ajani is a maybe, elspeth is really too slow. the 2 main problems with a bant deck is its reliance on the mana base and getting what you need. The mana base is the problem because 3 to 4 of the best cards you need in your deck, rhox, bant charm, rafiq, and finest hour all require 1 of each bant colour. compounded on that you need a 1 drop forest most of the time. The thing about getting what you need is you have to have a way to get it, either shake the deck up or draw advantage, thats where the misty rainforest and jace come in. rainforest allows me to tutor for that 1 drop forest or an island if needed, and it thins the deck and shakes it up. jace is just fast enough, low CMC but decent card draw, i can remove 2 from him to get 2 cards, then add 2 to get another card and start all over again. ajani is nice giving them all vigilance and what not, works great with knotvine, but other than that it doesnt offer too much else besides life. elspeth, while great, makes that token and flying with +3/+3, and makes indestructibility, yes all of that is great, but its too slow and would take up room for something else. although i am thinking of trying to find a way to add baneslayer in here
comment on the deck "New Bant" and i will return the favor
Iron Chef Mtg Competitor, come stop by the thread and see what is cooking on the site, lots of fun to be had!----------------------------------------------------- The angle of the dangle decreases with the sag of the bag, and increases in proportion to the heat of the meat compared to the mass of the ass and the beauty of the cutie.
