You need 4 {silver inlaid daggers} given the human double strike and human unblockable.....which reminds me put 4 {invisible stalker} and drop all the defensive equipments IMO.  Add 4 {auriok edgeright} or at least 2.....notice he is human too :)

Validan

How do you feel about {auriok sunchaser}? Pretty good effect too

I like the double strike and the synergy with the Sword but you could use some flying in this deck.....you could achieve some flyers with {ornithopter} instead of {memnite}.....he may not be standard tho I know it was in M11 and Mirrodin

BlackJester

{Memnite} is the latest {Ornithopter}. At least in Standard.

Validan

Now is there a point to having the crusaders in there if I have the edgewrights? They both have the double strike and in testing the crusaders never even get

Validan

*played because the edgewrights are doing all the attacking

BlackJester

I think the protection from 40% of the colors is pretty important. Especially with zombies being so popular.

Prophylaxis

You forgot {Moorland Haunt}.

Validan

I'll post en edited version later today when I have a chance it has the haunt

I am eager to see the updated list; I really like this deck and see a lot of potential.

Validan

I hope this doesn't disappoint, in order to compensate for so many awesome creatures I had to place slightly smaller numbers in. The cleavers are until I get some more swords unless I find that I like playing with them in. And I'm also curious to know if putting a lot of 3 of's in here is a bad idea rather than cutting cards and going to 4

More {Moorland Haunt}s! Infinitely useful!

Validan
