Gotten a ton of help so far. The end result is a sacrifice-less deck. I am on my way to the cardshop now to pick up what I need to finish it. Thanks for the help everyone, including those of you modest PM'ers.

Will post the finished deck here soon along with updating the OP.

What's the hotness on black cheap removal? How do you guys feel about {tragic slip}? I like the card but I've gotten mixed reviews from more experienced players.

How about {Altar's Reap}? I know we are moving away from saccing, but with all these low CMC cards I am suspecting we will need card income.

EDIT: too many replies to myself. New question - how viable is plugging in that {Sundial of the Infinite} combo that's raging in the combo corner? Its super tempting, but I am apt to let my plans get too big for my brain.

That's 20, Sorin makes 23.
Ok, this is going to seem pretty plain but at lease we have a direction now.

So far:
Land x 24

{Swamp}x5
{Plains}x15
{Isolated Chapel}x4

Spells x20

{Midnight Haunting}x4
{Lingering Souls}x4
{Gather the Townsfolk}x4
{Honor of the Pure}x4

Ok from here: How do we round this out to 60, and am I making the best use of my mana mix?

Bonus info: checked the gathering to make sure you weren't the other purple dot in VA before calling you that. Prepared for emergencies :)

Taken aboard Sin. Before I post my initial deck are there any objections to his suggestion? Meaning I am about to cleanse all the skirsdag/torturer creatures that benefit saccing and mainly go white weenie with B for Sorin and B removal.

He mentioned not having access to snap casters earlier.

Sweet deck! I thought it looked funky at first but this plays pretty well (1vs1) vs my roommates mono green.

Could someone link me to the database the card rulings are pulled from? When I bust this bad boy out to explain what just happened to their face, I want to be able to trace this app to the official listing.

Ahh, thanks for the clarification Cll. Basically you are throwing down "end turn now" on top of the triggered "hey it's end step lets get these guys back".

Very cool.

Thanks. I am assuming you would play it after Sudden has resolved. Although it makes me want to ask, why wouldn't sundial just phase all his stuff back as a result of "resolves all end of turn effects"?

I love every suggestion after Thicket. I don't quite understand the ultimate end goal with sundial of the infinite.

I will put up my deck later today. I have a nice selection of all current standard cards so tht shouldn't be an issue.

As for the thickets and splashing green (definitely want to, parallel lives ftw) what is the new ratio of green cards to thickets? I.e how many thickets should I trade out, and with that new number how many cards get swapped for green?

Like I said I will put the deck list up later, but as of now it's x4 chapel, x4 vault of the archangel with B/W rounding out 22 tot
