You are going to get killed by {Stormbreath Dragon} and {Blood Baron of Vizkopa}. I would splash red for {Mizzium Mortars}.

Thats why there's {celestial flare} and {sphere of safety} in there

[DirtyMustachio]

Yeah, and I'm considering doing red when we see this new ajani, or maybe fated retribution in sideboard, which would be choice against red/green anyway

[Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth]

I really like this, I have been trying to design something similar. I may have to try this out at FNM next week...

[DirtyMustachio]

Keep me posted  and let me know any changes you make and how you do

[Sto5rm]

It's good.
Made my mono black aggro deck sweat all 3 games

[Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth]

Here is my idea of where the deck could go: run 4x {Sacred Foundry} and 4x {Temple of Triumph} in the mainboard. This would allow you to do some odd things with red in the sideboard, like run {Aurelia's Fury}, {Assemble the Legion}, {Boros Charm} (against control, running two sets of indestructibilities will destroy them) and a {Chained to the Rocks} (in the mainboard, instead of {Pacifism})

a {Chained to the Rocks} (in the mainboard, instead of {Pacifism})

Can you do this with only 4 mountains?

I have been playtesting it with 2 {Chained to the Rocks} and 2 {Pacifism} and it has been working pretty well for me so far. I might add 2 Mountains though.

That sounds ok. I was thinking about the full set of them and was wondering how consistent that would be...

I am still working with it, and I am trying to make the sideboard so that game 2 it is a completely different deck, so they can't just board against me. Playing around with everything including {Foundry Champion}, {Acolyte's Reward} and {Auramancer}, I'll report on how it goes. The main deck I am working with is slightly different too, here are my changes (I don't know if I will keep it this way and some of these are meta calls):
-1 {Spirit of the Labyrinth}
-4 {Hero of Iroas}
-3 {Gift of Orzhova}
-8 Plains

+4 {Rootborn Defences} (way too many control decks in my area not to...)
+2 {Archetype of Courage} (I think with this dude, my match-ups against other creature deck are more one-sided)
+2 {Ajani's Chosen} (his is a ETB ability, so even {Heliod, God of the Sun's} ability triggers it and you can get a critical mass of tokens really quick)
+4 {Sacred Foundry}
+2 {Temple of Triumph}
+2 {Mountain}

[DirtyMustachio]

Maybe no temples are really necessary it's pretty Aggro so four mountains instead of the temples might work

Like I said, still working on it. Also, my deck is more of a midrange.
