Cathars' Crusade

Enchantment

Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.

Abaques on Death by Tokens

Kambal is a pretty sweet design, though I think you're maybe trying to go in a few too many directions.

Since Kambal's second ability doesn't care how many tokens are created, I would consider cutting Mondrak, Glory Dominus and Anointed Procession even though they are both amazing cards otherwise. But if you really want to lean into Kambal they don't directly help your game plan.

In general you've got a sizable aristocrats package, but only a few sac outlets. If you want to go aristocrats I think you want to lean further into it. So either add some more sac outlets or dial it way back and focus on the other aspects of how Kambal works. Mind you a card like Suture Priest is probably good whatever route you go there.

You've got a couple of slower and not consistent token creators like Halo Fountain and Battle Angels of Tyr that I think could be cut.

I also think your protection package is too large. I think you'd be better off with maybe 3-4 protection pieces maximum, and ideally ones that synergize with the rest of your game plan like Grand Crescendo and Fanatical Devotion. I'd remove all the enchantment options you have there.

I'd also dial your board wipes down, though that could be meta-dependent, but 5 seems like 3-4 too many for your deck.

There are a handful of cards that probably aren't advancing your game plan too.

  • Bloodchief Ascension is a crazy powerful card, but you don't directly leverage it. That card also points a massive target on whomever plays it, so I don't run it unless the deck fully leverages it.
  • Cathars' Crusade is very powerful but slower and makes managing the board state a nightmare. I've actually taken it out of most of my decks just because I hate having to deal with all the different counters.
  • Tainted Remedy is an okay card in the right deck, but I'm not seeing what it's doing for you here unless your meta is filled with lifegain decks.

Good luck with your build!

I see a few Cathars' Crusade + Basri's Lieutenant + sac outlet and any other nontokeln creature with +1 counters Inf tokens and more

Phyrexian Altar + Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + 1 drop knight 2 life per etb ltb trigger some effects can reduce life loss/kill opponents

Note to brewer

I think Ashnod's Altar might be not worth it here. You might be better with another free sac outlet like Viscera Seer or more reanimation like Victimize

Happy brewing!

The deck looks good!

If you’re open to suggestions, some fun cards you might enjoy are Divine Visitation, Ghalta and Mavren, Cathars' Crusade, Nadier, Agent of the Duskenel, and Nadier's Nightblade. I also think a bit more draw with cards like Toski, Bearer of Secrets and Ohran Frostfang would add consistency and a power boost to the deck.

Personally I enjoy running a bit more ramp in my decks, but your curve seems low enough that it’s probably not an issue. If it does become an issue, Cultivate & Kodama's Reach are staples, and Three Visits & Nature's Lore are some slightly more efficient includes.

Out: Cathars' Crusade

In: Bastion Protector

Changing out one top end spell that doesn't help much for something that protects my commanders and buffs them.

Hey there H-E-N-R-Y

I like the direction you took the deck though as I also like your ideas for Cathars' Crusade and other similar cards. Because Bess only cares about BASE power/toughness, it combos rather well. I hope the deck performs well for you!

This looks pretty awesome. I'd recommend Erratic Portal. It helps you blink your own stuff and can also be used to blink your opponents' creatures in some cases. Recruiter of the Guard could also be interesting in a deck like this. Maybe also consider Cathars' Crusade; that way ETB's strengthen your entire force.

Scapegoat will get the job done. Bonus points for refilling your hand if a boardwipe you can't otherwise avoid happens.

Together Forever is an excellent option if you have a counter theme (Felidar Retreat, Anduril, Narsil Reforged, Archangel of Thune, Cathars' Crusade, Nykthos Paragon, Luminous Broodmoth, etc.)

Yeah, right now I'm looking for things to trim out in order to add more lands and mana rocks. I think Goblin Bombardment is better than Impact Tremors as it isn't so much always looking to deal more damage to opponents, but could for example, make blocks harder/less profitable (especially if Cathars' Crusade isn't on field), help protect the major pieces that need to attack. And if The Master isn't on field, squeeze more value out of myriad tokens and Mirkwood Bats. Warleader's Call will probably be a maybe and potential replacement for Warstorm Surge to bring down the mana curve.

I've been aware of Reconnaissance but not super sure if I want to go through the effort of getting a copy for $12 just yet. (Pretty much all the other cards on the list with that kind of price tag are ones I already own from grabbing in drafts and such).
