Deck Description

A concept that I have discussed before with other people but never had the chance to do: Ripple out half your deck with Thrumming Stone..... In commander

How to Play

If you can get out Trumming Stone early, then you are laughing. Basically, you get out lots of Shadowborn Apsotle like all those Demon decks we saw when M14 was in Standard and sac them for a very large demon!
An alternate way to win is to get out Door of Destinies and pick Human as the creature type, then watch as your 1-drop humans become stronger than any Demon in MTG!

Deck discussion for Erebos' Minions EDH

You asked for feedback, and in my opinion, I do not reeeaaally like this particular version. While it may work, I do not feel /confident/ in it.

It relies entirely on the mass of shadowborne apostles. If I were in your meta, I would just run one card like surgical extraction (completely useless in most EDH decks) but in your case, I'd basically claim victory.

Likewise, you have only a handful of demons, in a protracted game, as long as they can overpower your demons, you're not a massive threat. Your apostles will only do so much, especially if door of destinies never shows up. I think that, without some graveyard capabilities, a couple tutors, and maybe a field wipe or two, it will not be an effective EDH deck.

It's pretty much a joke deck. I don't expect it to do much, but it should get a laugh out

A 75$ joke is kinda meh to me unless you have a lot of the cards already. :P

You'd be better off trying to turn it into something functional. But, I guess I cant say for sure this wouldnt work. Ive not tried it.

Yes, maybe more demons would work, for shadowborn apstole's ability

More demons likely would not help. With 50 apostles, you can summon roughly 8 demons. So, he has all eight that he could feasibly summon. The biggest issue is he has no way to return them to his hand or from the graveyard to play, which is what typically makes or breaks an apostle deck.

Ok why is this deck Erebos?? I mean the passive is alright but it's no where near as good in this deck as Aetheros, 1 mana for an 18 dmg burn AND a big creature?? not to mention you could direct the damage in threes so you'd have very little damage waste. Also then he'd solve the problem of having recursion for your apostles, and board wipes would be awesome instead of terrible for you. You might also want to try adding cards like Xathrid necromancer, Village cannibals, and Ob Nixilis Unshackled, and requiem angel. You could put some really good anthems in there because of white, Like sublime Archangel, and mentor of the meek. Angel of glory's rise would be insane after sacking all of your Apostles.

but I'm a n00b so I may be missing something lol anyway consider it I think this deck could be awesome and hilarious.

That would be a completely different deck and it sounds like a good idea. Let me see what I can do
