Use Shadowborn Apostles as your rank and file army, and get xathrid and athreos out on the field as soon as possible. Use shadowborn demon and cartel aristocrat to generate 2/2 zombies off of your shadowborn apostles, desecration demon and master of the feast will be your big hitters and use immortal servitude to resurrect any creatures that may have died prior to athreos hitting the field

Though its not a massive part of the deck the fact that RIP stops Athrous's ability. . . do you think having some decide or something like that in side would help... or even some watery graves and nulifys?

But i do like the deck. :)

That's a good point, forgot about that card, threw in some revoke existences in so hopefully that will cover me

Master of the Feast is a bit of wildcard.

yeah, at the same time a 5/5 flyer on turn three seems to be more of a threat to my opponent than to me, though i realize that won't be necessarily true in all scenarios, it'll take some playtesting to see for sure how well it will work or not

I'd stick with Herald of torment. I can't see master of the feast working out in your advantage outside of aggro decks. On another note high priest of penance should be replaced too, there's to much removal that doesn't deal damage.

erm... what were you using him as?

As a pacifism affect to stop big guys swinging in, or to deter people from using things like volcanic fallout?
