Fairly straight forward esper tokens.
Basically cast token spells and counter manic to protect talrand ad them get dudes. Pump all the fliers with enchantments and swing with the team. Thoughts?
I think ur gonna pull ur pump enchantments off the top a lot. Nothing is worse then getting ur board wiped and top decking virtue or winds when u wanna repopulate ur side of the field. Have u considered running drogskol captain? He won't pump ur talrand tokens but will pump ur spirits. And I personally would rather top deck him on an empty field than virtue or winds.
I think favorable winds > intangible virtue here for reasons ^^^
I think it looks like a solid deck. It's just more pumping enchantments than I would play
I do like the addition of drug skull captain however I do wonder about the number of enchantments. Most Bw token decks run 8 total I feel like they are more difficult to remove
I think the enchantments are fine, I would just switch {Rewind} for {Dissipate}. Turn three counter vs turn four.
I would also sideboard Ordric, with enough tokens attacking with him you'd end the game easily. Also I'd try to in corporate {Sleep} into the deck, I'm not a fan of the card but I see potential with it here for an all out token massacre.

Yeah I have been considering dissipate but I just like rewind because I can still play a midnight haunting after the fact and get yet another token
