Exactly what it says it is. I realize that soldiers isn't a deck any more, but I couldn't help but put something together just to look at.

One question, where are the Captain of the Watches? Excluding maybe Field Marshall, this is clearly the best solider based pump up. One more question, I run soldiers and I have found Rhox Pikemaster very useful. What do you think? Last thing, Coat of Arms?

I considered Captain of the Watch and turned down the option mostly due to mana cost. I'm not 100% convinced that he can turn a game around by 6th turn... if you're losing by then, you'll lose anyway, but if you're winning by then, you'll win anyway. I just don't think it's fast enough. Rhox Pikemaster is a card I wanted to put in here, but I'm just not sure what to remove. It would probably have to be the Veteran Armorsmiths I'm thinking, but I'm not sure. Coat of Arms is just flat out dangerous. I don't like the card at all since it pumps up your opponents creatures as well. You should've seen when I was drafting and my opponent played Coat of Arms... I used Howl of the Nightpack for 6 the turn after and he had to scoop in the face of the 7/7 wolves he helped create. Thanks for the suggestions btw :)
I think that it's better to remove Arid Mesas and Marsh Flats and put more normal Plains instead, because there is no reason, why to lose life. Then I that Captains of the Watch are playable when they're summoned from Preeminent Captain, but he is not here, too. Well, I don't think that this is bad deck.
Hey, nice deck. I'm trying to make the archetypal decks for the 5 basic tribals. Could you check out the soldier one? Thanks. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=256755
