Looking For Feedback, Cuts & Suggestions For Squall Deck
eigengrau34 46 days{"ops":[{"insert":"I've been working on this deck for a couple weeks now and already have some of the cards. It's a voltron/mill deck with a heavy emphasis on the voltron build. I didn't mean to build it that way that's just kind of how it happened lol. I'm trying to take advantage of Squall's double strike so the goal is to have him deal as much damage as possible while also offering him a lot of protection. It's still a work in progress. Would love to hear anyone's thoughts on it. https://archidekt.com/decks/14165778/whatever_a_squall_deck\n"}]}

eigengrau34 43 days{"ops":[{"insert":"Thank you for recs. I'll especially be looking into adding some more deathtouchers as I think you're right. \n\nFunny thing about Gerrard's Verdict. As I started building this deck, I noticed a a hand hate sub theme, and thought it might be cool to keep taking value away from my opponents while gaining value with Squalls Recursion. I can see how it might be a flawed strategy so I'll for sure consider it. I think removing poison the Waters is a good idea though. I don't remember what my thought process was for adding that.\n"}]}

eigengrau34 43 days{"ops":[{"insert":"Hey, thank you for the feedback! Darksteel Forge was more of a consideration, and it sounds like you're saying I won't get much value out of it since I'm not running a lot of creatures, let alone artifact creatures. I appreciate this feedback so I'll definitely no longer be considering it. The rest of the cards you've mentioned are all really cool, too, so thank you for that!\n"}]}
