Why not
-4 Knight of Meadowgrain, -1 plains and +2 Mirrorweave , +3 Ranger of Eos
or
-4 Knight of Meadowgrain and +2 Mirrorweave , +2 Ranger of Eos
?
In my daily tests Range fits very well in this deck... and Knight in a midgame draw is bad. Mirroweave always save me for strange situations... so why not?
Okay, so I've been searching everywhere and no one can give me a decisive answer as to Mirrorweave's affects on Figure of Destiny: I have a FoD that I have made to be a 4/4, which I target with Mirrorweave. Are all of my other creatures 4/4's or 1/1's?
Imo, they should all be 4/4's because when I use FoD's ability he "becomes" a 4/4 and I target him, as a 4/4. Magicb quoted this to say that they are all 1/1's, but the lingo is so excessively complex that it is hard to derive a definitive answer to my particular question from it:
and in the Official MTG Shadowmoor FAQ, this was said:
The way it is written it does seem like they remain 1/1's, but that just doesn't make since to me. If it turns out that that is the ruling, can rulings be repealed? I'm not normally one to press issues like this, but it just doesn't make sense to me.
Thoughts? Opinions?
Some days ago i read in other site (can i put the name here?) and in gleemax forum the same question... and the judge says: "All creatures are 4/4 now..." but i dont have the links now...
Congrats! I like your build. I guess the 2 Weaves are working well without the Lieges? I guess we don't really need them though. All we need is a bunch of creatures and for them to have one good one! I am also going to run Unmakes over Crib Swap next week because I am dropping Mutavault completely (in case I haven't driven that point home yet:p) and we do need the creature advantage. After the tourney last night, I was talking to someone about how much I wish I could fit Ajani in here. He's the nuts with Spectral, and well, everything else! Also glad to see the lack of Mutavaults.
How did Beckon Apparition work for you and when would you side it in (I mean other than against 'Lark or other gy manip)? Do you side in Cavalier's against Demigod?
Weave is for target Ashemoor in RDW, Chameleon Colossus in BG Elfs, Reveillark or anything big. So i dont wanna remove them yet. Unmake is far best except for Oversoul and Chameleon (but we have so many chump blockers). Ajani is too good... most time it pumps my creatures but sometimes it pumps my life (RDW hate this :D). Mutavault is too much expensive and i cant use it with procesison and unmake. Beckon Aparition si for Manequim and Llark (dont forget the 1/1 fly spirit bonus). I dont side Cavalier to demigod... i use unmake!
With unmake, cloudgoat and mirrorweave RDW is far the easiest match now for me!
Match 1:
RDW(With Demigod, Blood Knight and 8 Magus): 2-0. Tkx to 4 Burrenton MD and 2 in hand on 2nd game!
Match 2:
Mirror(With many changes - a poor version of this deck): 2-0. He mulligan to 5 in both games!
Match 3:
RDW(Another Demigod-8magus boring deck): 2-0. Again Burrenton shines here and im with 3 cloudgoat in game and he with no one Sulfurous Blast in hand he droped at the end of the 2nd game.
Match 4:
Mana Ramp(3 colors with Oversoul, Ascetic Troll and Chameleon): 1-2. 1st game is too fast for him. 2nd and 3rd games i drew only lands and umakes... so i lost this one.
Match 5:
BG Elfs(With Chameleon, Mutavault and all other expesives stuffs): 2-1. 1st game i got mana mana flood and no one token maker... so he won. 2nd and 3rd games i smashed him with huge amounts of tokens and mirrorweave on a 4/4 FoD!
This FNM have so many top decks(Mana Ramp, Faeries, BR tokens, Mono Red, BG Elfs, Reveillark, Mono U Merfolk and GU Merfolk) and some top players.
I really think this deck as potential for win any national and i'll stay testing here.
R/B opponent wants to get rid of Mirror Entity and Soul Warden. Even if he does, you can still bring them back with Reveillark and/or kill with Furystoke/Titan's Revenge.
U/B opponent wants to counter Reveillark, Furystoke Giant and Titan's Revenge. Even if he does, you still have Soul Warden to gain a lot of lives and Mirror Entity to turn your army of tokens into 7/7 super goats.
Note: If you choose Nobilis of War over Furystoke Giant/Reveillark, then Mirrorweave becomes a good option (replacing Mercy Killing).
Turn 5 tokens into 3/4 fliers that give each other +10/+0 when attacking. That's game. If you have 6 mana available, you can mirrorweave Nobilis of War and then Blink Shepherd for 25-30 goat tokens. With Soul Warden in play, that's hilarious.
With only 22 lands why not try:
Spectral Procession instead of Rise of the Hobgoblins;
and
Mirroweave instead of Mercy Killing;
Nobilis of War instead of Reveillark;
Umake instead of Prison Term ?
I beat Red Deck Wins Splash Tarmogoyf round 1. He Net-decked without testing though so he was a noob.
Second round was vs. Teferi control. I won by suspending the Benalish commanders and running him over with some tokens.
Third round I beat the snot out of some U/G deck. He got mana screwed both games. I felt bad.
Final round I lost 2-1 to touch Blink.
It was a great deck to Pilot. Just not good enough.
I'm testing this build every day in the last two weeks and it's very powerfull vs. any king of aggro deck and some other builds of decks tier1 and tier2 :D. But vs. Angelfire like dekcs its so weak thaks for flying critters :-/.

If your meta have a lot of graveyard base decks i think put Tormod's Crypt in place of Jotun Grunt and if your meta have a lot of flying creatures put Devouring Light in place of Judge Unworthy.
Any thoughts?
+ Kheldon Megaliths
In some cases you can use Megaliths for get some soldiers with Darien.
