I think Accumulated Knowledge, AEther Burst and Signal Pest could be replaced with something more on theme.Corwin72 wrote:I will work on that this morning.
I welcome new ideas on this. I can not think of anything else to do to make the deck more interesting.

Lead the Stampede currently has no AI (but should be easy to add).
EDIT: OK, now I see it. Garruk's Packleader is an engine here. Can probably be reinforced by substituting the big creatures with more mid range ones (for example Call of the Herd).

I would leave the Hydra but the Titan and Wurm could go.
I just thought with Garruk and the acceleration you would be able to play a few big creatures.

Since the AI does not use the mana pool Garruk can't accelerate into bigger spells only more spells per turn.Corwin72 wrote:I would leave the Hydra but the Titan and Wurm could go.

What does "ono W Knights deck mean"?
I see that as the information about the medium White Knight deck.

A typo. It should be "Mono".

I fixed the typo in the deck description for White Knight 2 and White Knight 3.

Horror
This is a crappy deck. I am just going through the list of creature types to find large groups of creatures that have not had a deck made of them.
Blackheart?

The following decks look nice: Green Arrow 2, Optimus Prime 3(?) and Demon 3.
The Beast deck is also ok, but the name suggests a tribal beast deck (maybe we can just call it Garruk?).

Since there are a lot of tribes in Magic I would rather concentrate on those which have at least one tribal card that justifies building a deck around it (I know we have some tribal decks without real tribal support).Corwin72 wrote:Horror

Not a problem. I am just running out of legitimate tribes.

There are a number of Horror type creatures that could be the basis for a theme deck of some sort. Hunted Horror for example?
I do not think that we have any Hunted type decks, not sure what one would look like though.
