I tried to build an exaulted deck very similar to that. I played vs my friend's blue/white control deck and I lost somewhat badly. I knocked him down to about 5-6 life both games but he started locking me down and there was nothing I could have done. One time he got Elesh Norn out and I was like fml he board whipe me

Very solid deck, so I can't really think of anything for you to sideboard but I did notice your deck is a bit on the slow side I think your sideboard would have to revolve around dealing with fast aggro decks like burn, humans, zombies or tokens.

I was playing with the idea of either going with vapor snag or dismember, I think I'll sideboard vapor snag and see how that works, as far as battleground geist, the mana curve is way too high for my liking. Yea I'll take a look at your deck.

I'm pretty sure this combo wouldnt' work because as it enters the grave you shuffle it back into your deck, the ruling would have to be presented to a judge to clarify. But also even still you need to get all 3 cards in your draw to pull off this combo. Also assuming that you are going first as well, because if you go second someone can just unsummon, vapor snag, or fog. Also just for decks like these I run 4x Force of Wills, and 4x mental mistep ^_^

The probability of drawing that hand is extremely low, but I still think its a neat idea, and because of those combos that I run force of will(s). Overall cool idea tho.

I'll take Propaganda into consideration, its just not a very fun card, I don't like having to slow myself down just to slow other people down. I'm going to run it vs a white token deck, a black zombie deck and a burn deck and see if I can survive vs those three traditionally fast decks. I still appreciate your comments. I been checking out a lot of different users and you and "surewhynot" are the two who I find make the most interesting decks.

I might try throwing that into my deck, I have a very similar deck but I dont use sensei's devining top, instead I just make most of my vampires black, or black/red. Acutally if you have time I like you to take a look at it for me. Thanks

There no card that makes a creature permanently indestructable and unremoveable, this is why Magic the Gathering is a very blanced game. You can at best give her hexproof with swift boots, but that doesn't prevent removal cards like day of judgement, wrath of God, oblivion ring, black sun zennith etc. But the biggest problem that I see in your deck is the four black lotus. Like I said no one has 4 black lotus.

There are so many things I see wrong with this. First of all yea this deck is illegal in any format. Two who the hell has 4 black lotus, three casting Platinum Angel doesn't make you win, her ability is only active while shes in play. So for example while shes still in play if your life drops below zero you won't lose, or if you deck out you won't lose and if your opponent gets a card that says he or she wins like in the example of the card Near-Death Experience.

well Liliana isn't really used to win, shes used to discard cards, and I guess maybe I can use her final ability, but her primary purpose isn't used to win. This deck in general is just to annoy and control, I'm still debating on throwing in some black sun zenniths to kill all creatures.

finally made the changes in the deck with vision charms it seems to work very nicely with brain freeze, and the storm ability, thanks for the suggestion.

nice deck, I thought about using sensei's divining top in the past but still debating if it was worth it, how does the deck play out for you?

Vision charm is a good card I'll more than likely change tomb scour out with Vision Charm, but as far as propaganda, since it cost 3 mana and its only slight slow down I perfer vapor snag.

Made some quick changes, and reviewed what you had to say, so I took out the doom blades and added the dismembers, I agree that dismember is a nice card, but I already explained that feast of blood still works better in certain cases so I'm running 2 of each removal cards. As for Olivia shes there for 3 reasons, 1 shes black/red so when shes at the top she still pumps up vampire nocturnus, and 2 shes really great vs token decks I can ping all those irritating flying spirits, she also pumps herself up when she pings thems. Lastly in late game when you have a lot of mana to kill, the ability to ping turn a ceature into a vampire and taking it over is a great control aspect. I wouldn't run more than 2 or 3 tops because she is pretty situational card.

I might be misunderstanding the concept behind your mill deck so please fix me if i'm wrong. But I think in mill decks if you splash a color black would be better. But as it is I would make these changes:
I would take out the ice cage and replace it with guard gomazoa because it is flying cost the same mana and can technically take more of a beating(unless someone is running a burn deck).
I would take out the 4 increasing confusion and put in 2 Traumatize.
I would up your Thought Scour to 4, up Brainstorm to 4. I also like Visions from Beyond a little better than preordain because in a mill deck your opponent will reach 20 cards in his graveyard pretty fast.
I would also take out the 4 Harrow for 4 dreamtwist, in a mill deck you wouldn't really need that much mana ramp most of your mill cards are pretty cheap to begin with, vapor snag is something you might consider for quick defense or if you like a chump block I prefer dawntreader elk over dilgent farmer.

Good luck on your deck.

thanks, and if you want a cheaper modification of this deck, I'd take out the 4 Jaces, and put in 4 unsummons, doesn't work as great but still gets the job done.

So the cost of this deck can be altered a bit, First of all if you take out the 4 Blackcleave cliffs and the 2 verdant catacombs, it would drop the price of the deck by a good 50 dollars. And honestly they aren't even that important, it helps but those 6 lands isn't truely needed. The second thing is that my vampire nocturnus are actually promos, which I spent about 40 bucks for all 4, much cheaper than the original costing about 25 each. So subtracting the cost of the vampire nocturnus and non-basic lands would drop this deck cost by 100.
As far as how vampire nocturnus works, if you noticed most of my creatures are black or black/red, I only have 4 cards in that deck that are not black and black/red still counts as black so vampire nocturnus's ability will still kick in. The reason I prefer feast of blood over doomblade is that it has no restriction of color, and this deck builds vampires up very fast so 90 percent of the time I will have at least 2 vampires out. But you did give me a good idea I think I will sideboard 4 dismembers.

I run a very similar deck but instead of rakish heir I run vampire nocturnus, and instead of 2 sorins I run 1 Liliana. Check it out if you have time tell me what you think.
