The deck was built around Nicol Bolas and Liliana, and then Sorin came out and just fitted in, but Chandra i still have no clue

if it was built around a card, shouldn't you run 4 of it? I am just poking at you, trying to see what your reasoning is in card choices.

True, but all three planeswalker are costly (mana)
This deck is also met for fast pace play, it takes at most ten turns to finish the match

If it was meant for fast paced play, then why would you play High Costing cards? Also, what does 4 of a card in the deck have to do with Mana Cost? This is a rule of thumb: If costs more than 5 Mana, and does not win you the game nearly immediantly... Then it really probably is not that good. Just throwing that out to you, not to mention Planeswalkers are so easily killed it is not even funny.

Point taken, but if all you have is counters, land, and a planeswalker or two, what are you going to do, and yes this has happened to me on multiple occasions, and you can still pull through even if they can try and kill of your planeswalkers.

Exactly, another point, why bother with the Planeswalker cards? I usually ignore em anyway. I am just trying to make you think a little more in depth about how Planeswalkers work and their reliability. Especially playing 1 of a card you must have. Garruk is the best Planeswalker, think about it alittle.

agreed, but have you seen nicol bolas, have you seen liliana, let alone have you kept them alive long enough to do there last ability, let alone both in the same game,

I have seen them, infact, I own a near playset of all the Planeswalkers. I have seen what they do, but against a very good player, those abilities are never going to go off. I have watched players tap out all their Mana for their beloved Planeswalker, only to see if die next turn because of a few measly creatures. Or just seen it countered, or Vindicated... lol I loved the Vindicate event... so hilarious. Dont believe or think what I am saying is right? If not, look at the burn-ish deck posted on the new decks right now and look at the Forced Dreams V2 list under the Popular Decks section. People who usually listen to me or atleast think about what I am saying turn out a whole lot better. I do not want to smother you, I want to increase your ability and potential.

And your points are all valid. I can remove chandra, but again I have learned to wait until you have enough mana to play the planes walker and a counter, or waiting tell their tapped out.

And thats a pretty long time, so long you will most likely be dead. Just being honest, atleast you see my points though. Even if you hold a counter for their counter though, they still get to untap and have a full set up before you have a chance to protect him again though.

again, point taken. and i see where your coming from, so any ideas for it, preferably type 2 and fairly inexpensive, i am on a buget

Unfortunately, I do not play much of Type 2... BUT! I can tell you a few tips: Keep the deck Consistant, Keep it Simple (Best Plans are Simple and Easily Changed), Keep it at 60 Cards, Metagame like a BIATCH, keep cards with high costs a VERY minimum, Ask yourself why and how many?, Playtest, and of course my favorite: LOSE. When you lose, you think. If you win, you do not think. Kinda a funny thing isn't it? Even I am guilty of it (trying to get better), when I love I actually think about what went wrong and think of ways I can remedy the situation or even if what caused me to lose was not just sheer luck? Keep that in mind aswell, no matter how fine tuned and toned a deck is (Even my, I am above NO exceptions) you are going to lose and you ARE going to have bad draws and you WILL have one day sometimes where no matter who it is you are playing (better than you or bottom of the barrel) you are going to lose to them because your luck that day is just garbage. I always struggled with that problem the most starting out a ton. For this deck though, Invest in the new Fetchlands because they are a great opportunity for players who do not have the old ones and try adding more creatures with effects while keeping creature removal pretty high. I think you should have some evasive creatures that are not as easy to remove here, Troll Ascetic is a good example even though you cannot play him. If you are going for Aggro, add more creatures, if going for Control, leave it like this but think about your deck like I said to.

Look at my decks if you want to see what I mean, comment if you like and rate them if you want to. Check back on em later and I will have answers for you and advice for why I do this or this. My deck ratings are not much of issue to me, most people do not like my stuff because it is competitive so I just already know they wont be high ratings.

thanks, and you have made me think about what is in here. I agree you have your bad days, last state a pulled last place with a lowryn and mornigtide merfolk deck. This the time shards came out, so there was a lot of that, bant was the most common.

It happens, and no matter what you can not control it. The thing is though, realizing when it is that or if it is you or the deck. Being able to look at your deck and say, this is why I lost is what makes people better.

It happens, even to me :P Like in my Worldgorger Dragon Combo deck. Sliver Queen is in there, even though there is a better combo. I love Spiritmonger, even though he does not have a deck.
