Very fun with the little pumping guys at the beginning (Kazandu Blademaster, Oran-Rief Survivalist, Umara Raptor) and then you put out a Kabira Evangel to make them unblockable which usually ends the game but if it doesn't, you can just draw into more allies with Sea Gate Loremaster, then if it ever comes to this, throw out Clarion Ultimatum and end it. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

Pretty nice deck built on a budget. I like the idea behind it. If you could you should check out my vampire deck too. It's my current FNM deck. Thanks for the comment and rating on the token deck though. Please help me with my current Rock build. I'll return the favor. x.Herron.x

uh i wouldnt say that your creatures are unblockable, that rarely happens unless the creature actually says unblockable. as for the deck, its a standard bant allied deck, nothing too special, just one of the many decks that many people will have running around with. sorry for the news. other than that i wouldnt run the clarion, just too mana intensive for this deck the way your mana is. so work on your mana base, get some duals like sunpetal and glacial. try some fetchlands adn an alt win like eldrazi monument. other than that good luck 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.

yes, the deck is definitely budget. I'm probably not going to go in on sunpetal and glacial. But I think that Kabira Evangel can, most of the time, make my guys unblockable. This is especially true when I have multiple allies coming into play in one turn which happens fairly often. The Clarion is basically a game winner if it can put 5 allies on the field near the end of the game. And by with the help of a Kabira Evangel, it makes all of my creatures mini progenitus with protection from everything (unblockable and shroud) basically. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

This is a sweet deck. Simple. Fun. Can actually win games while under budget. Keep the Clarions in. Great deck!
5/5 for sure. Rate my Esperagus deck por favor.

Explore's scope is a cheap card that attahed to your raptors lets you play an extra land and in the worst case lets you know what ally is getting drawn next turn. Excellent to get your mana fix for Clarion Ultimatum or to start planing the next turn out (since you know what next turn's draw is).

Hey thanks for the idea, a few explorer's scope will actually be really good I think. Does anyone have any other ideas for good budget one drops that would be helpful to this deck and would keep it standard? -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

Looks fun but would fix up the mana-base with some seaside citadels. Otherwise looks fun but clarion ultimatum is just impossible to bet out with out the seagate loremaster. Tell me how it works. Great for a budget deck. Want to buy me some Baneslayer Angels? Return the favor and comment on my "Jozi's Root Queller" deck. Thanks.

Maybe look at Oblivion Ring or even path to Exile for some early removal or you could even go with heavy hitting removal like Martial Coup, Day of Judgement over even Iona to kill the power colors of another players deck, 4/5. When you have the time could you checkout my "Doran the Murmuring God" or my "Hideous Ending" deck...

Yeah if the explorer's scopes don't work out I will probably put my Journey to Nowheres back in the main for better removal. And I would do the Path to Exiles but I don't have any and they are kind of expensive $ wise... I'm actually pretty scared of the heavy removal things because if all my allies are gone, I pretty much have to start from zero again... But I guess it could be sweet if I had a bunch of mana and drew a bunch of cards with a Loremaster so that I would have more allies at the ready and then I cast a Martial Coup or something... Cool. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

its consistent, smooth, no big trump cards besides the protection and ultimatum, you can still play things if you get mana screwed for a few turns. really a 4.9/5 but will give 5 cause it can play against anything and generally work the same. Take a look at my type 2 decks Polymorph of Emrakul, Defender, How to Stall, Locus of Bane, Eldrazi Tourny Style and Landfall Management.

See, that's actually the beauty of this deck. Their aren't many big bombs besides the ultimatums, but it's surprising how scary an early Kazandu Blademaster or Oran-Rief Survivalist can be after like three turns on the field. And yes, the protection can get insane. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

Since Birds of Paradise is used for mana, why not switch it out for Noble Hierarch just for the exalted bonus?

I would and I've actually thought of that, but I don't have any Noble Hierarch... And really, the exalted would only be useful in the opening turns of a game. After the first few turns, I hope to have a few creatures attacking. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

i would look at adventuring gear to give some more pump to your allies maybe even look at some removal as well like O-Ring. After reviewing thee deck a little closer, i take my 3/5 and give it a 5/5. Nice jobe when you have the time could you checkout my "Vengeant of Termination" deck.

Nicely done, but i think u should swap out the Tajuru Archers with some Stonework Pumas, since the puma does not require a specific color. 5/5 Shock and Awe

i get that it's built on a budget, but you just have creatures... and allies aren't that good. i don't understand why this is in the top 10... the only reason i think this deck got so many 5's is because people want 5's in return.

this deck would be a deck i would make for a beginner. you have no card advantage (the Sea Gate Loremaster doesn't count because it's a terrible form of card draw) , no removal, nothing, 2 cards that excel in mana, but that's pointless when you have a 1 in 30 chance of drawing a creature that dies to anything.

the only thing that isn't a bad idea is the ultimatum, but since the earliest that can happen is turn 5 if you are lucky, which it will never happen.

any deck with removal/ control would destroy this deck. i'm only so mean because so many people think this deck is a 5/5... which would mean it's absolutely perfect in every way... which this is far from...

if you want to build on a budget but actually make a deck that is good put in journey to nowhere, or oblivion ring, into the roil, anything.

1/5 Check out "Nayavine." I'll return the favor.

well im revisiting some of the decks on the top ten. your deck is good for an ally deck, though allys in themselves are not that good. the archer is useless, instead eldrazi monument would be a better option. with you being able to pump out wolves it wouldnt be that hard to maintain so that way your allies have +1/+1, flying and indestructible. giving you a way to win other than bashing your creatures up against an opponents creatures. also the explorer scope is pretty useless, however, whatever you do, do not use journey to nowhere, its useless, go for o ring or path 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.

Alright. I've made a few small changes. Realized the Journey to Nowhere is much better for the deck than the Scopes. Also realized that the Ultimatum can be a killer, but if I'm already doing well, it's usually not necessary, and if I'm doing badly, then there probably aren't permanents on the field that I want to get more of. I think that a more effective card than the ultimatum is Wargate. I can adapt Wargate more easily to the situation required and it costs a lot less. I also defend some of my choices for this deck. Tajuru archer takes down Baneslayer Angels pretty easily and has definitely been useful for the deck on multiple occasions. Against a heavy flyer deck, it kills. Also, Ninja Muffin, the Loremaster works really well for me and I wonder what is wrong with it. I can usually tap after one turn with it on the field to draw about 5 cards and then immediately play down like three allies and it only keeps getting better from there. Loremaster is a keeper, as are the Archers. Thank you for the ideas, I will keep working on it. -Check out my deck, "Glory of Kazuul 1.1"

take out journey it is USELESS. o ring is by far superior, sure it costs one more, but its worth it. if you dont want to use o ring then go for path 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.
