This some what of an archetype just because of the colors but i have some differences in the amount of discard i pack along with a variety of creatures and an interesting side board. This is not a very good deck for beginners to play do to the very high coast of the the mana base along with most of the other cards. This is possibly one of the more versatile decks iv built or seen in standard lately. It runs on the fact of having answers for your opponent and dropping very effective casting coast creatures, that get the best for their money. This deck has a very shaky mana base and that is why is runs so many duels and pains. That is what happens when you want double black double white and green by turn 4. This deck certainly has some good 4 drops like Wrath of God, Persecute, Faith’s Fetters and Loxodon Hierarch. If needs those green mana fixers such as Birds of Paradise and farseek to get the base you want to play some jacked up cards. The deck also is mana hungry second turn with needing B/W for castigate or needing G/W for Watch Wolf. Some times you can skip right over the 2 drop and play Call of the Herd turn 2. Everyone loves that unless the opponent has a repeal... sigh. There is lots of removal from WoG, Putrefy, Sudden Death, Faith’s Fetters helps to keep your efficient beats going. Then in your side board you can gain some life while taking out a threat thanks to Hide or you can take out tron with Ghost Quarter or bring in the discard against control decks or get ride of the grave yard with leylin of the void. This can hang with control decks but is much more suited against aggro.
