Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

I'm relatively new to magic so i decided to make a casual theme deck that i would like to play on a budget. I know there is a lack of consistency with the rare cards but that i had to cut costs. Cards like Tivadar and Lightwielder Paladin should be in the sideboard but it's a casual deck so i don't play sideboard (plus they both have magnificent art ;). Please leave suggestions as to how to improve this deck in the comments. Cost reduction would be a extremely helpful.

Deck discussion for I don't know what I'm doing

Hey, it's always nice to see new people getting into the game. Welcome! The first problem I see with the deck is of course the inconsistency. I understand you have to cut costs, but getting your hands on a playset of Exemplars is not difficult. Since you already have the 1, it should only take you about 8$. Alot of the cards in this deck simply are not meant for a Knight Tribal deck. Blightsteel has no place in this deck, nor does Darksteel. You must remember that for knight decks to work properly, they must be putting out creatures. They win in swarm. Low costing knights are your friends here, as well as decent spot removal. Remember, it's always better to have multiple mediocre cards than 1of's of good cards. Unless that card is REALLY amazing. :D Get more 4of's, and then you'll be set.

Thanks for the reply. As you say, there are many cards in this deck that do not belong as knight tribal, but i could not resist on adding cards like Blightsteel once i thought of a way of summoning him without hard casting. Futhermore, the one problem i think i have with knights in general is that they lack power and therefore it takes a while to actually do some direct damage (by that time, wurms and hydras are on the board ;D). I know you can pump them up with cards like honor of the pure but where i live, their starting price is around $7-$8 (i have to accept their prices cause i don't trust the qulaity of online cards stores).
