Magic the Gathering Theros Event Deck

With this deck, you'll command an organized assault, using military prowess and powerful enchantments to win the day. The key is controlling the momentum of the game.Get an aggressive start by casting a creature on your first or second turn, and use the abilities of creatures like Imposing Sovereign and Lyev Skyknight to tap or detain potential blockers. Avoid trading with your opponent's early blockers; you can draw into Pacifism, Detention Sphere, or Lavinia of the Tenth to get past them later on. Lyev Skyknight is best saved for when its detain ability can clear the way for your attackers, but don't hesitate to play it on an empty board if it's your only creature. Once your opponent's defenses come online, your creatures may need help getting through. Ordeal of Thassa and Ordeal of Heliod help your attackers get bigger and keep pace with your opponent's creatures. Dauntless Onslaught lets you attack with confidence knowing that you can boost the size of your creatures to keep them safe from damage. If you run into an impervious ground defense, putting an Aura on a flying creature is a great way to finish the game.Focus on getting the most out of your Auras. An unanswered enchanted creature can singlehandedly steal the game. One key card in this deck is Hopeful Eidolon. The extra life you gain from the lifelink ability allows you to trade blows with your opponent without falling behind. You'll almost always cast Hopeful Eidolon as an Aura for its bestow cost. The exception is when you can cast it as a creature on turn one and enchant it with Ordeal of Heliod or Ordeal of Thassa on turn two!The absolute best recipient in this deck for any Aura is Ascended Lawmage, which already has 3 power, flying, and hexproof. If it Playing the Deck has other bonuses on top of that, your opponent will be forced into a damage race that you're likely to win. The other great Aura targets in the deck are Battlewise Hoplite and Fabled Hero.
