RGW Guildmage

[Killer Joe]

I need help with this thing.

I want to build a non-tournament version of this deck, so here's what I've so far:

4 Selesnya Guildmage
4 Boros Guildmage
4 Lightning Helix (I said 'non-tournament' not 'lame' )
4 Kird Ape
4 Skyknight Legionnaire
4 Glorious Anthem
4 Boros Recruit
4 Watchwolf
2 Boros Signet
2 Selesnya Signet

I don't own any of those fancy Life-gain Elephants or the new Glare/Opposition GW gold card.

Boros Swiftblade and Moldervine Cloaks. Swiftblade is solid and gets nasty when buffed, and cloak turns all your ewoks into fat-head-baccas.

Ex.

Turn 2 Watchwolf
Turn 3 Enchant Watchwolf with Moldervine Cloak swing for 6

The cloak cannot be emphasized enough as it allows to you create serious threats out of tempo creatures. In addition to creating credible threats it gives you the opportunity of sand bagging your opponent with additional tempo critters and thus not being vulnerable to board clearers. You can also dredge it back for a minimal amount.

What are you thinking about for your mana base? 3 colors, with Watchwolf, Legionnaire, Anthem and Kird Apes can be tough to pull off if you aren't rocking a full fleet of multi-color producers (read: expensive dual/pain lands). Maybe Birds of Paradise, as it gives you the multi-color support and even more tempo advantage.

4 signets seems like too few, but then 6-8 seems like too much to interfere with your tempo curve. Probably a playtest answer.

Anyway, I think R_L is on the right track with Moldervine Cloak. The tempo makes up for the potential card disadvantage.

Char also seems like a solid fit due to its pure aggressive nature.

Also, both Master Warcraft or Rally the Righteous can be used as finishers in here.

Thanks guys. As always I mean to mention that this deck is for multiplayer but your suggestions still help in that way.

Mana base:
Maybe I'll have Sakura-Tribe Elder and Kodama's Reach instead of the Signets. I just saw a deck like this with Jitte's but I don't want this to be a monster just a medium "pile" to make me feel better and I get to think I'm not always playing a deck that'll *crush* my opponents. Besides, I've always liked RGW.

Add:
4 Moldervines
4 Sakura-Tribe Elders
4 Kadoma's Reach

The deck is on "hold" due to my new "Pet Deck" aka Treefolk
