In this video, I show off a ZERO rare blue and white Soldiers deck built around Coppercoat Vanguard and Yotian Tactitian. This is a great option if you're new to Arena or want to try something fun using ZERO rare wildcards.

Just got to platinum playing a 12 rares upgrade for this deck! It’s quite solid against a lot of decks in the meta at the moment!

What rares did you add and which cards did you drop? Really interested in this deck

@@Ulti400MThe biggest change was to the mana base, the creatures for the most part are already solid. I did swap out all 4 Coppercoat Vanguard for Valiant Veteran, it’s overall the better lord since it buffs soldiers instead of humans, hitting the several nonhuman soldiers in the deck, adding a extra point of toughness, and having a relevant ability from the graveyard.
For the other 8 I swapped out the 4 dual lands and 4 courtyards for Adarkar Wastes and Fortified Beachheads. This is a very important if not very glamorous change, having a untap land turn 1 is huge for the deck to curve out and get aggro wins. Courtyard is also noticeably clunky in the original list due to how many spells it has that courtyard can’t really help you cast.
Overall it’s been super solid with just the 12 rares and can do some absolute work on ladder if piloted right!
