Trap Runner doesn't actually force a creature to block. The attacking creature just becomes blocked by nothing in particular.

Deftblade Elite, Swooping Talon, and Lowland Tracker are the three white creatures with provoke, which allows them to force blockers.

Yeah I had been debating about that one, and the keeping the mana curve low was the biggest reason I included Krosan Vorine . You make a good point, though. I think that one extra mana might just be worth Lowland Tracker ’s first strike.

I’m a little confused by your next suggestion because none of those cards have a Lure effect. They don’t force blockers; they just do things when they’re blocked. Including lure effects would be a great idea if I can find room for them, though.

Yeah, Shamanic Revelation is really good. It’s similar to Camaraderie which nets me life regardless of my creatures’ power. I think if I had enough creatures with power over 4 to make the second part worth it, it would just be win-more. Still good draw power regardless. It might find its way in if I need another high draw spell.

Thanks for taking a look at the deck and giving some feedback!

After looking at you combat trick section, I would vote for replacing Krosan Vorine with Lowland Tracker . It does cost 1 more mana, but it has first strike. You pair that with Bow of Nylea , Basilisk Collar , or Gorgon Flail (other strong inclusions in a deck with Mirri) and now the Tracker is just straight removal.

Also, some other fun cards with Lure effects are Druid's Call , Saber Ants , and Broodhatch Nantuko .

Shamanic Revelation can be pretty potent card draw in a token deck as well. Yes you need a board state to get anything, but it has pretty high upside.

If you untap Elvish Mystic with provoke from Lowland Tracker it has to block Lowland Tracker if able, not Deftblade Elite. As was stated before Elvish Mystic can indeed be tapped for mana again making him unable to block. I feel it may have been a typo in the OP, but thought I would clarify incase not or so that anyone who later sees this is not confused as to how provoke works.

Say I declare Lowland Tracker as an attacker.

Then I proceed to target my opponent's tapped Elvish Mystic with Provoke.

Can he/she tap the elf for mana once it gets untapped by Provoke, hence leaving it unable to block Deftblade Elite?

The alternative would be that Provoke does the untapping and the blocking simultaneously, leaving no time for my opponent to tap the Elf for mana.

Thanks in advance.
