I've seen a number of different Marath TL decks at this point, running the gamut from Zoo to Astral Slide, and my general reaction to all of them has been, "Geez, Marath seems like a beating of a general, but this deck seems kind of questionable." I think that's still pretty applicable here. Listing the problems I see, in no particular order:

• Astral Slide is generally a board control deck, but you're light on board control. Where's your EE, Council's Judgement, and extra sweepers?
• Astral Slide - and really, Naya in general - has a hard time fighting unfair decks. You really, really need hatebears.
• This deck seems kind of slow and very durdley. What's you're plan versus streamlined midrange decks like Anafenza that can remove Slide and punish you for sitting on your hands for too long?

I feel like this deck is really dependent on finding and sticking key singleton cards, but Naya colors are not particularly conducive to that since they have some of the weakest draw and tutoring options in the format. I'd imagine a discard-heavy Alesha deck would positively maul you unless you got exactly Solitary Confinement, for example, and even then that card isn't hard to answer. Anafenza has maindeck Abrupt Decay and Council's Judgement to answer your enchantments, plus discard to strip out problem cards. You'll probably not be able to stabilize against decks like these unless they stumble or you run really hot.

This deck has a lot of overlap with Loam decks, both cardwise and from a strategic standpoint. Maybe some 'tech'/cards can be used in this deck as well. Some suggestions:


Mox Diamond
Chalice of the Void
Seismic Assault
Devastating Dreams
Knight of the Reliquary
Terravore
Countryside Crusher
