ok first off where is yosei? he flies, he's 5/5 and he locksdown when he dies. what more could you want? i dont think that Azusa has any point to the deck. just take her out and add kodama's reach. Twilight Guardian isnt really that good imo. 8.5 tails should go in here for more control. also Candle's glow is plain bad. i'd run Split-Tail Miko instead. if you want the gain life effect run either Pulse or Beacon of Immortality. iwamori is ok but watch what you play against. if its b/g you better side those out cause of kokusho. like you said your only problem is card gaining.
i play DOTA but only 3.7 cause anything else is a cheesy rip-off or just plain dumb. Frozen Throne DOTA is too one-sided. ROC DOTA is evenly balanced. if you want to play whisper me my names Summoner_EX3 and i play on Azeroth.
I believe Hinder is plain terrible. just an overcosted Memory Lapse. I dont want them having the chance to redraw it. also Condescend is great. even if they pay it, you still get to scry. scrying is good for u/g. Also saying witness can get it back is pointless. even if the spell was let through they can still get it.
yeah Ninphidian is just too good to pass up in this deck. heres my build now.

what do you guys think of it? it looks similar but i think that Condescend is better then Hinder. yes they can pay it but when you look at most of the decks out there, affinity is the only one that really doesnt shuffle their deck often. Tooth, UG, BG they all shuffle so hinder doesnt really stop them from getting the spell back.
I bought a box (yay for me:)) and i couldnt believe it. i got 3 red shoals including a foil one. i got higure, 3 other shoals, and other goodies. i realize that Enshrined Memories is an awesome card. this is looking to be a great set. definitly puts the tempo to an aggro sort of way.
so what do you guys think is the most disturbing magic card picture. i recently looked at Sickening Shoal and its quite disturbing seeing flying fish with puke coming out their mouths flying around a guy spreading it all over.
10. Crack the Earth. OOh its so good.
9. Blazing Shoal. its a good pump on any unblocked creature.
8. Toshiro Umezawa. who doesnt like a card that can reanimate spells from your graveyard?
7. Kira, Great Glass Spinner. yeah double target that please. thank you.
6. Sowing Salt. UP YOURS TOOTH!!!!!! YEAH THATS RIGHT!
5. Eradicate. No darksteel collosus for you!
4. Horobi's Whisper. 3 mana destroy a non-black creature. good!
3. Ninphidian. i attack with witness. Wa-Ta! ninjitsu in Ninphidian and draw a card...then play witness
2. Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni. Wa-Ta! ninjitsu in Ink-Eyes and take your uhh hmm.....how bout that nice big creature. other guy: well uhh...i'll kill it with double shock. Regenerate.
1. Neko-Te. this plus ronin cliffrider equals lockdown for your opponent.
i dont know about you hkkid but people around here who play hovergaurd in affinity are usually playing plating affinity. i never have a chance to get it cause the football helmet (thats what we call cranial plating here) is already on it or if i try its insta equipped. thats why i cut shackles out.
im waiting to see if i should cut the lands. tooth is still popular here but they are all saying they are scared with bok. i gotta update my deck and see some new possible addons to this deck.
im close to my set of 4 oxidizes. i got my one in the mail and luckily a local guy hates playing green and traded it to me for only 5 dollars! thats a deal. these things will already be 15-20$ in our area since they are really sought after.
well i was surprised by the oxidize being textless. and since its going to be a color wheel we still need white and blue here are my choices.
Blue - Mana Leak
White - hmm...maybe something from CHK or BOK. its hard to choose. better be something good. if they dont choose something in Standard then maybe Disenchant.
well not if you go first. then its game on. but i would laugh if they are playing the blue shoal and your hyped up so you play raging goblin then they shoal you. lol
