I could use some ways to protect my {gilder bairn}s, such as something to give them hexproof. Ideas?

[Chargingswadger]

Alpha authority maybe?  I love this deck idea. Training grounds + paradise mantle is the combo I assume?

[Ekann1]

Yeah, and then have infinite turns with {ral zarek}. Which I then use to put 100 counters on helix pinnacle...

I decided on {clout of the dominus} instead of alpha authority.

[Chargingswadger]

That works

[Ekann1]

I feel like this needs more counterspells or "more copies" or gilder bairn, but I have no idea what to cut for either...

[DylanW18]

Technically, Ral doesn't grant "infinite" turns the statistical chances of you not flipping heads the first time is 1/32. Then there's an incredibly small chance that at some point, after all the extra turns, you don't flip heads at all


But it's basically infinite lol love the deck idea

[Ekann1]

Well, he'll have about 40 counters so I can just wait and try again

Since {jace, architect of thought} has dropped $20 since I last checked I replaced the kioras with him. They do practically the same thing I need them to do: slow down agro decks until I can combo off, and jace also helps me search for combo pieces. And with infinite turns, his ultimate is fun.

i would consider less than 4 {helix pinnacle}s since the only way you can ramp them is {gilder bairn}.

[Ekann1]

I can't ramp them with gilder bairn. They have shroud. I just have infinite turns with Ral so I can put infinite mana into them. But maybe you're right and I could play 3. Lower than that and I'm worried I won't draw them.

makes sense.

Guess I could throw in another Kitchen Finks or Mana Leak. Thoughts on which? Or something else?
