Deck discussion for Flying/Spirits

Hi Chewrida,

I also made a spirit deck. Actually, its part of a set of 4 decks based on the Gold Captain cards; Drogskol Captain, Diregraf Captain Deck, Stromkirk Captain Deck, Immerwolf Deck.

Here's the deck list to my Drogskol Captain deck maybe it will give you ideas.

Artifacts

Creatures
4x Phantasmal Image
2x Doomed Traveler
2x Delver of Secrets
4x Snapcaster Mage
2x Geist of Saint Traft
4x Drogskol Captain
Land
4x Seachrome Coast
2x Evolving Wilds
4x Glacial Fortress
4x Plains
5x Island
1x Swamp
2x Moorland Haunt
Spells
4x Vapor Snag
1x Gut Shot
3x Mana Leak
4x Ponder
2x Midnight Haunting
4x Lingering Souls

Sideboard
4x Revoke Existence
4x Surgical Extraction
3x Timely Reinforcements
4x Flashfreeze

If you compare my deck list to your typical tournament winnning elver list there is alot of over lapping.
Delver tends to play Restoration Angel or Invisible Stalker instead of Drogskol Captain and Sword of War and Peace and/or Sword of Feast and Famine instead of 2x Runechanter's Pike.

Thanks for your input, and yea i'm thinking it might be a good idea to switch out condemn for something, maybe vapor snag. and I really want to get ahold of a couple phantasmal image for this deck. and I was also thinking about another honor of the pure, tho i'm unsure if i wanna add another or just take it out. And i really do like doomed traveler it's just annoying that i have to kill him first to get my flying spirit, tho it is nice i see to have 2 creatures packed into a 1 drop, I've always been iffy about him because i really just wanna get everything out with flying and all my mass buffs to hit killing shot as quick as possible. Tho a day of judgement might ruin my day which is why i can see doomed traveler being a good back-up for that. But i like the phantasmal image idea for in here, thanks!

Thanks for your suggestions planestalker

btw does phantasmal image become a copy of what the creatures color is too or does it stay blue?

Hi Chewrida,

Color is a copiable characteristic. As such, the Phantasmal Image-Strangleroot Geist is a green creature. For color to not be copied, it has to explicitly say so in the effect (see Vesuvan Doppelganger ).
