My rendition of U/W StoneBlade.  Need some advice and opinions.  The creatures in the SB are the runners up that didn't not make the MB cut but are candidates for the SB.  Give me some input on what creatures to eliminate completely, add to MB, keep in SB, and so on please.

My main beaters are {Serra avenger} and I like {corelheim commander} in this as well since he will be easy to make as a 3/3 flyer as soon as he enters the BF.

{Enlightened Tutor}, top deck all of your goodies.

{Hallowed Fountain}, I'm in the process of purchasing them myself.

And anytime I see blue I think counter, I wonder how you'd stop all the board clears in the format.

Yea good idea.....maybe 1 or 2.

Dudecore

Maybe sideboard some swords based on opponents? Seems like a lot to carry, even if you tutor them with {Stoneforge}. I'd add a {batterskull}.

This might sound crazy, what if you add { Mask of Avacyn} to protect Stoneforge?

I'm still new to legacy but would {Geist of st. Traft} be good?

That is one of my favorite creatures in the game but I was going with a 2 CMC theme so I can reap full advantage of {aether vial}.    And yes the Geist has a place in legacy.....what would you take out to add him?

Went 3-2 against Tier 1 net decks on Cockatrice so that is not too bad for the first spin.

I also made a few bad moves so gonna have to go through some growing pains til I can play the deck to its best potential.  *nothing worse than letting your opponent reap the reward from your own {standstill}

hahah yeah when I read the card first thing I though was crap I would be stupid and use it against my self on acciedent XD

Dudecore

Yeah. You gotta have {Æther Vial} on the field or {Standstill} in your hand, use {Enlightened Tutor} to top the one you're missing, and use it to put creatures onto the battlefield. It totally rules.

Oh my god oh my god oh my god. {Cloudshift} {Stoneforge Mystic}!

SpiritedAway

I just peed a little. I love {Cloudshift}.

Would you be okay if I used your deck as a model for my own rendering of this deck?
