See the actual awesome thing about Mardu Aggro is that it is not super expensive. So you might be able to trade for alot of the stuff easily. I'm on a phone now so when I can get to a computer I will totally hook up some advice. I used to have this deck so maybe I can even get you some cards.

Re: Kaboom deck (5 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
I am fairly certain that no damage will be dealt. When Blasphemous Act resolves, the Mark of Asylum's effect will replace the Boros Reckoner's ability when the game tries to assign damage. Unless someone has a better way yo explain or a for sure ruling.
You can also go to http://chat.magicjudges.org/mtgrules/ for questions like this.

As far as I know you still have to enter them in one by one as well as change the individual quantity of each card. I know it can sometimes be a pain but it is also just a small inconvenience.

Re: Can you please fix the prices? (4 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
To be fair, Den Protector literally spiked up in price mid PT this weekend as well as Atarka. In fact they both only spiked up in price on the 11th late in the day (I am talking about like at 3pm on the west coast of the US) according to MTGstocks. This would give a high chance that when you accepted the trade things were fair but luck would not be on your side.
So really, you are expecting instant real time price changes. This was honestly just a trade done with horrible timing. I dont think you should fault Deckbox for this.

Re: [Standard] Preeminent Captain + Soldiers (32 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
You completely ignored blue as an option then? one of the strongest aggro decks around is UW heroic (which is full of soldiers), you could easily splash red for things like jeskai charm and blue gives you evasion. The heroic creatures are very difficult to deal with and the colors have built in tools against control.
IMO, bile blight and heroes downfall don't really belong in an aggro deck. Neither do sorin or Ajani. i think you need to get back to the core of what the deck is about and that's putting down sticky threats and applying consistent pressure
also the heroic creatures are individually stronger than the soldier's your playing. You're to deep on making the captain work. If they blow up the captain your hosed.
EdiT: taking a 2nd look you're far closer to a midrange deck than an agro deck, might as well slap in some rhinos and more removal than perusing the captain plan.
last thought, ditch the evolving wilds, you're better off running basics for tempo reasons. You're not delving for anything so there's no reason to force them.
The awesome thing about Sorin is he still helps applying pressure in the form of getting Vampire tokens when you need them or gaining that life and pumping your creatures. He is good in this deck if you keep him as a 2-of.
I would also not really consider this as much of an aggro deck and say it is more of a tempo deck. So having efficient threat removal is a good thin if used in a strategic manner.

If you are going to sell cards, you need to use the Deckbox.org built-in seller account functionality.
To be fair, he does have a sellers account, just posting in the wrong forum.

Re: [Standard] Preeminent Captain + Soldiers (32 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
I like Dromoka's Command. I forgotten about this card. This is a good call. That way the opponensts Lightning Strikes and Stokes dont affect you as much and you can also fight your way through blockers. I love it. I kinda think it should be a full 4 if you can get access to them. I kinda like Ajani's Presence in the SB. Is there a reason of only 1 Hero's Downfall? That would really help in the Abzan Control matchup
Sorry I have not been responding as much as I would like too. Been planning my daughters 1st birthday party so I have been busy

Re: [Standard] Preeminent Captain + Soldiers (32 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
Yes, this does mean that Brimaz will no longer get you a token. Also means Ankleshanker will not give First Stike and Deathtouch. I do understand what you mean with losing removal, but there is replacements. Banishing Light is usable, as well as Suspension Field. Valorous Stance is removal and protection. Glare of Herasy as SB removal. If you want to keep red then all good. Just pointing out what I have seen work in the past.

Re: [Standard] Preeminent Captain + Soldiers (32 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
No problem. I figured that it wasnt your only huge play but you should still know. Honestly, I like the deck alot. I honestly think that you should drop the Red and pick up Green. I have seen it done before and it can absolutely wreck someone. He went:
T1: Forest then Elivish Mystic
T2: Plains then Captain
T3: Attack and bring out Anafensa or Brimaz. He also had mana up for Gods Willing or Valourous Stance. It me hands down. Ill edit to say more since I am at work right now

Re: [Standard] Preeminent Captain + Soldiers (32 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
The perfect hand for me would be..
Turn 1: plains + Soldier of the Pantheon
Turn 2: plains + Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit
Turn 3: mountain + Preeminent Captain
Turn 4: mountain + Fabled Hero + Hammerhand --Preeminent captain attacks bringing in another preeminent captain who brings out Brimaz, King of Oreskos + 1/1 cat soldier (20 damage if unguarded)Alternate turn 2-4:
Turn 2: Temple of Silence
Turn 3: mountain + Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit + Hammerhand
Turn 4: mountain + Preeminent Captain + Hammerhand / Bringing in the 2nd preeminent captain + Brimaz, King of Oreskos + 1/1 cat token (14 damage if unguarded)
Just a nit-pick, when you attack with Preeminent Captain and bring in a second Preeminent Captain, you do not get to bring in another creature. The Captains ability only triggers when you declare it as an attacker in the Declare attacker step. When you do only then will it trigger his ability. The second one comes into play and has never been declared as an attacker so he gets no trigger.
