Hi,
I`m in a tourney to win the Arena Duress next week, and I need a deck. The format is Extended Creature Feature Highlander, which works out as:
1. Minimum 16 cards from a single summon type, or able to produce a summon type (so you can have Sacred Mesa as a Pegasus).
2. All other cards (except basic land) are Highlander.
3. Damage must be at least 50% from creatures (but not necessarily combat damage).
4. No color hosers, including Protection.
5. No summontype hosers or boosters (ie, no Tivadar`s Crusade or Coat Of Arms)
6. Legal sets are Revised/Fallen Empires onwards, the usual Banned list applies.
Goblins are obviously superfast, so I need whatever deck I build to be able to beat goblinburn.dec
Currently I am with Spikes...
4 Spike Drone
1 Llanowar Elf
1 Fyndhorn Elf
1 Elves Of Deep Shadow
1 Birds Of Paradise
1 Wall Of Roots
1 Wall Of Blossoms

4 Spike Feeder
4 Spike Weaver
2 Spike Soldier
1 Verdant Force

What other creature types would work?
