It's the simple way of looking at it, if you cast it anytime during your turn that is before the beginning of your end step you will get counters on your turn. If you have a way to flash it in as a combat trick on their turn you'll get counters at the end of their turn before yours begins.
I built a green white aggro deck using battle cry as an effective way to boost my creatures quickly and efficiently. I'm currently using signal pests, accorder palladins and hero of bladehold as the battlecry. put in four green suns that work extremely well to go get a quick fighter in strangleroot geist. I also use mirran crusader, three memnites, silverblade palladin, and two angelic destiny's as my bomb. It's been working really fast and doing quite well. seven control spells in three o-rings and four beast withins. you can also use beast within to kill your own creature if the other person is already gonna kill it or try to exile it with pillar of flame.
I've been tweaking this deck. Its just fine as G/W but i think the control will allow me to adjust better to new things i meet at tournament so i splashed a few blue control ideas in it. I still think it needs a little work, but its been doing good for me so far and it'll get a road test tomorrow.
I had a thought to build this kind of deck last week and last night I put it together. It did fairly decent on its first outing going 4-1 against some decent but not fantastic decks. Do you have any suggestions? I'm thinking about putting
I had this deck idea and so I decided to test it out. Last night I played a few rounds and lost only one game out of four against some decent but not fantastic decks. Let me know what you think. I was considering putting in, when the new set comes in, mychosynth(forgive the spelling) wellspring for the sylvan rangers.
I don't have much experience building decks, but I know that if I can get on the right track I can get something good to come from this. I would also run steady progress to proliferate and probable throne of geth. Let me know what you think. I appreciate the help.
