Well the point of your deck if I'm correct is to play a bunch of counter spells and right now your creatures are battalion based meaning you need creatures. But what you should look into post FNM or pre depending on time is build it around Talrand as he can get you many creatures with a spell heavy deck. Also again your deck is designed to counter and burn so Pacifism is good but not what YOUR deck needs

Actually I keep my battilion creatures for a reason beyond attack, and. I've been trying to move away from battilion as much as possible, and against attacking decks, I don't have much protection so those stall my death for a while. Firemane I keep because it's battalion is burn, and Tajic because he's an awesome defender.

Ok true well you'll find at FNM that you'll probs want to find alternative defenders or burns other than battalion also look at  {Delver of Secrets} and  {Guttersnipe} very good for you imo

[Mlerner12]

Guttersnipe tried, Didn't help. Also, fog bank is a great defender which is what I try to get with creatures

[Mattao19]

Ok well good luck and trust me you want more consistency so play sets of stuff. Not just one random card in your deck and when you make a more consistent deck I doubt that you'll want fog bank but to each their own

You're probably right but I'm going to test it at FNM to make sure.

[Mattao19]

Good Luck!!

[Mlerner12]

Thanks! Testing against my friend, gonna play one game with and one without your suggestions, see how it works out.

[Mattao19]

Ok hopefully I helped a bit

[Mlerner12]

You were right, taking out  {Tajic, Blade of the Legion} and  {Firemane Avenger} (60 cards) really help, but I still have one prob. Is there any legal way I can make myself more likely to get land?

[Mattao19]

Not in your colors. But again lose the gates they're way to slow idk your budget but shocklands and check lands really help but they're a tad pricey

[Mlerner12]

I usually attempt to trade for those, but people aren't usually willing to give them away.

[Mattao19]

Because they're so good!!

[Mlerner12]

Well, I guess that's true.

[Mattao19]

Just think about it you can have the best cards but if you don't have the right mana you're toast so that's why good lands are costly

[Mlerner12]

Dang it! My FNM this week is sealed, which I like, but can't use my deck. Just going to make a deck like mine.
