Testing Temur with Frontier Siege

I had misread Frontier Siege as "adds 2 green mana to your mana pool each turn". Yesterday, I found it adds 2 Green every main phases, that's 4 mana in two main phases a turn, that's crazily good. And its "Dragon" option is good for turning flying creatures into removals.

I started to build around it. The first thing I considered is putting it into a ramp deck. We can have Genesis HydraPolukranos, World EaterUgin, the Spirit Dragon in the deck. To get the best outcome, we may add more ramp cards like Voyaging SatyrSylvan CaryatidElvish MysticNykthos, Shrine to Nyx. In the end, we will get a deck close to the Green Devotion in Grand Prix Seville 2015 top 8.

On top of that, I think giving 2 Green mana every main phase is good for Morph , Manifest and some activated abilities because these activation don't require you to pay all the mana cost at once. Maybe, it can synergize with Temur War Shaman and Whisperwood Elemental.

Apart from ramping, the "Dragons" option is worth testing, too. It turns Flamewake Phoenix into 2 damage whenever I can cast or put it back to the battlefield. It makes Hornet Queen a sweeper of some sort. I 'd also like to try out these cards: Dromoka, the Eternal , Thousand WindsSoul of RavnicaAegis Angel

I made a deck:




Update: I don't want to build Temur with Frontier Siege now, just leave it to Ugin decks. I am now testing Temur with Collected Company. Please go to this page for the list.

GWx Starfield of Nyx Deck

People say Magic Origins is a down-graded set. To me, It feels more like Ice Age then Khans in the variety of card functions and types. Of course, Ice Age was a fun deck, weakness never harms the entertaining level of cards. Starfield of Nyx  is an interesting one. It goes perfectly into enchantment decks evolved during late Theros Standard. Win conditions: 1. Bring Chromanticore into play from grave. 2. Attack with animated enchatments for winning. 3.
