Deck Description

A casual Marchesa deck. Many bothersome creature in there that get +1/+1 counter easily, comboing well with Marchesa. Really simple and straightforward deck.

I have built my own Marchesa and I need help for the final cut, if you feel like taking a look it would be appreciated.

There's nothing really wrong about your deck as it is I think...it look fun and like you already noted for it some cards must be cut (keep it at 100 cards max, always). The biggest thing with Marchesa is that it's pretty easy to build around. Two things to look at when you're looking for cards that would go well in a Marchesa decks are creatures that get +1/+1 counters easily by themselves and/or creatures that have really good come into play effect.

There is some cards you can easily replace by better cards like Vengeful Vampire for exemple...sure it has undying but it's not really good. Vampire Nighthawk is way better and if you can attack with it while Marchesa is on the board then it can become really aggravating really quiclky.Some easy choice (and good one) to put in your deck would be Glen Elendra Archmage.

Don't underestimate some basic cards like Mirri the Cursed...in the long run a reccurring Mirri can be quite annoying. Your deck would also need a better mana curve...too many spell at 4. Apart from that your deck is sure as good as mine if not better I think or at least different and as fun :)

I suggest you replace Go For The Throat with Dreadbore to manage Planeswalkers.

I have almost made it for my deck, still need to cut 2 cards; if you care to look I could use some help. :)

I already thinked about it but have no Dreadbore. Also not a lot of people play Planeswalker in my groups since we play multiplayers a lot and they just don't stay in play. That's why I kept Go fro the Throat instead since it's an instant but if I had to replace it I would go for Hero's Downfall before Dreadbore (again, instant speed).
