Hi, just got done making an esper deck and wanted to put it up here to see if anyone sees something that I am missing, something that needs to come out, something that should be changed in general, or any other suggestions.
Hey, I've been playing since like revised but I always suck at making blue decks. Right now I'm building a blue deck thats based on bouncing their stuff.
I've tried playing this a little on Magic Workstation and am 2 - 5 with it. So I am looking for advice / critique. Especially on creatures, I can never remember the names of good blue creatures, but also on the deck as a whole.
I have a deck like this but I use [card] Zuran Orb [card] instead of Wood, I posted the deck a while back in here so you should be able to find it if you want too compare.
Here is my white shadow soltari deck, I think I have got the deck itself pretty good but am having problems making a sideboard for it, any suggestions?
Below is my casual blue pauper faerie deck, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I want to keep it a pauper deck so I am looking for commons only.
I have a deck pretty similar to what your thinking of. I would suggest two things:
1. Galepowder Mage: Flickerwisp only lets you rfg springjack when it comes in, while galepowder mage lets you do it every turn that galepowder attacks.
2. Also presuming the idea is to get alot of tokens, I would definitely add some Honor of the Pure.
This is by far my favorite of the decks I have and have been using it for awhile. I am putting the deck list of it up to hear any criticism of it and to hear suggestion on how I can make it better and what cards to potentially drop or add.
Also I don't want to add creatures at all, not even sakura tribe elder, I am looking to keep this a creatureless deck.

2. Also presuming the idea is to get alot of tokens, I would definitely add some Honor of the Pure.
Maybe Blizzard Specter, as it lets you bounce something or make them discard.
Maybe Mulldrifter for draw.
Spire Owl could help.
Doomsday Specter requires you to bounce a creature back to your hand, so you could use it to get your man-o-war, shriekmaw, or nekraatal to reuse.
