{proclamation of rebirth}, {immortal servitude}, {reveillark} or {sun titan}? This is for a boros soul sisters that I have. Here's the list:

Norin The OP 57 cards, 15 sideboard 2 {Ghost Quarter} 4 {Clifftop Retreat} 4 {Sacred Foundry} 4 {Battlefield Forge} 9 {Plains} 23 lands 2 {Hero of Bladehold} 3 {Ranger of Eos} 4 {Soul's Attendant} 4 {Soul Warden} 2 {Purphoros, God of the Forge} 4 {Champion of the Parish} 3 {Norin the Wary} 4 {Ajani's Pridemate} 26 creatures 4 {Lightning Helix} 4 {Path to Exile} 8 other spells Sideboard 2 {Rest in Peace} 2 {Shatterstorm} 2 {Wear // Tear} 3 {Sowing Salt} 3 {Boros Charm} 3 {Leyline of Sanctity} 15 sideboard cards

I feel proclamation is most efficient for your deck asuming its like most soul sisters and focused a lot on some 1 drops

Revileark is my opinion

I kinda like proclamation due to CMC. 

Yea^ its just too good of a fit in this deck, the rest dont quite justify themselves
You dont have enough of any other CMC to justify anything besides sun titan, which is super expensive in whats essentially a nonaggressive weenie deck.. Maybe SB 1 titan if you must

I think {sun titan} rounds out your mana curve given your low CC creatures.  I like his late game potential he brings to this deck....especially since reanimating removed creatures is more of a mid-late game tactic anyway.....IMO


I also like {ajani vengeant} in this deck but not too much in the theme I suppose

Its just a dead card until lateish game and he hardly has any non 1cmc cards

I think 1 sun titan would be alright but thats your call, i just dont think any more would be beneficial since reanimating your 1 drops is crucial

I'll add 1 sun titan and 2 proclaims toon of rebirth. If I don't like the sun titan I'll replace it with another rebirth.

I find that agreeable lol

Ever consider {Immortal Servitude}? For 1 more mana you can just bring back your whole gy.

EDIT: Nvm, it's already listed as an option. Well that's my recommendation.

On a side note, a singleton or even two {Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx} could be really good. Especially with those Leylines coming in, game 2 can get explosive.

I would go with servitude

Servitude is good and all but chances are hell just cast it for 4 mana and get 1 drops back anyways, so its a slightly worse card, hell likely never cast it for 5 cuz his 3 drop creature just isnt crucial, and if he casts it for 6.. Well he might as well get a sun titan out of it

IDK......I think reanimating is typically a 50/50 chance of being useful.  Meaning you either are stuck with a reanimation card that you don't need right now or you do need it and then it may still only be marginally effective.  With the Titan at least you have a beater that could make a big difference in a long game.

{divinity of pride} looks good in this too

Servitude is a spell. It can be countered like a spell.

If you use proclamations forecast it's an ability, so it can't be countered. Only way to stop it us with a needle effect or counter an ability.

Idt thats the argument thought because the forecast is so high priced, its so much better to just cast o.o
But it is some nice late game tech of course

Soul Sisters isn't meant to go late game. If one has a Purphoros on the field, and you Servitude for 1, you kinda just win the game. Also the majority of the deck is 1 drops, so Servituding for 1 is extremely good. Servitude brings back creatures with CMC equal to X, so casting for 5 grabs 2 drops, not his 3. Anyways, Proclamation is good, but on your 3rd land there should really be no reason why you need to cast it, especially with 23 lands, you should have a land almost every turn. As for Titan, he's a great card, but going back to my first point, you shouldn't need to go late game with Soul Sisters. Titan is at best a turn 8, which is really slow for Modern, and he can't swing in 'til turn 9. A turn 5 Servitude following up either a board wipe, spot removal, or good trading, can be devastating, it will also almost always net you a ton of life, which pretty much throws "Gain X life." on to the card as well. It can be argued that Proclamation reads the same way, but Servitude's is usually higher, which is good for reanimating a 6/6 flying beater.

Honestly I'm not a huge fan of R/W Sisters, I prefer mono-{W}. This is still a pretty neat deck though.

I meant to say 2 drop not 3

And i guess servitude and the 3 cmc card are both just fine, it all depends on how many 1 drops you need to reanimate

Try em both out! I like servitude as a card just cuz its sweet so maybe you should use that :)

Thanks for your opinion. I love this deck. Not the best, but definitely fun.
