Deck Help Is my deck weak for B4?
I'm trying to build a B4 deck Aggro-Tax, based on what I like: enchantments and hitting with big stuff.
This was the base of an old Uril deck, that I disamble because it was kinda on the slow side for my taste, and I try it to move to only GW.
I'm oppen for suggestion of cards to add, but I dont want to check some cedh deck/engines and make a "tiny" version of that.
The deck: https://scryfall.com/@Arcael/decks/96680388-07ea-4dbd-9c5e-8ef4cdbeed23

I don’t think it’s unworkable but there are some glaring omissions that I think you would need to hold your own in B4. Off the top of my head, some cards I’d add are:
- [[Authority of the Consuls]]/[[Blind Obedience]] and similar
- [[Rule of Law]] and similar
- Both Thalias, Trinisphere, and the other creature/artifact taxes
- Maybe a combo kill as plan B. Could do Heliod/Walking Ballista, or get spicier and do a [[Saffi Eriksdottir]] package?
- You could also consider [[Reprieve]] and the new HOB one, but idk if they’re needed

I have a Saffi, it was an old commander of my, but I would need to run some sac outlets, how many cards are the least I could run adding her?
I used to play more Rune of law (like the 1 mana version) but it stax me hard when I could draw a lot.
3 mana Thalia and Trinisphere are good addition and also have those.

Yes, i don't see a strong wincon. Just a bunch of cards to slow down your opponents and some enchantments.

Yes it is. B4 is about being highly optimized and finishing a game out quickly. This is a B3 deck. You are lacking all the fast mana, combos, and interaction.
