dunno if this is as good as it was when i played it in type two, lemme know.

4x secluded steppe
4x tranquil thicket
3x temple of the false god
6x forest
7x plains
4x eternal witness
4x krosan tusker
4x break assunder
3x akroma's blessing
2x gilded light
4x renewed faith
4x decree of justice
4x wrath of god
3x akroma's vengeance
4x astral slide

sideboard:
3x viridian shaman
2x gilded light
2x plow under
3x spreading algae
3x circle of protection: red
2x words of worship

anyway i know there is a lot of flexibility to improve this deck in legacy, and i'd appreciate the input. i've been thinking that yosei can see abuse here for sure.
when i played it in the past, the two decks that showed me trouble were u/w control, and infi-slaver, which was a tooth variant. the fortunate side of the latter is the deck contains no way to suicide short of decking.

i think you should just go with RW slide since, in legacy there are many combos so astral slide mught not be very useful. the creature decks you would play against may most likely be fish decks and i don't think you want to slide ne of thoes creatures out. but that is just my openion take it how you want to hope it helps.

id go GWr slide for 1 hellkite and rift. Also, hiearchs are needed and LIFE FROM THE LOAM is a must so you can get your cycle lands back.

Wow Yavin, did you think of that all by yourself? OMG IMPRESSED!

Of course you didnt. It's easy to steal other peoples Ideas, and GW slide CAN be good in T1.5. Just stick to GW and you'll be better off than GWR.
