Hey all, this is what I thus far. I need to cut a few things out and I need to see if there are things I can optimize. I am extremely short on instant type responses and targeted removal.. What would you all suggest to improve this decklist? Keep in mind that I want the Exalted theme to be kept in tact and that I want to keep people uncomfortable with activated abilities to be restricted.
How do you find the Exalted theme to work out? I've personally never tried it because it seems like you're encouraged to overextend for little immediate gain, and one wrath can set you back.
I also run an exalted themed Rafiq deck (in my sig if you wanna see it) and I got some really good advice (that I didn't want to hear) from OCPunisher:
If your only excuse for playing a certain card is the word "exalted", cut it.
