Oh I can't and certainly won't deny that, but it has frog in the name!

Also flavour text is 10/10

I would love to have him in, however I think my opponent might call shenanigans if I tried to claim him as valid in a Pauper deck :D

A Frog deck with no 'Turn to Frog'? ..... Blasphemy!

Also if you can/want to splash white in Shields of Velis Vel could have it's uses.

I've actually designed a load of silly tribal decks before so here are the first three I made; an Antelope an Advisor and a Ally tribal deck

The Antelope one actually only has 18 creatures in it but since I built it before the challenge was set, so it is what it is :D

Just because they've worked well for me I'd suggest these two:
Weathered Wayfarer
Gavony Township
Non-basic land fetch is always handy, especially if it results in +1/+1 to all your creatures each turn.

Maybe Soul/Essence Wardens too; with all those tokens from Rhys they may well pack a punch in the health department.

I put them on the sideboard to let people who might see the deck decide what they'd include and use as the basis for their win conditions if they want to try it out.

Yeah she is, pretty sure even in the 2 mana challenge she can be made into a power combo with Tarmogoyf; not here though.
Not sold that this deck is well rounded, I have a feeling I should've included life gain somehow and at least a couple combat tricks, but meh I'll playtest it later and find out.

And yet another, and that'll probably do me for a while now.

Finally got off my arse and made a 2 mana deck, probably add more soon enough:

A fair enough, I checked Ulamog and Kozilek on gatherer and stupidly just assumed that since they were good the last titan was too, ah well no biggie he's my least favourite anyway and I'm mainly keeping them for countermill/overdraw saving more than their offensive capacity.

Thanks for the correction.

Yeah I was going to say about win condition then I realised Jace's Ult; I thought that's why you had so many, so you could guarantee activating it.
You could always add Lab Maniac if you really want.

Remand would combo with the scepter nicely once you get one of your 'can't cast more than one spell per turn' cards on the field,
also snapcaster might not work so well with the aforementioned effect so maybe drop him?

Sorry if it made no sense; it was meant as a response to Jessie/coolwip4865 regarding my usage of cards based on their rarity and in particular what my usage with Rancor would be, I must of posted my comment just moments after you posted, your post wasn't even up on my screen when I posted.

With Rancor I suppose I would be limited to a max of 3 of them, which is a shame since it's a nice card.

Guess current rulings are more important to me than traditional older ones, silly white mages with their outmoded archaic draconian rules; we blue mages shall adapt, embrace change faster and thrive for it! :D

There's another reason I'm not taking 4 of the devil and nor of things like Spikeshot Elder is I have self imposed limits on usage of cards based on their rarity: if it's mythic max of 1, rare max of 2, uncommon max of 3 and commons can take all 4.
I've always felt it was kind of weird having more of a card that's supposedly some kind of legendary creature than a common little goblin, anyway a wee look into my design reasons there.

Time for an equipment deck to chuck up there on the board.

Overwhelmed yet Kazzong? seems you've given yourself quite the workload with those little wandering ones, you sure they're leading you somewhere that allows you a break :O

I think they can work: Viridian Longbow/Deathtouch combo makes for a mean combo, since I switched this deck to enchantment I may remake an equipment deck, see what can be done.

I've been wondering how powerful Aqueous Form would be in this format, drawing is hard to manage and scry helps, might combo with Curiosity for predictable draw.
Some scry lands might come in tapped but multicolour lands may help with any possible mana fixing issues that occur.

Either way you got a thumbs up!

Although the colour pie shows blue it's only due to the multicolour R/U cards so can't fit blue cards, as for direct removal personally I feel that most creatures in this format don't have the bodies to withstand burn and burn is also flexible enough for direct damage to the opponent if there are no viable creatures to burn.

However, Taste For Mayhem, Figure Of Destiny are very tempting takes they might be the cards to finally help me decide whether I should choose go enchantment or artifact and enchantment seems to be winning now!
