Deck Description

A Modern Bant Aggro deck that's really fun to play!

How to Play

Bant beatdown with Geist of Saint Traft, or other big creatures like knight of the reliquary. Ideally, this deck has two best draws. T1 Hierarch, T2 Geist, T3 elspeth, give giest +3/+3 and flying and attack for 10 in the air. The other ideal draw is T1 and T2 the same, but T3 rafiq, attack for 12, 8 on the ground, 4 in the air. Mainboard paths, cryptic command, and pridemages help break up combo decks in the mainboard. The deck also runs a one-of Kessig wolf run and stomping ground to buff your geists or other creatures and give them trample, a bit of a flashback to the standard Wolf-run Bant. After sideboarding, dragon's claw is great against burn as well as spellskite. Engineered explosives is good against tokens as it can be left on zero, and also left on zero against splinter twin strategies. Grafdiggers cage is good against lingering souls, and snapcaster mages, as well as collected companies. Relic is good against Tasigur, other tarmogoyf decks, snapcasters, and many other graveyard things. Batterskull is good in many matchups that aren't combo, just for extra lifegain and it's hard to get rid of. The same goes for Spellskite being great in many matchups, and against combo decks too. Leyline of sanctity protects you from hand disruption, burn, and protects your Elspeths from spells as well. Thalia makes combo decks like storm, affinity, and tron, and amulet bloom harder to combo with. Gaddock Teeg prevents wrath effects, splinter twin, most of tron, and many other cards in different decks. Kira is good to side in against Jund, with all of their creature removal. Thrun is, as always, one of the best blockers and beaters in modern and very hard to remove from the board when he hits. Creeping corrosion is against Affinity mostly. Please share the deck and comment if you like it, or you have suggestions. And thanks for taking the time to look at my deck! :D
