Hello,

I'm new in the standard format and i'm trying to improve my abzan renown friends deck, can you help me with a little advice?

Thanks a lot

I'm probably NOT the person who can give advice on improving the deck. What I would recommend is playing it and seeing where it falls short. To look at the cards and the sample hands I've drawn, I like the look, feel and synergy of the cards and the deck as a whole. My personal thought is that it seems a little mana-heavy, and I would probably swap out a couple of the lands, probably 2 of the fetch lands, for something else--like one more Hero's Downfall and maybe a 4th Azban Charm.

I repeat, though, that I tend to think it is better to try to play a deck and see where it falls short and what works well with it, ideally in a casual friendly game but against a deck that would be competitive in Standard. If you don't have that kind of environment, you might want to test it against a pre-constructed deck. (I have been playing some of mine against the Elspeth vs Kiora decks and have been very disappointed in my attempts.)

Hi,
I just tryed out your deck. I noticed that your deck got a mana problem.
You have got a 65% chance to have one black mana in your 4th turn. So i would remove haro's Downfall from your deck! Furthermore you should add more lands producing black mana.
Anafenza, the Foremost and Abzan Ascendancy would be good for your deck.
In my Opinion the creatures with the renown effect are rather week.

If you wanna try a Deck with just 2 Types of mana, here is a short idea for a slightly different deck


//Lands (20)
10 Forest
10 Plains

//Spells (18)
1 Ajani, Mentor of Heroes
4 Dromoka's Command
3 Gleam of Authority
4 Hardened Scales
3 Inspiring Call
4 Collected Company

//Creatures (22)
3 Scourge of Skola Vale
2 Abzan Falconer
2 Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit
4 Avatar of the Resolute
4 Servant of the Scale
2 Managorger Hydra
4 Warden of the First Tree

//Sideboard
1 Tuskguard Captain

I understand the problem with de hero's downfall, so i changed it for another abzan charm.
But the lands i dont agree so much, take one or two out dont feel so right for me...

I really thanks you guys for your comments

I was thinking in put this little pretty Hidra to the deck...
What do you think??

Hidra manainsaciable - Managorger Hydra

It depends!!! Your deck is not good rigth now.
First you need a strategie. Then find the best cards for that strategie.
Decide what format you wanna play... I guess you wanna play standard 
You don't play Abzan for a +1/+1 counter deck!

This is a Abzan deck

 Fleecemane Lion
 Rakshasa Deathdealer
 Siege Rhino
 Wingmate Roc
 Courser of Kruphix
 Anafenza, the Foremost
 Tasigur, the Golden Fang
 Abzan Charm
 Bile Blight
 Hero's Downfall
 Thoughtseize

You mixed a counter deck with a abzan deck. Here are some mistakes
Collected Company + Siege Rhino (bad combo decide for one card!)

Undercity Troll Citadel Castellan Topan Freeblade are bad there are much better cards like Managorger Hydra.
But first decide if you wanna play a counters deck or NOT
you need good removals, protection, draw, strong creatures
Servant of the Scale + Avatar of the Resolute and synergie
I already gave you some advise for a deck with counters
