Deck Description

UPDATE:
This deck has been playing great. so far it is 18-5 vs other top tier decks adjust the maindeck slightly on adding a 4th arbor elf and removing a wolfir to help almost always getting the 1st turn mana dork.

also i added the 4th thalia and selesnya charm to the sideboard and 2 fogs
I realized that thalia is not just good but great and as far as selesnya charm finaly learned its true power took a while that i could rancor a early game delver, or messenger or later game olivia to use the charm to exile them, which stated a few heated discussions lol

also i added the fogs because only deck i have had alot of trouble with was epic expirement control decks so when i always get then down to 34 or less then they go off and get 2 turns in a raw with 10+ 1/1 tokens and no one ever expects fog to be played so it catches them off guard and next turn i swing for the kill


i built selesnya aggro and the deck worked good not great after alot of thought a few hours and a few beers i got to thinking about going to midrange style. the deck was to slow since i wasnt about to fork out 80 dollars or most my trade binder to get a playset of thragtusk's. So i mixed the best of both decks and to my suprise i think i cam on to something this deck works great and it has tons of synergy together. give it a look

Still not to sure about the side board that has always been my weakness

That was what I meant and does no one play with pillar flame where your at? Also primal hunter is supposed to be played and sac Ed to draw cards if you have sublime or silverheart out your easily drawing 8+ cards which makes control cry

Faith's Shield - 4 of them. I can't emphasize their importance enough in a format full of bant control and red burn spells; as not only do they protect u, but they can get you through blockers too.

This deck has a lot of mana to start with, and you have mana ramp cards which really are not needed. I would try switching them out for Thragtusk (I know you dont have any but when you come across some) and Vorapede. You could probably leave one of the two mana ramp creatures in there just in case. Move Sublime to SB and move 2x Sigarda to main and add 2x Odric to main. This will allow you to be a more aggresive aggro deck. Lastly I would switch Selesnya for Rootborn into the main deck to prevent sweeps and all out swings/defense. Hope this helped, it's what I would do atleast.

If your going a pretty human route you can drop the arbor elf (probably drop him anyway) and add champion of the parish switch out strangleroot for knight of glory (a great card anyway cause if pro black)
Then switch smiter for mayor of avabruck drop Wolfir silverheart for oblivion ring
Then leave sublime at top it makes for a hellacious finisher occasionally
Thi takes back to Aggro thou

Man ur deck is garbage thragtusk is absaulutly necessary in this meta. 4 sublime is just atrociously dumb. Why would u ever run wolfire with silverblade u can only be soulbound with 1 at a time????

I would say calling it garbage is a bit strong! It does however need some tweaking.
Thrags are $20 each, OUCH, maybe sub Centuar Healers for the Thrag.
Drop to 3 Sublimes, and go with two of each Wolfirer and Silverblade.
Also Resto Angel would fit the deck nicely.
Good luck.
