Here are a few defender cards I thought of later on, in case you are interested. I would be interested to see you put the deck together. If you put it together on this website you can test it out!

List:
Overgrown Battlement
Axebane Guardian
Vent Sentinel
Blight Pile
Also, just some cards to help you from removal because that will be how your opponent's will try to get past your defenses.
Make a Stand
Blinding Fog
Dovin's Veto
Render Silent
Best removal for Defender cards
Slaughter the Strong

Interesting. I was just building a Pauper deck with some similar cards. I don’t have any suggestions, but I’ll be keeping an eye on this thread to see how things turn out.

Also, Vent Sentinel

Just gonna throw in my support for defender/walls as a somewhat popular casual strategy across multiple formats. Overgrown Battlement , Assault Formation , High Alert , Vent Sentinel , Phenax, God of Deception , Doran, the Siege Tower , Arcades, the Strategist , Towering Titan , Perimeter Captain , Rolling Stones , Tree of Redemption , and Tree of Perdition are all cards I've tried to build around at some point or another in casual, modern, standard, or commander.

Vent Sentinel could be your win condition. Its not good, but at least it is a win condition.

Hi! Sultai_Sir here. I, too love experimenting with "off-color" brews, like Naya storm. Some toughness-matters cards I can think of are Wall of Nets, Vent Sentinel, and Psychic Membrane. I don't know what budget you're on, but High Alert seems like the all-star of your deck, and you should probably run some tutors like Idyllic Tutor of Enlightened Tutor to get it. I hope this helps, and as always, happy brewing!

enpc on New hub: toughness matters?

4 years ago

I mean, high toughness by itself is not typically a win condition. If you're using cards like Doran, the Siege Tower or Assault Formation to then turn them into beats then that hub should be named after those cards. If you're using defender matters cards (generally walls) with stuff like Vent Sentinel then the hub should be "Defender". But high toughness without one of those outlets is just "Pillow fort", which we alrady have.

If you did want to have a hub for Doran and Formation though, I would personally go with "Sir Mix-a-lot", but that's just me.

Vent Sentinel is a great inclusion here NighNoNot, I'll be sure to add it. Joe_Ken_ while Assemble the Legion and Sun Titan are great cards I was struggling to find things to take out as a replacement. Got any suggestions?
