Hi, nice deck.
I think it could get some improvements so. First, I agree with yardsalejesus : better run 4
Vicious Conquistador than 4
duskborne skymarcher for instance. You do not need much 1-drop in this deck, because you have the token for that. So except for
Vicious Conquistador for the ability or
sacred cat that is a very good with anointed procression, I think you don't need more than that.
Then I believe you should run at least 3 anointed processions. There are several reasons for that (see below).
- I think
Bishop's soldier is not a nice 2 drop for your deck. Two reasons for that. You already have the insanely better
Gifted aetherborn and you generate a lot of vampire token with
lifelink. You better put more
vicious conquistador or
Mavren Fein, Dusk Apostle or another vampire/creature with a better ability:
Bloodcrazed Paladin,
Skymarch bloodletter,
metallic mimic.
-
Call to the feast looks nice at first sight but as a 4 mana drop, it makes sense only if
Anointed procession is on the board which will not be consistent with only one of them in your deck. When it comes to token generation,
Legion's landing +
anointed procession is a better bet as you will be able to generate 1, 2 or 3 tokens
each turn (depending of the number of
anointed procession on the board) for 3 mana in the middle/late game. And you can do it anytime you could cast an instant. When it comes to
Queen's commission, I believe the conclusion is the same. I do not say they are bad cards but I believe that in your deck when it comes to the mana cost of those cards, I think you will rather choose to cast another card :
* 4 mana : you want to first cast
anointed procession for the extra token then
Sanctum seeker(for the extra damage/life ) or one of your 5 drop if you have the 5th land the next turn.
* 3 mana : you better cast Mavrein that will give you a creature + a token (or 2 with
anointed procession) etc...
The only case where
Call to the feast and
queen's commission might be a better option is when the board has been cleaned by
fumigate /
hour of devastation or some effects of that sort.
Other cards to consider :
-
Hidden stockpile does not create vampire token, but it costs only 2 mana and will replace some of the permanent(token are permanent) you lose and it will combo with
anointed procession later in the game. No vampire but you can still use them to block or sacrifice them to Yahenni or Bontu or use them to scry.
-
Bishop of the bloodstained -
Arguel's Blood Fast : gives you a draw option and if the situation deos not go well for you bad, it can gives the extra mana you need to
fumigate the board, run a 4+ drop or an alternative way to gain life.
-
Ruthless Knave : Another option to draw cards and there is a synergy with
anointed procession-
Bontu the glorified: another nice option to use your extra mana to scry and deals some damage/lifegain. And you have plenty of tokens to sacrifice to make it works. All that to get a 4/6 menace, indestructible creature for a 3 mana, really ? it's the hardest god to kill as it even resists to
hour of devastation and
exile it will still cost at least 3 mana to your opponent so it's even a trade of mana. At least you should have it in your sideboard.
-
Anointer priest : always good with token
- Need a way to make your token better? Some
metallic mimic or
Inspiring roar could be great and this is another reason why
Bishop's soldier should not be in this deck.
Metallic mimic will be better in every ways . If you still want to play
Queen's commission and
Call to the feast , you should play those cards and anointed priest because then the synergies will be great with lot of life gain and your vampire
lifelink tokens will become 2/2 to 5/5 token.
Hope it helps
