Yes, I know it's kinda boring. However, it's really fast, pretty consistent, and can win games out of nowhere with {Brave the Elements} and/or {Launch the Fleet}. So I like it. All help is appreciated, but I'm mainly looking for help with the sideboard. Maybe for stuff against mono black. (Was hoping for a {Devout Lightcaster} reprint... but no. :( )

I don't usually hit 6 mana except in board lockups against agro, and then I'd rather put my mana into {launch the fleet} instead of a card with low p/t that is a dead draw early game. Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think that will work in this deck.

Considered {banisher priest}?
More susceptible to removal than banishing light but also can beat in damage.
Also with JOU i wouldnt be surprised if enchantment removal is as prevalent as creatures removal or close to it, but i guess thatll be decided after the meta settles. A good card to keep in mind is all

MisterJH

{boros elite} {fiendslayer paladin} {frontline medic} {archetype of courage}

Im sure youve looked into all of em and they probably dont quite have a place in here but they all have theyre uses and are worth a mention imo just in case.

The idea with {banishing light} is to get rid of annoying planeswalkers and {detention spheres}, so I think in this situation it's better. However, had it been in the main board I probably would have agreed with you. Thanks for the suggestion.

Archetype: sorta forgot about it, but this deck wins quickly enough and is mostly attacking with small guys, so it won't work so well except with {spear of heliod}. Which is another 3 drop. My curve is already a little weird, so I'm staying away from it. Frontline feels a little slow for the power level. Fiendslayer is more a sideboard against RB, which may be a good idea. I'll have to see how much RB I play and/or test against. I have been strongly considering boros elite, but I don't like not being able to swing for 2 turn 2. However, I'll be testing it, probably over the dryad militants.

Thanks for the help!

It's slow. I don't need something they won't attack into, I need something that will attack.

Godsend is... Im really torn on it. Its a cool card for sure but not being an equipment makes it SO much less cool. If they do attack into it sure you exile a creature but if your creature dies you got outvalued all day
Plus he cant block flying anyways
So eh.. Idk id try playtesting in place of spear of heliod perhaps i you havent already, just my suggesh
