Bant Prophet Flash


(Sorry, another magic post)

Saw Reid Duke's list and I'm instantly hooked. Prime Speaker Bant isnt new but Reid is playing with comparably lesser amount of creature than standard PS Bant. For reference, most list only plays Sphinx and Primeval as noncreatures. After further finetuning, I ended up with this






I feel like the biggest change here is that I play Supreme Verdict. Obviously I'm not that bad to play it alongside multiple dorks. I've never been a fan of mana dorks anyway; they can get flooded (if I have nothing to cast those manas for, they are useless) and more importantly, make me more vulnerable to sweeper. It also doesnt feel right to play them in a 'control' deck. 4 Sylvan Caryatid is a mainstay for obvious reasons (see Matt Costa's Jund, another recent hype) .Sometimes even few cards selection can change the direction of a deck and whether it will succed or fail. Compare Matt's list to this... 

This is probably the deck I enjoy playing the most ever and has surprisingly been quite consistent. Basically when Prophet resolves it is pretty hard to lose
