Title: Thalia Exalted (fnm Competitive)
Post by: Agrajagzz9 on July 16, 2012, 12:55:37 PM

Thalia Exalted (fnm Competitive)

60 cards, 0 sideboard


18 {Plains}
4 {Cathedral of War}

22 lands


3 {Silverblade Paladin}
3 {Mikaeus, the Lunarch}
4 {Knight of Glory}
4 {Sublime Archangel}
2 {Gideon's Lawkeeper}
4 {Fiend Hunter}
4 {Champion of the Parish}
3 {Aven Squire}
4 {Thalia, Guardian of Thraben}
4 {War Falcon}

35 creatures


3 {Ajani, Caller of the Pride}

3 other spells


Sideboard

Notes:
The sideboard isn't build yet but I feel like this deck will work well. Far falcon plus any exalted dude means he is basically a flipped delver. Same with champ. Removal is thin but fiend hunter  and lawkeeper keep creatures under control. A bit unsure about the vault in this deck but the death touch and lifelink are just really relevant.

Great use of the exalted weenies strategy, but why go black at all. If you want to consitantly hit your early game there cant be 6 colorless land and 7 off color or tapped land. Thats 13 land in your deck potentially keeping you from first turn champ or falcon.

Well I have been thinking tht also but at te same time I Ned something to discourage and all out attack. My entire team with deathtouch helps. But I do agree

Also oring will be worthless with thalia

I have also been considering the soul bond lifelinker dude and just letting them swing through so I can just gain it back of my exalted guy

See there however I don't know what I would take out for him.

It's not really smart to say something is useless with Thalia. I get this is a WW deck, but it has it's limitations without some sort of removal. Decks without removal= bad.

This^
Decks without removal can get overran and have no way to stop it. I understand running low removal msinbosrd but definitely sideboard a bit of it

Well yeah I get that and I do have removal it's just like oblivion ring would not end up main board because of Thalia I feel like I might change them out if I were against a really creature heave deck. I have sideboard option basically figured out I am just wondering about the main board. I use fiend hunter and lawkeeper as creature control but at there other better creatures for this that I am missing

Like Thalia making o ring cost four is just a lot to be paying in a ww deck

I think it would be better if you took the black out

Do you think it's really necessary to put {Cathedral of War} and {Sublime Archangel} together?

And take out black...

Why not? Cathedral gives you another +1+1!

I'd suggest a {Faith's Shield} play set in here.

It helps protect you from a blowout via {Murder}, but can pull offense too with psuedo-unblockable. Only costs two if Thalia is out
