Hero of bladehold? Or silver palaid
Too many entreats imo,
good point i just figured if i miracle it... if i miracle it.. lol
Too many swamps too. Drop 2-3 in exchange for plains
Elspeth?
If your running champ of parish I think you should drop a couple of either lingering or midnight haunting for {captains call} but it depends on If u wanna give up the flashback spirits or the instant spirits, both are good so maybe drop 1 of each for to captains call
Edit: derp captains call isn't human soldiers it's just soldiers -_-"
Mabe, just mabe, {blood artist} for lols

Blood artist and mutilate to win the game
Take out 1 swamp for a plainaLs
how should i go about the blood artist/mutliate?
- 4 entreat? + 4 blood artist?
-4 entreat +4 artist seems...I dunno, just weird to me. They do totally different things and are not interchangable. You have to ask yourself, "What do I want from this deck?" Do you want death? Go with blood artist. But you have so many tokens. Do you want to generate so many tokens just to kill them? It seems as if this deck is on the fence between tokens and control. Though blood artist + tokens may turn out to be fantastic. Just my speculations...may be wrong may be right!
Also it seems you need a little more removal in the deck. If you put in blood artist, you might not want some of your white cards so you can add mote removal. And do not run mutilate. Only run that when an extremely large portion of your lands are swamps. RTR will help this problem. Instead blood artist combos nicely with {Killing Wave}.
But one concern I have is that if you run artist, why not benefit from your own stuff dying and just make it a BR or BG zombie/death deck? It seems that you are leaning mote towards tokens. So try to build around that maybe. And as you playtest you might not want so many playsets. When you fine-tune a deck, you will discover that you want some cards to show up more than others; hence not as many playsets.
Also just a note: {Bone Splinters} isn't a great card, even if you run tokens. One main idea of tokens is gaining card advantage by 2-for-1ing your opponent (making them doom blade 2 tokens you got from lingering souls, for instance). Bone splinters gets rid of (in a token deck) usually 1 and 1/2 cards (because most token cards give you 2 tokens). And your opponent only loses 1 card (the creature you kill). Furthermore, they can get rid of your other token with 1 card and not lose advantage, because there is only 1 token left to the card that produced it.
Not saying it isn't playable, but I would actually look into {Human Frailty} for your sideboard. There's a LOT of humans running around these days, trying to do as much as possible before they rotate. This card might be useful in a tourney.
although it is bad, bone splinters could potentially be useful with say either 2 skirsdag demon making dudes.. and with the blood artists in, that would double their usefulness...
honestly this isn't my initial build, i've kinda lined it up with a couple pro tour b/w decks i researched...
but honestly i wouldnt mind taking out the champions all together and the white enchantment from 12
and maybe even dropping the midnight hauntings or whatnot.. really i see the tokens as a means to an end, and if i'm not going to swarm i need a better win condition, however this is getting hard to accomplish without my iso device, ill be able to work on it more tomorrow when i get my phone fixed
Last bump before the tourny
Are you playing for a mox saphire?
It's more like Bw control now

Yeah I figured that would be more versatile
And yes we are playing for a mox sapphire
I think you should run the {mutilate} and/or {killing wave} in place of some of your {day of judgement} and {small pox}.
Also, {intangible virtue} is a card... Just sayin'.

Thanks, yes killing wave is a must, I don't know how I feel about mutilate just because of the lack of swamps. Maybe black suns?
Yeah intangible was in there maybe I should find a way to throw it back in

Well my thought is that 2-3 swamps is enough. You pop all your own tokens and {blood artist} takes care of the rest. I'd lose the {small pox} though. Double black would be better used on {mutilate}. Then you can rock the {intangible virtue} instead of some of the DOJ? Good luck tonight.
Also you can sideboard any of the above to see if you think they'd play in game 2's. You have tons of removal so {murder}, {tragic slip} are semi redundant, those are valuable sideboard slots.
Thanks for the input! I edited a bit!
I do like it though. Take notes of your matches and give us the play by play when you get back! Good luck dude!
