I finally have a list for Tajic, Legion's Edge. I went with a Boros semi-midrange version of a white weenie type deck with mentor and other +1/+1 counters effects. I overhauled a deck that JumboCommander posted to YouTube, removing the high CC cards, the banned cards, and stuff I didn't think would do well in Duel. The average CMC is 2.75.. which I don't know if that's where I want to be or not. The current list is $600ish, and I'd like to have a deck with that budget as a starting point so that I can build up as I go likely to an eventual budget of $1200. I want it to be able to compete in a tournament environment with Izzet Walkers, Saskia the Unyielding, Abzan tempo, U/X control decks, Najeela, the Blade Blossom, Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow, etc.
I know this deck is far from perfect, and any advice is wonderful. I'd like this deck, like I said, to perform in the same sort of ballpark as Kari Zev. This version has a budget mana base, which I can improve a lot with more fetches, Plateau, Mana Confluence, etc. Without further ado:
This is an updated version of what was posted before, including many changes. Any advice you can give is appreciated. I'd also like to add Chance for Glory and Cosmotronic Wave because I think they're really good for this deck. I might be wrong, but I know from prerelease that both are fun.
