Fact of the matter is I need a deck to take to standard events when I don't have modern events going on. All I want is to get my planeswalker points up. Soooo I'm thinkin of building this.

I honestly think the best deck for {Jeskai Ascendancy} in standard is Jeskai Tokens. You can get a stupid alpha strike going with {Stoke the Flames} and {Triplicate Spirits} as "free" casts while looting your way to a {Treasure Cruise} to keep going. It's basically tokens, creatures that make more tokens, cantrips and a couple tempo cards. It folds pretty hard to {Virulent Plague} but nobody really runs that.

I had a list but it's kinda discarded as I had more fun with Jalira Polymorph and Jeskai Counterburn. I do feel like it's a very powerful deck though. If you'd like I can show you my take on it.

No {soulfire grandmaster}? He's really bonkers late game and is pretty similar to {seeker of the way} early game.

I don't have any :( I threw this together quickly with what I had. I play modern mainly.. If they have two at the store once I get there I'll buy them there.
