Hi guys! For my first article as official writer for the blog, i'm gonna talk about a deck i drafted, so we can discuss it later in the comments. This article is gonna be the first of a series of articles with sample lists of the archetypes we've discussed before. This following days, we'll be talking about 4/5 color Green, UG heroic-tempo, and RG monstrosity, and we'll post decklists for them too.
Alright, so here's the list (the side only includes cards you might side in, off-color or bulk was a waste of space):
Heros:
1 Anthousa, Setessan Hero
3 Wingsteed Rider
1 Divine Verdict
1 Last Breath
Ramp/mana fix:
1 Opaline Unicorn
Other creatures:
2 Nessian Asp
1 Lagonna-Band Elder
1 Setessan Griffin
1 Evangel of Heliod
1 Mistcutter Hydra
Lands:
8 Forest
9 Plains
Side:
1 Setessan Battle Priest
1 Ephara's Warden
1 Setessan Griffin
1 Shredding Winds
1 Yoked Ox
Well, this deck has two things to mention: On one side, we have 3 Wingsteed Riders. They are the best creature you can get in this deck, and they work very well. But we only have 5 heroic creatures. What makes the deck good is the support: 2 Nessian Asp, Mistcutter Hydra, and other common beaters like Nessian Courser.
This deck is more of an hybrid between heroic and plain aggro. There are three "bomb" cards, very efficient commons, and the Riders work amazingly. Also, there's good ramp/fixing, which ensures to get those turn 3 riders, and monstrosity on the asps.
The deck lacks a bit of removal. There's one Divine Verdict, which is good, and Last Breath, which is decent (though some people seem to hate it to death).
The idea now, is to talk about the deck in the comments, say what you like/dislike, or give us your own lists. I hope this helped you somehow.
Have fun drafting!
