I have recently decided to build Captain Sisay as a Semi-Taxes build. *Because if I were to go all the way, I probably wouldn't be able to play with anyone* Therefore, some of the card choices are made *or not made* to be able to play with people. Some of those choices are, Kataki, War's Wage, Smokestack, Tangle Wire, and Crucible of Worlds.
To keep up some of the aggressiveness I have decided to put in the 3 card combo, Melira, Greater Good, and Woodfall Primus. Which is pretty much the only reason Kozilek is in the deck. As for new additions, I felt that Elesh Norn was a much better card choice for the deck rather than Crovax simply because you hurt them more, and do not hurt your own guys.
I also felt that Vorinclex's "Winter Orb" ability would make a fine addition to the deck. And along with Mirari's Wake and the mana accel *pinnacle for any competitive deck* would allow for these large drops to come out quickly.
Other than that, just punish your opponent for playing things that aren't creatures. And if they do play creatures, you can punish them for that too.
5/20/11- First draft of the list- Testing will begin ASAP
5/26/11- -Kiyomaro, Wild Pair, Fauna Shaman, Green Sun's Zenith
+ Mindslaver, Eladamri's Call, Twilight Shepard, Archon of Justice
Reasons: Kiyo doesn't really do anything, Wild Pair was uneventful for the larger creatures, Fauna shaman just wasn't necessary, and sometimes I want non green creatures when I search for them.
Twilight Shephard is really good, same with Archon, Eladamri's call is just better searching, and Mindslaver is a better legend.
