Deck Description

Taking Doran as the color base of the deck. This deck tries to make a fun, cheaper, competitive, modern alternative to Bob/Goyf decks. Cavern of souls is amazing on tribal decks like this vs control.

It is the usual control/aggro BGW deck. Playtest and comment please.

How to Play

First thing I noticed... Nameless Inversion is an excelent card in this deck, and Thornbite Staff combos well with Vampire Nighthawk, just DON'T run them against Tarmogoyf or you will find yourself feeding him hard (cause if tribal type) currently sideboarded for use vs other decks like Jund.

Put in1 Chameleon Colossus and 1 Thrun, amazing shamans outside of the range of Lightning Bolt, Thrun is pretty persistence. I found myself sometimes needing some heavier drops (4CMC) and those 2 are worth its weigth in gold, they drop for 3 with a banneret too.

Usual sideboard, run Thoughtseize and Inquisition vs combo, and Viridian Shamans, plus an extra Maelstrom pulse vs affinity. For decks without burn, feel free to get an extra Night's Whisper and Tower Defense to help the aggro.

Dude,if your doing shaman tribal you should really think about leaf crowned elder, itll just get you free guys with kinship, since all you creatures are shaman.
Also, dont forget that nameless inversion isnt a pump spell when you have doran on the board, else youll just ruin yourself :P
Nice stuff otherwise, youve covered a lot of bases :D +1 like!

Yeah, Nameless inversion is actually to win trades with Doran on the table. I do like Leaf-Crowned Elder, I'm still figuring out about my 4CMC drop, I guess I'll need at least 2 of them to help with aggro and sideboard Thrun. Ty! :D
