Description of deck by its author
(quoted):
This deck combines red with green, and uses
cards from the wider standard pool with the aim of maximising the
potential of Leaf-Crowned Elder.
Plan A in this deck involves dropping a second turn
Banneret to play defence while enabling you to speed out the more
expensive guys. Wolf-Skull Shaman also allows you to build up some early
blockers to prevent being overrun before the rest of the deck comes
online. The kinship creatures will trigger 50% of the time in this deck,
and pretty much every turn if you get a Cream of the Crop into play.
Once the Elder hits you should start getting a free
spell a turn, which will quickly provide an overwhelming advantage.
Going long, the recursion offered by Masked Admirers and Reach of
Branches means that you should come out ahead in an attrition race.
Hopefully this has provided a bit more to think about
when approaching the new shaman cards, let me know your thoughts on the
forums. If this is an interesting topic to people I'll have a look at
covering some of the other tribes... |
