What's more flavorful than the Ghost Council sending in a bunch of fodder to die, dealing with spirits, bringing the dead back to fight, and forcing angels to wipe out the opponent? The deck uses tokens to abuse for sac effects/chump blocking, and the Angels serve as a win con along with life draining effects. Let me know what you think! |

You might like {He Who Hungers} and {Souls of the Faultless}.
Quote from: Gorzo on May 01, 2013, 08:50:05 PMI think I took her out because I didn't want to have too many high cost cards. However, the token generating {Dread} effect, combined with the art, is too tempting. I'll probably take out {Admonition Angel} or something high cost for her. Thanks for the suggestion!
Any way to fit {Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts} in there? The art is just... so... beautiful!
Oh, and she works really well in your deck, too :P
Quote from: Teysa karlov on May 02, 2013, 07:54:30 AMThis was something I considered, but decided against for a couple reasons. One, when I drop Teysa, her primary function is to serve as removal, which is shut down by darkest hour. Second, it doesn't have much synergy with the rest of the deck. If I draw {Darkest Hour}, and don't have Teysa, its not serving any purpose. There likely will be times where I switch her out for the commander for one reason or another, and I'll definitely include these cards for those situations. Thanks!
As you have {Teysa, Orzhov Scion} in there I advice {Darkest Hour} and {Blasting Station}
I

If only there was a non-banned way to make all your creatures black and white!!!!!
