Good day chaps

I am trying to build a new EDH deck and am trying to come up with something even close to original, started looking at creature types that have enough options and isn't to popular so I have come to the conclusion that CLERICS is clearly the choice.

So firstly any reasonable ideas on splits, land creatures, spells etc

Also I have a list of all the clerics ever printed and am wittling it down slowly but the spells and lands I am having some trouble with.

Any suggestions would be welcome and anyone with some of the older commons that I could nab would be a massive help

cheers

It's original in the sense that no one at the games club except Nathan has done it!  Think he's got them all in foil too...

Anyway, with a view to being even remotely helpful I guess you'll be looking at a B/W general.  Here are your choices:

All are viable with Selenia getting extra points for being terrible!  Here's another link to a useful post on salvation where you can find some other examples of BW lists:

Pretty sure I'd go with Ghost Council as a Cleric deck general.

although surely Angus Mckenzie surely would be the best named general

Ghost Council is a spirit though not a cleric

 

also if Nathan has already done them I will pick a different creature type then, any suggestions?
Been done to death though hasn't it?  Don't think Glenn is going for ultra competitive EDH here!

Just pick a general you like with some decent ability(s) and build around it using cards you like. Much more fun than most of the generic "good stuff" EDH decks I've seen.

 

Like, I doubt anyone else is playing concussive bolt in their constructed decks, but it's sick in mine.

A Lovisa Coldeyes deck with only creatures she pumps?


A Skeleton Ship proliferate-themed deck, highlighting the most random Legend in the history of Magic?

 

A Seshiro Snake tribal deck?

 

Braids, Conjurer Adept with a ton of ways to steal things once they get put into play for free?

maybe a soldier theme deck might work a bit

How about General Jarkeld?

He's terrible, but is a soldier!

he is indeed terrible but would restrict the colours to much, he might enter into the deck though for his crazy abuse levels

I'm not playing against you if you're going to change my blockers.

 

Or play counterspells/LD

Pretty sure I've got about 6 of him from back in the days of cracking ice age packs - 6 general jarkelds, no jester's caps :(
