Considering an American version of this. I like {Warleader's Helix} with council. A lot. Also, if its American, what do you think of the synergy between {Assemble theLegion} and {Tajic, Blade of the Legion}?

I tried to stay away from 3 colors because buddy land are rotating out.

I could see Tajic and assemble the legion, but assemble would be a 1-3 of. I prefer Tajic with frontline medics, angels, etc

Vileo

Even without the buddy lands, you only really need one set of duals when It comes down to it. And both would only be 1-of anyway.

Would {Angel Of Serenity} be of any use in here?

{Angel of Serenity} turn 5 after a Council? Bomb

Sorry. Council can't name creatures.

Late game, this deck is just supposed to keep boardwiping and countering. Depending on my hand and the field, I sometimes call Syncopate with Council on turn 5.

Angel can be kill spelled as well. It's safer to overload {cyclonic rift} or cast {supreme verdict} then swing with platemails

{azorius keyrune}? I think it'd work well with ramping (for sphinxes revo) and swinging after board wipes.

You can try it. I personally don't like using keystones other than rakdos keystone outside of draft. It'd be better to draw a rift or azorius charm.

Still competitive. 3-0-1 last FNM. People had their sideboards stacked against me lol.

More thoughts please :)

Vileo

I played a similar list on Friday and I either went 3-0-1 or 2-1-1, I can't remember. I was also playing {Riot Control}, which you should definitely consider. I'm also having a last run on Tamiyo, because she's insane. I pulled her emblem and cast riot control 4 times because council made it cost less (On opponents turn, after I cast council).

Would it be control BURN or control AGGRO? I could help, I've run both.
