Any tips for a 5 color deck? I can't seem to make it work, I always lack the proper lands. I'm using mainly the lieges and spirit avatars from Eventide/Shadowmoor. Also, wtb spirit avatar cards PST.
So, I didn't know what the spirit avatars were and had to look them up. After doing so, I would say a 5 color deck using them will be very hard to get to work. I don't really know all the other cards from these sets, but you're looking at requiring at least 3 of a single land type before playing them from a 5 color deck, and those aren't good odds. Most 5 colors decks I've seen rely on spells with low specific mana costs, one or two of a certain type.
However, if you're determined to use them go for it. Part of the fun is trying to win with less than optimal decks. I have a 5 color dragon deck I used to dick around with. I ended up with a bunch of old legendary dragons and wanted to use them all, so I just threw something together. One thing I highly recommend you picking up is
exhume. Remember that you can just do nothing on the first turn and discard a big creature with the intention of exhuming him two turns later.
Most of the other things I used are probably either banned by now (Fastbond, Demonic tutor), or are wimpy compared to the power creep of the recent cards.
