"Infinite Reflection is a card that really intrigues me, since with Drogskol Captain it's completely insane. All of your creatures are hexproof and huge? Sign me up! The issue, however, is that if you have enough creatures on the battlefield to make it strong then you probably don't need the Reflection to win. If this deck was playing Lingering Souls—which is certainly a route you could go—I would be far more inclined to keep this card."

 Thankfully, Infinite Reflection doesn't work on tokens, so there's no need to be tempted by it at all.

Nice deck. I was looking to do something casual w/ Blue/White spirits, splashing some green for Decendant's Path, and Moorland Haunt for instant-speed spirit-making. This is a lot less clunky, and I like it.

Just curious how any sane person is expected to read Tallowisp and Threads of Disloyalty and come to the conclusion that the former can't be used to search up the latter.

Actually, you can (or should b able to.  I don't fully know.)  Actually, someone has already done a deck similar to this one.  See it here www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.a...

Zach's Silverblade Ninjas deck is not modern legal. It contains 3 Umezawa's Jitte

I love that All-In Windbrisk deck, but I'm not sure Primal Surge is a good idea given the high risk of putting two or more Emrakul into play at once. Surely there are better options given that any card in the format can get cast that way? Jin-Gitaxias? Iona?

It's not a big risk, as each revealed permanent enters the battlefield one at a time and you decide if you want each of them to enter, one at a time. But I do think the deck could use some Ionas =)

Well, gatherer has it worded slightly differently:

Enchant creature with converted mana cost 2 or less




You control enchanted creature.






So, it says that instead of straight up "enchant creature."  Anyway, if this is correct, then they need to re-errata it again.  Should be something like:

"Enchant creature

[cardname] can only enchant creatures with cmc 2 or less

You control enchanted creature." 

Otherwise, seems like BS.

Ah, good point, I should probably read the card more carefully! :-)

(I've only ever used Surge in decks which insta-win if it resolves, so it's never been relevant.)
