more ensures you draw them from the get go, ramp into them, and win. That's why I love running as many as I can, while having support spells in the deck. I vote for 2 Worldwakers and 2 Steadfast, but that's just my two cents :)

I see your point on the selesnya charms...may pull them...maybe one more nissa but not feeling the other Ajani thou...maybe another banishing light or boros charm

Maybe steadfast in SB vs Aggro? The lifelink could save you haha

True...never thought bout him in the side

I know personally Boss Sly RDW can beat me to a pulp. Even AOT+1 doesn't save me very often. But you might be better positioned due to more midrange creatures, but even then ain't nothing wrong with a 5/5 lifelink vigilance first striking haster Stormbreath lol


Oops, Pro White. Could drop the Polukranos first and have a 6/6 first strike vigilance Lifelinker
