I am wanting to add Black to this deck. I already know I'm taking out {Sun Titan} for the new Sorin. I want to take out {Spirit Mantle} o just don't know what to put in. Any advice?
Looks good. î...
A flying 8/8 hex proof, uncounterable, first striking troll with regenerate sounds a little bit rediculous. Do you use this much at FNM? How quickly do you typically get thrun scarier?
If you are looking for a good equipment to replace it, maybe a sword? What type of thing are you looking to replace {spirit mantle} with?
I like {avacyns collar} from DA that could replace the mantle
I do not think this deck's synergy will appreciate a black splash for a planeswalker

I've actually had Thrun an 8/8 on turn 4 quite a bit. I just recently mixed the deck with township tokens. I figured it would compliment. And it does. The deck is pretty fast and wins more than loses at FNM. Since it has alot of tokens I figured the new Sorin would fit nicely.

What is your meta?
Meta?
Have you thought about any of the Dark Ascension cards yet? {Increasing Devotion} or {Requiem Angel} could help that {Beast Within} you've got in there.

I do not think requiem angel is that good. It is a flying angel that beats and makes 1/1 when your creatures die. I dont think it is any better than the cards already in this deck. I would not take anything out for it.
Increasing devotion is just silly. It costs 5 for a 5/5 and 9 for a 10/10 and they are all just little creatures in the meanwhile, so your opponents can simply slagstorm. This deck is good enough as it is. I would not make any special changes (especially with dark ascension stuff)

tl;dr: Just run {Sun Titan}.
{sun Titan} is a bad fit in this deck....what are you gonna return a birds of paradise or a pilgrim....that's it.
{Increasing Devotion} + {Honor the Pure}/{Intangeble Virtue}= 10/10 for 5

I always forget he returns permanents....was thinking just creatures. And I am building a {sun Titan} deck!!!!
Yeah, {Sun Titan} returning {Spirit Mantle}. Yikes!
There's something i think we're all lookign over here, and that's mirran crusader. Any sort of white agro, with angelic destiny, should explore mirran crusader. I also agree with guru that black makes for bad snyergy. Sorin isn't worth it, trust me. Just win with a mirran crusader, a thrun, and a destiny. Sun Titan means a lot more when you have dead mirran crusaders. Not only do you get a 6/6 vigill, you get a twin-pro color doublestrike blocker
