Deck: Lots o’ Armor (T2)

This deck relies on one simple combo. Then, that combo is the fuel for many other cards that really feed off of that combo. The one major difference from a lot of combo decks?
you don’t have to pull the combo every time to win.

Lands: (20 cards)
10 Plains
7 Forests
3 Undiscovered Paradise

Spells: (42 Cards)
Green
4 Wall of Blossom
4 Gaea’s Blessing

4 Disenchant
4 Empyrial Armor
4 Soltari Priest
4 Soltari Monk
3 Gerrard’s Wisdom
3 Tithe
2 White Knight
Artifact
2 Spellbook
Sideboard (15 cards)
4 Wrath of God
3 Light of Day
3 Convalescence
3 Choke
2 Constant Mists

As stated above this deck has a core of one big combo: Sylvan Library and Pursuit of Knowledge. This combo will give you seven cards on one turn by skipping the drawing of the three Library cards. Added to this is the Tithe and Undiscovered Paradise (two cards that will make your hand size even bigger). With a huge hand, put an Empyrial Armor on one of the pesky shadow creatures or the White Knight and your opponent is doomed! The blossoms add to your hand and improve defenses while the Wisdom’s have the potential to be worth 20 life points. With the versatile Disenchant and the Gaea’s Blessing (keeps bringing back your good cards, keeps you from getting decked, and allows you to draw a card) this deck is set for an all around solid performance. The sideboard is set to prevent counter decks from shutting you down (Choke) and also preventing any
suicide/sligh decks from leaving you in the dust.
