DrakEmono 13 months{"ops":[{"insert":"Hiya! I made a new deck I plan to build, based on wolves and werewolves. However, I have a little problem: I have way too many cards, and I don't know which ones to remove from my deck. Can someone help me deciding please?\nNote that I just placed basic lands without thinking much, I will balance them depending on the final global mana costs.\nI also had to remove some very good cards which, sadly, were too expensive for me, but if ever you have an idea of a very good addition to my deck which isn't expensive, I can consider it too.\nThanks!\n"},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/decks/3796396"},"insert":"Deck"},{"insert":"\n\nEDIT: Thank you for your helps. I got additional help from outside to finalize my deck, and it's all good now. I keep the topic open in case you would actually suggest me a stronger card to replace one of mines with. (Note that I would avoid to have to invest for expensive cards, at least for now, so obviously, I don't take perfect bi-lands :p)\n"}]}

"},{"insert":{"card-link":"Afflicted Deserter // Werewolf Ransacker"}},{"insert":" is a prime example. You pay 4 mana for a 3/2 with no other impact on the board state by itself.

Wesmonster 13 months{"ops":[{"insert":"I see some cards that don't really advance your game plan. There are a couple of cards that deal direct damage, but other than that, they aren't very good value for the mana cost and it doesn't seem like direct damage is a big part of your deck.\n"}]}

DrakEmono 13 months{"ops":[{"insert":"I wanted to add some direct damage to manage a bit the board in case there are annoying creatures on the board that I wouldn't be able to destroy. I know that I have the ability to generate lot of tokens with it to defend myself, but creatures with effect, or even flying creatures might be a problem for me. Don't you think I should have some? Unless there are some cards you think are too costy to be worth? If so, I'm not sure which ones...\n"}]}

DrakEmono 13 months{"ops":[{"insert":"Alright, thanks! I will consider the cards you suggest!\nAbout the werewolves, I just would like to be sure... If I have 3 werewolves (including the commander), it becomes night, so they will almost always be useful, right? I know I have to remove some of them, but I usually just look at the transformed version since that's what they will be most of the time, no matter what the opponent will do.\nPS: The lands look so good, they will be worth too for my future commander 5 colors... (yeah, I like defies)\n"}]}
