Nephilim Valor

by gerbilstampede on 19 October 2012

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Creatures (4)


Sorceries (2)


Planeswalkers (2)

Enchantments (7)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Exalted with pump and doublestrike soulbind...also an elephant

UPDATE: Thanks for the input I've decided to go ahead and drop the black and add a bit of token creation to buff the exalted from Sublime Angel. Swapping the Cathedrals for Rogues Passage may try to run 2 of each depending on how my mana fixing goes. Will update the lands when I get a chance to reflect the removal of black cards. Any sideboard suggestions are appreciated!

Looks like a very nice Hard-hitter, not sure the few black cards are worth going tripple colors tho, but I guess it is nice for proper removal. Ace deck!

I agree I hate to go tri-color but not having any real removal is tough as well. The black also lets you sideboard in Golgari Charm to wipe early tokens and you can switch out for the knight of glory to avoid hitting yourself with it. I don't know what else to do to make the deck swing like I want it to and still have a nice removal suite =/. Thanks for the input!

Not sure it's worth including black. Tragic slip is nice, but not worth including it just for that.

Dead Weight should prob be removed. It could be replaced by something like another o-ring, or arrest.

I'm not sure about using Sublime Archangel - it is an amazing card, but would work so much better in a token based deck. With only 21 creature cards here, you're likely to pull 7 in first 13 turns, and most of those will be taken care of by your opponent. Exalted will not generate enough extra attack here.

If you really do want to go down the exalted route, then I'd suggest something akin to increasing devotion.

If you have time, could you take a look at my GWU standard?

That's a good suggestion...If I keep the black I could always toss in a couple Lingering Souls.

might also be worth adding a couple of rogue's passage, since the double strike exalted will mean only 1 thing needs to go through. But then if you add a couple of those, might also be worth including 2* vraska, as the assassins rock, and add a win con. Vraska is also able to defend himself nicely with the + ability, so might work out well.
