Bloodinmykhorneflakes, the new rules applied keyword status to indestructible, but didn't apply it to unblockable, instead they decided that ability was defeatable by Turn//Burn.

Two things, if this is truly post Innistrad then all the buddy lands must go. Secondly, the Dimir Keyrune is unblockable and you can attach ciper to it which will stay even after it becomes an artifact again. Looks good though, you have a leg up on most of us who are still trolling around with Innistrad.

Another viable option is to run Turbo Fog. Pull Abundant Growth, Cyclonic Rift, and Unsummon and replace with Fog, Clinging Mists, and Druid's Deliverance.

I suppose Disperse would do, you could then Dimir Charm your opponents deck and put that card and another card in the yard. Duress is a fix, not an end all be all. The other option would be to load up your SB with counter spells like Negate and Dissipate. That would mean siding out equal amounts of removal which wouldn't be a bad thing against decks with few creatures.

There isn't a stitch of removal in this deck list. Not sure what you are raging about guy. The facts are the 4 extra cards you think are going to slow this down are Apostles. A hand with one mana is fine.

Plus Dimir Charm allows you to basically scry 3. Extremely helpful when looking for that missing ingredient.

Duress is always the best option when dealing with opponents SB.

I cannot agree with Cannibals over Necromancer, a single sac session or boardwipe makes a more valuable board state alone.

The SB Duress and Appetite for Brains are the only options against the likes of Slaughter Games, Pithing Needle, Rest in Peace, etc. As far as drawing all 4 demons...well can't do much about that except mulling hands with one in it. Sign in Blood was reprinted in M14. I expect Theros to have more demons, but nothing can replace Grisels draw power.

Bone Splinter is a good option, especially in the SB. The biggest threat against spot removal is Olivia, your only options are Splinter and Tragic Slip for the most part.

-2 Rooftop Storm - certainly don't want more than one in your hand.
-2 Diabolic Tutor
Swap Alter's Reap for Sign in Blood
-2 Lethargy of Blood
-2 Dispel
-1 Blood Bairn
-1 Bloodthrone Vampire
+2 Ultimate Price/Victim of Night - More removal and diversification choose one or both really.
+4 Dimir Charm - Mine and removal in a one package.
+4 Butcher Ghoul
Minimum 2 more mana.

Looks mostly complete, should you add all this removal, you'll have a better chance to either get to your combo or win before that is necessary. Good luck.

The 4 extra cards are apostles so it really has no effect on consistency other than making them more available then at 24 apostles.

Question, would you rather have more positive reasons to sac for a Skirsdag trigger? If so give bubbling cauldron a try. Also, Tragic Slip > than Orzhov Charm, and it dispatches those annoying mana dorks rather quickly among other things.

I've always been fond of playing Ajani, Caller of the Pride in Boros, Ajani provides utility as well as evasion. Might want to add 2-4 mana and adjust then adjust accordingly. Not a fan of Skyknight Legionnaire especially when cards like Ash Zealot offers more for less. Would main 2 Mizzium Mortars and drop at least 2 Gather the Townsfolk.

Good point on Blood Artist.

The extra 4 cards are apostles which creates a more consistent draw. On average my starting hand yields approximately 3.67 aposltes. Connections would be a great SB addition, currently Necromancer is a better main for my 3 drop. Thanks again for you suggestions.

Yeah it's rather sketchy against control or Jund mid range.

That's probably the craziest suggestion yet. They are all humans with Necromancer providing cover and utility when you sac 6 which become 6 zombies and a demon, that's a game winning board state. While alter's reap requires a sac for a 2 draw when I want 6 apostles on the board. Crazy I tell ya, crazy.

I can't argue with your logic. It's something I've added and removed (Sign in Blood) several times before making public.

I can't see a deck like this with less than 28 apostle, the numbers just don't stack up to getting 6 on the board. I'm using the same formula for mana fixing. My apostle curve is 6, and I want to consistently have the number by turn 4-5. I'm still mulling over the idea of fitting in Sign In Blood.
