The End of an Era

    So i've been playing this game differently. I called my deck Sigarda's Gift (sigarda's aid and steelshapers's gift).
    I splash blue on my end but that's for the academy ruins and a geist. Though i've had similar attempts and trials on my own end of testing and just recently found this thread I'm going to say how surprised i am to not see Darksteel plate on your main board. With the current meta of removals and such makes it an for sure pick. It puts in so much work that its unstoppable or at the very least protects the creature you really wanna keep alive.

    Sigarda's aid is probably the one card i'll be vouching for because I love to use the swords when I can. Since my meta has mostly tron,jund,hollow one and humans mirran crusader is actually really good with one other sword. There are creatures i never considered such as the sacred cat but I know that i could speak up and say man lands are a good addition but as a 2 of (preferably inkmoth) just for a secondary wincon and trust me it won more games than you can imagine. Though I've ran 23 lands and a set of flooded strand I'm unsure how I feel about having only 20 lands. Then again most of my stuff weren't cheap and probably slower so you can say i was the more mid-range type build.

    I also used the lands to my advantage and used blackblade reforged as a one off. Though i've never used vault scourge and had myself thraban inspector for additional body and artifact for metalcraft (cos i don't care for darksteel citadel) the little draw helps at times when i do draw it and usually gives me a draw when need be. Blackblade with kor or mirran is the dream along side a basilisk collar makes for the dream (which usually gets me the win so long as i got a sigardas aid in play but can also be equip for cheap with sram and saint traft).

    Finding this thread is new to me so i'm glad i did though I'm not in favor of mono-white solely for meta sake of humans and other goofy stuff. I've considered to throw in trophy mage for redundancy in tutors but for the hard hittin' artifacts like a crucible of worlds to reuse fetches but that too can seem slow but the idea was just an idea.

    I do believe 1xbatterskull has a place in the sb though. This can probably be due to my meta. This will be my first go with using bone saw so i'm fairly interested to see how it plays out! i'm modding my deck to have 3 steelshapers and 3 paths. i use two swords main and a darksteel with another 2 swords in the sb (war/peace and light/dark)
    If anyone has a question to my experiences do ask i welcome them :3

    EDIT: I forgot to mention that i use blue to side in supreme verdict
