Good point.

Is there any way we could add cracklimg permitters to have a way to kind of bleed them out as a alternate win condition?

Fog could be also option but his idea about  {Sphere of Safety} has its own charm... If it would be played control wise then turn 5 you would be able to lock opponent... The problem with fogs would be that you could easily run out of fogs... And you need about 15 turns to set up gates for win condition... According to my playtesting...:)

Edit: Also I think there is no need for Pilgrims... I would rather play  {Sphinx's Revelation} and wipes there...
Hmmm that does seem a lot better.

Okay so I've been testing the changes. A problem that normally arises it that  {Augur of Bolas} doesn't normally help pull much since I only have about 5 targets for its ability so most/all of the time im losing potietially better draws. So Idk if I should cut back on him or take out

And take out 1 {Consuming Aberration}, 1  {Murder} to make a third ghast. How about that?
Sounds good to me

-3 triumph of cruelty
+1 {auger of bolas}
+2 {think twice}

Help you get to the mastermind quicker?  P.s. I like your usage of The disciple with desecration demon

Thanks, and if I did drop the  {Triumph of Cruelty} then I'm worried about not having enough discard for the  {Shrieking Affliction} so is there any replacement for those as well? Or do you think they'll still be fine?

Taken out totally.

Ok, maybe the  {Crypt Ghast} can take three of those slots but what's a replacement for the other three empty slots

Possibly also  more {Augur of Bolas}es could help its amazing card!

I say something like this:
-3  {Shrieking Affliction}
+2  {Augur of Bolas}
+1  {Crypt Ghast}

Alright, okay I'll make the changes and test it out.

{desecration demon}. He is unreliable and only sometimes useful, whereas you pick how useful the ghast is

Alright but then I would also need a replacement for the  {Disciple of Bolas} cause  {Desecration Demon} was the ideal sac for  {Disciple of Bolas}

Consider {crypt ghast} to help get you enough mana for bolas faster

Alright, but what should I take out for them.

Champion doesn't fit.
he was supposed to. I just didn't have enuf of him to make a real show of him building with the  {Orzhov Charm} /  {Doomed Traveler} interaction. So any ideas of a replacement for his slot
