This isn't the complete deck (obviously,) just put some cards together that I thought would work well and now I need your help! What would you cut, what would you add, what other lands would you recommend (besides more 😜)

Spencer Addington

Any thought on adding {grave pact}?

is the whole deck foiled?
I don't have it all put together yet, but that's the plan, I'll note what foils I have already

Are you going to be running more than 14 lands I'm hoping? And also,  {Starlit Sanctum} is a boss.

Eh, gaining and losing 1 life is meh, I can see the potential with {coat of arms}, but I think there are better uses for sacrificing my clerics.

No {Coat of Arms}, anything but that. It helps opponents and it's super awkward when everyone is checking and cross-referencing creature types and subtypes, sometimes looking up the Oracle text for some creature types, and blah blah blah. Just avoid it!

 {Faith Healer} (for Athreos)
{Custodi Squire} (for fun)
{Grand Abolisher}
{Akroma's Devoted}
{Order of Whiteclay} (for Shadowborn)
{Transcendent Master}
{Sun Titan}
aaaand {Deathless Angel} (for the token)

Oh and more land. Like {Fetid Heath} for example.

Yep, love me some Orzhov EDH.

Edit: also,
{Deathbringer Liege}
{Sol Ring}
{Debtors' Knell}
{Unburial Rites}

I was also thinking, {Triad of Fates} might be a cool addition to flicker your Runescarred, could even swap them in as Commander some games.

What's that you say? Oh, yes! I do agree, the sisters do suck most of the time.

MuggyWuggy

Planar cleansing and other wipes to correspond with your Return to battlefield effects.

Also:  {Martyr's Bond} for more board control :)

Isochron scepter and all cheap removal for W/B :D


Door of destinies if you want a general buff, works great with conspiracy.

OOO OOO: my 2 favorite demons!!!
{Minion of Leshrac}
{Demonic Hordes}

Thanks man! Definitely liking grand abolisher and order of white clay!

Question though, why not just use {Heliod, god of white stuff} instead of {akroma's devoted}?

{Doubtless One}?
I'll think about it, but i don't really plan on having that many clerics on the field at one time..
