Deck Description

This deck mainly uses defenders...

-overgrown battlement and axe bane guardian allow for rapid mana gain

-wall of omens and mentor to the meek allow you to keep using this mana by drawing more cards, mentor of the meek works for nearly every creature card in this deck and this deck is roughly half creatures

-when you get a sizable amount of defenders you can then lay down assault formation at the drop of a hat and rape your enemy when he will least expects it causing major devastation, assault formation and wakestone gargoyle allow for the walls to attack

-If that is not going to well you can use the mass amount of mana to turn the lab expirement into a 13/13 with trample and attack with him once he is transformed for only 10 mana

-Trotsani will be giving out a fair amount of health especially when the Tree of Redemption is dropped, to further this combo when you sacrifice tree of redemption to feed the pack this will further increase the amount of health received

-If the game is still going on somehow you can drop feed the pack and kill off the Tree of Redemption and wall of omens in order to feed the pack for a large token army and assault formation can be used to increase the effectiveness of the token army by using its 2nd ability which will essentially give each token +1/+1 for every time it is used

-Its worth noting that stalwart with assault formation essentially gives defenders +2/+2 and the Unified Will and Bant charm will keep the wipes away and Gravity well to keep everybody on the same level

If you guys have any suggestions or comments I would love to hear them, so far this deck has been a blast to play. The true beauty of it is that you will have a solid defense early in the game, and by mid game will be able to strike hard

Deck discussion for 1. Modern Defender Assault FIN

You have no way to interact with other decks...
This makes you automatically lose game one to any combo deck or tron.
Fish and affinty wouldnt have any issues.
Besides zoo, i can't think of a single deck this could beat without removal.

Spellskite should be an auto include.

Not being a dick, but if you post a deck as "modern" going to hudge it as such.

Spellskite is a little to spendy for my blood haha, even for Magic online so I went with Bant Charm and Unified Will which I think should do the trick in keeping my Defenders safe

It's cool i understand budget, if you can afford them path to exile is top tier removal and while pack is cute, seems like a pipe dream as you need your ramp creatures to survive.(not so much that it won't be cast off ramp creatures and 19 lands, just a bit unlikely.
I'm not saying remove it, because i literally can't think of a replacement option, but something may come up.

"Perimeter Captain" seems like a great sideboard card for burn/aggro decks though.
