Look at this, for comparison.
// Deck file for Magic Workstation (http://www.magicworkstation.com)
// Lands
18 [10E] Plains (4)
4 [LRW] Windbrisk Heights
2 [MOR] Rustic Clachan
// Creatures
4 [EVE] Figure of Destiny
4 [ALA] Akrasan Squire
4 [ALA] Sigiled Paladin
4 [LRW] Knight of Meadowgrain
3 [10E] Paladin en-Vec
4 [ALA] Battlegrace Angel
// Planeswalkers
2 [LRW] Ajani Goldmane
2 [ALA] Elspeth, Knight-Errant
// Enchantments
1 [EVE] Light from Within
// Spells
4 [SHM] Spectral Procession
4 [EVE] Unmake
// Sideboard
SB: 1 [10E] Paladin en-Vec
SB: 3 [EVE] Stillmoon Cavalier
SB: 4 [ALA] Relic of Progenitus
SB: 4 [LRW] Burrenton Forge-Tender
SB: 3 [ALA] Oblivion Ring
I like how I consistently attack with a 2/2 turn 2. Attacking with a 3/3 turn 2 also happens a lot more often than with Kithkin. 4/4 or even 5/5 attacker turn 3 also happens quite often.
I may also want Reveillark in side, though. Need to look at that. I can remember at least one game vs 5cc that I desired one badly (before I made a sideboard). |

| Kithkin can attack for 2 on turn 2 easily and sometimes even for 3. Turn 3 however kithkin won't probably attack with anything bigger than a 4/4 but it will probably attack for more because kithkin bonuses aren't limited to 1 attacker. Oh and there's always the powerplay or mirrorweave on Cenn that ww can't do. This makes Spectral Procession and Cloudgoat Ranger better in kithkin than in ww. Oh and when you drop that battlegrace angel mirrorweave it ftw (yes no exalted but turning all your guys into 4/4 fliers seems pretty good). |

I have found that Exalted works fine until I can deal more damage if I attack with more than one creature. It is not difficult to figure out. Also, Ajani supports multiple creature-attack, while Elspeth supports single attackers, so which one of them I have going is significant in this respect.
Also consider the amount of first strike I have. It is actually quite likely that while I can attack (almost always with a 3/3 or bigger), at least one 2/2 first striker is sitting back in defense = one-sided attacks ftw. It is true that WW misses out on the crazy one-attack-ftw Mirrorweave tech, but the upside is less dependency on Wizened Cenn (aka Mrs.Bullseye) and better creatures overall. |

| Yes exalted works fine specially against aggro. But I still think Kithkins is more powerfull because mirrorweave is very powerful not only on cenn but also on anything big your opp is playing. |

heres what i have at the moment,
Creatures
4 Figure of Destiny 1cc
4 Akrasan Squire 1cc
4 Knight of Meadowgrain 2cc
4 Knight of the White Orchid 2cc
3 Paladin en-Vec 3cc
4 Battlegrace Angel 5cc
Spells
4 Spectral Procession 3cc
2 Unmake 3cc
2 Oblivion Ring 3cc
1 Light from Within 4cc
Planeswalkers
2 Elspeth, Knight Errant 4cc
2 Ajani Goldmane 4cc
Lands
19 Plains
1 Rustic Clachan
4 Windbrisk Heights
SB
4 Burrenton Forge-Tender
4 Relic of Progenitus
3 Stillmoon Cavalier
2 Reveillark
2 Wrath of God
Curve
1cc --------
2cc --------
3cc -----------
4cc -----
5cc ----
Figure of Destiny and Akrasan Squire usually lets me attack with a 3/3 on the 2nd turn and a 5/5 on the third turn.
Knight of the White Orchid allows me win on the draw by giving me a extra land on turn 3.
Battlegrace Angel's lifelink save you in tight situation.
Any other suggestions? SB suggestions? Should I add Oversoul because it seems good with Light from Within. |
