The Blightsteel wasn't the focus. I just figured using 2 of the 60 cards in away that makes winning not so linear was a good idea. If I never play Blightsteel than the deck should run fine, but if I happen to shape anew into him, gg. I don't know. Just seemed like an interesting idea

This looks fun lol. Can this be considered a tribal wolf though? There's almost no wolves aside from tokens? Young Wolf seems to be the only true wolf drop, aside from AA. Interesting all the same. Looks very fun. If you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate some input on some new decks I'm putting together

I personally don't think Asceticism is worth it at all. 5 mana just to protect you're werewolves. Also, Rootbound Crag is standard, so that should definitely be in there. Helps your land base and as long as its early it doesn't slow you down. At worst when you draw it it does what the Evolving Wilds would do; at best it makes your life easy turns 1-4. I'd sideboard the Night break ranger and add more Kruin Outlaws as they combo with Instigator and Full Moon's Rise soooo well. Also I personally feel that if you have red in your deck and you don't put in some burn, you're missing out huge. I'd put in some Arc Trails or Incinerates. Also I'm not sure why Immerwolf isn't in here. Also take a look at Huntsmaster of the Fells
If you wouldn't mind, take a look at some of my decks. I'd appreciate any help you could give me.

Couldn't you put some Rune Scarred Demons in here? they become 2 drop 3/3 flyers that tutor for anything you need like a Sheoldred or something. If you can find room they'd be pretty amazing. All in all Sheoldred+lich+Perilous Myr wrecks though. Its an awesome idea. Good job man. If you have any time I could use some advice on a couple of my decks.

Looks fun. Dark Ascension has done a lot for paranormal Tribal. I'm trying to work on a Zombie Tribal. I'd appreciate any advice!

Yeah I know what you mean. I was worried this would be too slow. 6 bigger drops doesn't seem that bad though. Having playtested Endless Ranks, I feel like its just too slow. Like 5 or 6 turns later it starts doing amazing, but I wanted to test Rooftop Storm out. If the Lich is out it allows me to play any zombie from the graveyard for 1 mana. That'd allow for instant swarming. To increase the swarm I'll try removing the Disciples and 1 mana leak and ponder in favor of 4 Highborn Ghouls

Looks like an awesome build. Looking at the Dark Ascension block I had thought of doing the same thing and damned if I don't jump on here to see one on the top decks lol. Looks fast. If you have the time, I'd like some advice on a new version of T2 Zombie using the Dark Ascension block as well.

Do you think the new two-drop, Thalia, would qualify?

Recommend Solemn Simulacrum. With two heartless summoning it becomes a free cast draw a card and get a land. who doesn't like free acceleration?

Hmm....I've honestly been looking at this for awhile and to be honest I don't get it =/ . Leonin Arbiter wouldn't do anything against the majority of my decks save for the ones that use spells like Harrow to mana ramp. I don't know, I'm pretty new and maybe I just haven't been exposed to formats where this deck would shut someone down....

Hmm.....I'll play test the angel. Seems a little out of place in the human deck, but I suppose if I have the mana a hexproof indestructible is nigh unkillable

I'd put in a Consecrated Sphinx or two in place of Standstill. It gives you drawing power and synergizes with Jace's Erasure. Also, if you add a Temple Bell, suddenly every turn you draw one, they mill two. You tap temple bell, draw one mill 2, they draw one, you draw two mill 4. 6 per turn with no mana cost. Add in Hedron Crabs 3 per turn plus any spell you cast and suddenly they are very milled

its for deck thinning. Since they get played and bring in an untapped land, having four of them essentially makes your deck a 56 card deck. Also, they synchronize with Hedron Crab. Lets say he has two Hedron Crabs out: Play Polluted Delta: opponent mills 6. Sac Polluted Delta and play an Island: opponent mills another 6. For 1 life you just forced the opponent to mill 12, or 1/5 of a standard deck. No consider also that since the mana was untapped, he taps a swamp and the island he just brought out and plays Glimpse of the Unthinkable: he just milled 22 cards in a single turn, which is more than a 3rd of the deck.

So throw in some Journey to no where for white creature hate? I have a buddy who has a tribal vampire deck I fight all the time and basically his deck is annoying for the simple reason that it is chalked full of creature removal: Quag Sickness, Grasp of Darkness, Feast of Blood, Corrupt, Urge to Feed blah blah. I figured the Sun Titan and Asceticism would be a hard counter if those spells allow him to drag the game on beyond the early game phase. I agree though, against any other deck I'd throw out the Sun Titans and Asceticism as they are late geared while this deck accels at early.

The idea wasn't necessarily burn, I just mean to say that for their mana cost they are very easily removed or killed in combat. In regards to the one drops, I just meant that I feel like their are better options. But if you are keeping the Kithkin theme then its fine. I'm just of the mind that if I'm paying 6+ mana for something it should be game changing.

I had the Pilgrim's in there but with how shallow the mana curve is I felt I could replace them with the Hamlet Captain. Mana Acceleration is always a good thing though

Hey, I've never commented on your deck but I've actually looked at it a lot. It looks like a ton of fun and I appreciate the idea of a budget lol. I decided to make a W/G Human deck myself and I'd really appreciate some input. Any help would be much appreciated!
