I hate combo-tribes. In our Tribal format we'd not allow those because they're more Combo than Tribal, if that makes sense. Granted, Clerics are a banned tribe anyway....but you get the idea =P

True Believer is great, especially with Grand Arbiter. I wanted this deck to function like the original Cleric decks -- Protection/Prevention with constant "nickle and dime" themes throughout. I think I achieved my goal =]

My buddy has a brutal Maralen EDH, and I can tell you from 2 vs 2 games (or 2 vs 2 vs 2) that Seizan is amazing with her =]

I don't think Purity is a goat though. I mean it's creature type isn't obviously...I mean the artwork =/

You've got 8 Fauna Shaman...Otherwise, nifty man. A regular at our shop uses a pretty similar R/G Shaman tribal and it's a contender...Shaman is another of those tribes that's underestimated IMO.

His uses Leaf-Crowned Elder in it, which is sexy when used with Wolf-skull. He also uses Dragonmaster Outcast, who is a beast if the opponent doesn't deal with him, and a hate-magnet if they do =]

Hope that helps dude =]

Man, I love Phantasmagorian. The name is on par with Thraximundar, Borborygmos, and the like...and the artwork is awesome, exactly how I imagine a "Horror" would look -- Just a mess of claws, flesh, guts, and teeth =P

It's interesting to see it used for Dredge, but technically its ability IS Dredge...Only better somehow O_o

I've heard it both ways to be honest, so I guess it comes down to preference. Personally I think 2 is kinda harsh...especially against certain decks/Generals that can quickly chunk up the cost to play your gen. (Teysa, for example =P)

Hahaha, I wish he was a cleric, because that guy's great. I use him and Suture Priest (and the 'Soul Sisters') in a nasty life shift deck.

Impressive list here, and having played against these, Chalice is a necessity. I'm not too fond of the Sinkholes though. I think Hymn would be much better in the slot and would overall provide more stall in the long run. Another thing is that with 2-drops and up dominating your curve, Bob is going to hurt after a while. That is, unless you're using him for the higher speed compared to Arena. Otherwise I'd consider the Arena.

Hope that helps man =]

I know what you mean about the PW's, but I actually chose these 5 because each one of them has multiple uses in the deck.

Sarkhan is a battery for the tokens, and with the +1 ability giving haste, helps me to avoid wipes. His -2 is good for dealing with any big threatening blockers so the tokens can get through.

Garruk Wildspeaker's +1 is unbelievably strong for this deck. Untap a Gaea's Cradle and Vastwood?! Yeah, that's nuts. His -4 IS overrun, and is great for that purpose if I even need it (I often don't). Even his -1 is insane with Doubling Season out.

Garruk, Primal Hunter has a +1 that's the same as Wildspeaker's -1...that's awesome. His -3 with Ulasht and some of the other fatties in this deck is ABSURD, often more than refilling my hand. And his -6? Holy balls man.

Chandra's +1 is kinda dinky, but it's surprised me with its subtle usefulness (such as, pinging their commander back to the Command Zone?). Her -2 is awesome, and is the main reason she's the first version of Chandra to see competitive play. Her -6 is glorious in EDH. Notice it gives you full choice over who to nail with 6 friggin' damage? With the politics of EDH, this is golden.

Koth's +1 makes very strong (4/4!) attackers that I can untap with Wildspeaker if I want. This is nice as a "big guy" among many little dudes to add some threat. His -2 is mana ramp, and a lot of it. That's always nice in EDH. His -5 is amazing for clearing away blockers, holding off attackers (say, after you launch a big attack and have few blockers), and for keeping other Generals at bay.

I get that they're expensive, but I didn't just say "Oh hey, I'll just toss as many PW's in this deck as I can", I actually considered the uses of each one. =]

Well that's why I said he'd at least be something to consider. Maybe he won't be good for the deck, but he would essentially make Harbingers 3/3's for 1, Leaf Crown a 5/5, Banneret a 3/3, etc.

Man, you could easily run Doran in here without even splashing. I do it in my Treefolk tribe and it works flawlessly =]

Just something to consider, otherwise I like it =]

Garruk serves as an Overrun, but on top of that, this thing dumps out so many tokens that I don't even really need something like that.
