Notes:
The point of this deck is to really make them sweat athreos' ability...if they don't take three for the creature aristocrat sacrificed then I can bestow it on her for bigger damage going thru...also nighthowler here is great as when he is bestowed onto aristocrat she gets stronger each time she sacs a creature

Still a work in progress...all thoughts welcome
{underworld coinsmith}? And I would main board {thoughtseize} and downfalls.
I would play {hero of iroas} here over the {kingpins pet}. It just works better with the deck.
Also you have 5 obzedat in the main and side board, remove one also consider {hopeful eidolon} instead of {soldier of the pantheon}

Actually I forgot to go and change that but kingpins pet is actually {athreos, god of passage}

I agree here. He gets stupid when he gets big
Updated with suggestions and changed the sideboard a bit

In a fast running deck I like {Eidolon of Countless Battles} better than {Nighthowler}. Just because you'll probably have more creatures/enchantments on battlefield than creatures in your graveyard.
I'm going to be sacrificing my creatures to aristocrat so they will be dying a lot...nighthowler will make them sweat athreos' ability more...do they send the sac'd creature to the grave by paying three damage and make howler stronger or send it back to my hand where I can bestow it onto aristocrat or simple play it again for another sac outlet :)

{xathrid necromancer}
I have him in a different build (B/W humans) but don't think he fits this one quite as well :/
The initial combo with the new god and cartel with night howler seems amazing! Will be near to see a finalized tuned list!
I like the {eidolon of countless battles} as a sideboard card once you figure out how they are playing atheros. If they keep sending it to your hand {night howler} is ineffective and vice versa

I have thought bout that...I originally had 4 howlers in but took it down to 2 for that reason
Another point about {eidolon of countless battles} vs {nighthowler} in this deck is with nighthowler either choice due to {athreos'} ability bennifits me but with the eidolon only sending sending it back to hand bennifits me extra
How does {nighthowler} help more? The way I see with eidolon on the field, they won't wanna keep the eidolon strong so everything will get sent to the graveyard them losing 3 life in the process

Exactly...it's an easy decision for your opponent...but with the howler it's a hard decision...do I take three and increase howlers or enchanted creatures power or send it back to hand and give cartel more sac creatures or bestow creatures
I guess it's a personal preference thing lol...one more point for the howler is he still bennifits after {deicide} ;)
As the Mexican taco lady would say... Why not both?? Haha that would really ruin their decisions.

{Decide} isn't legal right?
{deicide} is from the new set...essentially you exile target enchantment...if it was a god search hand graveyard and library and exile them all (kinda obvious but that's not the official wording lol)
