Deck Description

An awesome soulbond deck i am currently working on, i have a few of the cards, but still need a few more.

Suggestions are welcome.

How to Play

Just Soulbond everything! Certain Pairings with certain creatures are better than others though, like the Silverblade Paladin/Nightshade Peddler pairing, that one gives you an unstoppable Double Strike + Deathtouch combo. There is also the Engulfing Slagwurm/ Pathbreaker Wurm Combo, that one makes the Engulfing Slagwurm unblockable due to its effect. Although there are better uses for it, Cloudshift can be used to change the parings of some of the creatures (i.e. I just summoned Nightshade Peddler and I want my Silverblade Paladin that is currently paired with Nearheath Pilgrim, paired to Nightshade Peddler, so I use Cloudshift on Silverblade Paladin to unpair it, then re-pair it with Nightshade Peddler when it re-enters the battlefield). Revenge of the Hunted is best used on Engulfing Slagwurm. This causes Engulfing Slagwurm to become a 13/13 trample and it must be blocked by all able creatures, causing all of your opponent's creatures to die by its effect while you gain life equal to the collective toughness's of all your opponent's creatures. Since Engulfing Slagwurm has trample now, it still makes it through to your opponent's life, dealing at least 13 damage (one of my other decks uses this combo).

Deck discussion for G/W Soulbond

I would add at least two copies of Geist Trappers for some protection from flying and Revenge of the Hunted has the down side of all of your opponents creatures blocking the target so you may consider adding Terrifying Presence to prevent all damage dealt except target creature to keep you creature alive and maintain the rest of your creatures for blockers. You can use that combo for a total cost of {1}{g}{g}
if you miracle the Revenge

Those are some good points, I hadn't considered terrifying presence, or how well it would work with revenge of the hunted, thanks for the help.

While I love Elixir of Immortality and Archangel's Light, I'd swap all of those out for Fogs. A few well placed fogs should prevent you from losing a lot of the life you would gain from Elixir and Archangel's Light. Or so I would think. Between the Fogs, Divine Deflection (one of my favorite cards from Avacyn), and Terrifying presence you should be able to hold out pretty well even if you have a flying weakness

The reason i keep a couple copies of the Elixir of Immortality and Archangel's Light is because they help against Mill decks, which a lot of people i know use one. They give me a better chance when playing against one so long as they don't get milled. Plus, even when not playing against one, the extra life is great and i can get back any instants and sorceries, which not many cards do for green or black.

Thanks for the advice, I'll think about adding the Fogs.

With a lot of large monsters in your deck, I wouldn't worry about getting milled and toss out the elixirs, drop in 4 birds of paradise in order to help you get your mana building up faster. possibly 2-4 avacyn pilgrims. Despite the majority of flying cards out now, I can see some of your largest costing, and smallest costing cards being mana leaked, ob ringed, exiled. etc. You may want to keep some of the low cost soulbounds and toss in some gladescouts or sacred wolfs. just my two cents.

I suppose thats a good idea, especially since the soulbond creatures can really power up even a 1/1 and make it a threat. I thought i would just add cards like autumn's veil or naturalize into the sideboard to swap out depending on who i was playing against. I don't know about the birds of paradise, not sure how well they would work in this deck, since most of it is only 3 mana or less. I'll add in a few sacred wolves and gladecover scouts, thanks for the help.
