Deck Description

This deck is pure soldier. It is built to get cards out fast and start hitting on turn two. each creature builds off each other.
the armored assensions are meant as finishing moves. You can at turn four have at least a 5/5 flying in play without any other creatures in play. With all the buffs that come off the creatures it usually is around 8 or 9 and its hard to stop that early.
the captain bring out four creatures when played and give vigilance and buffs which are a later game card to help create a wall if you cant kill in first 5-6 turns.
i put field marshals in but can be changed with rhox pikmaster if playing tourny same with ballyrush take the two out and put in two more palace guards. its still fast the less mana cost helps a little though getting captain out

i did run it with more creature removal for a while the thing i noticed was it slowed it down some. ive played it quite a few time 1v1 and the speed is the killer, the usual beginning would play out as follows: 1st turn one plains and play elite vanguard, turn 2 plains two and play either armorsmith or another vanguard or honor. that right there gives me two at least power two or three creatures and attack every turn after that. usually one creature comes out every turn till till turn four if i pulled four land i would play an armored ascension and continue hitting thier life. with four plains i also have divine verdict if necessary.
im running two coat of arms you think more would be better?
i dont want to go more than 63 cards worried it might slow it down and if i put more creature removal than i would have to remove creatures?
