Last week Jim Davis posted a video with a crazy UW deck based around Birds and Walls... Literally! Standard-legal, but centering around Wingmantle Chaplain (a Wall that makes Birds), and various [mostly] Birds and Walls that all fit together in a usefully synergistic way.

In today's video Mike battles with Birds and Walls to answer the question...

"Can You Make It to the Pro Tour Playing a Bird / Wall Theme Deck"?

Only one way to find out, right?
