Notes:
Post rotation intend to add {Honor of the Pure}. Also, looking for {Caves of Koilos} and {Isolated Chapel} (unsure whether i really need Shocks.) to help solidify my mana base. Will also open up more diverse play options in either mono {W} or {B}.

just based on your notes {isolated chapel} isnt standard legal.

That's why I said Post rotation, as in when Return to Ravnica/Gatecrash/Dragons maze
Leaves standard

But  {Isolated Chapel} is from Innistrad. So post rotation, are you making this causal.
Sorry! Just wanted some clarification

No no I'm going to modernize it. (Yes it needs a lot of work I know.) but yeah, that's the plan.

If we want to "modernize" it.
I don't know about $
But {Obzedat, Ghost Council} for repeated life loss/gain and on a decent body.
For just a good bashed {Blood Baron of Vizokpa}
Or we could just go soul sister style, with pinging {Soul Warden} {Suture Priest}

As in terms of "modernizing" as in making it modern playable, that's going to require money even if we made it a brew. Which I will happily help you if you want to go that route

If we want to fix it for standard at the moment.
Lets go
4 {High Priest of Pennance}
4 { Alms Beast}
2-3 {Ultimate Price}
{Duress}

Unfourtaintly this is becoming a Black White Midrange deck, which I play a lot,
So I have a feeling that nots what your shooting for

{ordeal of heliod} over {ordeal of erebos}.
if your not actually playing hand disruption theyll just try to play around it. also {spectra ward} is a sweet card for {heliod's pilgrim} to tutor for.
