They sort of reminded me of Eldrazi, but I don't know if that's what you were thinking of.

Well, one has to examine the pieces.Hero of Bladehold Elspeth 2.0 Knight Exemplar Student of Warfare Brave the Elements Nomads' Assembly Conqueror's Pledge Will more pieces become available to make a deck playable? Also, they're not Eldrazi.

Having a curve that starts @ 3 mana for a 2/2 is not a good aggro plan. Nor is it a good midrange plan. Nor does it give you a lategame. I mean, if U/x Control decks AND valakut decks vanish, and boros and vampires suddenly die, I guess you could play mono-white knights....__________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."[16:17] <@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for?

Umm, doesn't Knights start at one drops?One Drop: Student of Warfare Two Drop: White Knight or Student Level or Honor of the Pure Three Drop: Mirran Crusader or Knight Exemplar Four Drop: Hero of Bladehold or Day of Judgement or Ajani Goldmane Five Drop: Eldrazi Monument or Elspeth Tirel or Conqueror's Pledge That's just off top of my head, not saying it will see play or be T1 if it does, but it does look to have potential.

Ya can't wait, so wana try building Type2 GB Elfslaver lock, even if it doesn't work, still going to try. Seems like it might be good in a agro heavy Meta, take their turn make them attack into Glissa, get back Mindslaver, rinse and repeat so long as they can draw a creature for you to play. __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me.

I would not be surprised if they banned that combo at one point. Hopefully they'll make some good sacrificial artifacts...Imagine T1 with lotus petals, etc.

Glissa's one of the prerelease cards, so it won't be that expensive.
