Charlie the thing is the sniper earth build is just so much better as a wizard. Yes it can work with  the warlord it is not even close to optimal.

That I can't argue with because I never really tried it with Wizard. Sounds logical though.

I'm 11-1 with my current version of Warlord against good players. But ya, everyone else I know thought that Warlord is either an outpost or a creature fest. Wrong.

I don't like giving up my tricks, but since there is so much hatred for the guy I'll make an exception. There may be other ways to play him, but this is how it works for me.

Sniper, round 1, in the corner. That is the base of the deck and it works. Some of the problems you will encounter:

1) A Turtle
A: Get extra mana of your own

2) Creature Fest
A: Sniper is out round 1. Him and Warlord can hit with up to 16 dice each round

3) Flying creatures
A: Shoot them down and heal if needed

4) Arcane spells are so expensive
A: 2 or 3 dispels is all you need
