Curious as to what you would lose to add those cards? Maybe the Nighthowlers for Eidolons? Although having two different three drops with 1WW and 1BB casting costs could be sticky. Since your curve is so low, have you thought of adding any extort cards? Blind Obedience would slow your opponent down and help out your Ethereal Armors. Crypt Ghast could also work. Not sure if that is trying to do too much but it seems like you might have extra mana laying around after like turn 4.
I think I would try to keep the curve a little lower; this deck wants a big threat fast, and it wants mana up at all times to keep it alive with Gods Willing effects, so i would avoid cards over three mana. Merciless Eviction is a dope card, but at six mana in a 23 land deck, you're never going to cast it. I would instead look to add a few more efficient threats; the deck does a good job of making huge guys and keeping them alive, but if the opponent does manage to kill the threat, drawing a Spiteful Returned isnt going to put the pressure back on the opponent. -Boyf.
So I have 3 main problems with this deck and I'm not positive there is a way to fix all of them.1. I get stuck with my bestow creatures but not my Heroic targets. I get forced to play them when on their own they are crappy. I get stomped.2. I get a creature empty my hand making it huge/protecting it but I can't get ahead on the battlefield and without evasion I can't get through and then I slowly die.3. They kill my one good creature and I don't have time to rebuild.My ideas for solutions:1. Limit/remove the bestow creatures and add creatures that are better on their own. Out: Nighthowler, Spiteful Returned In: High Priest of Penance, maybe Fencing Ace, maybe Underworld Coinsmith, Maybe Eidolon Countless Battles, maybe Blood Scrivener2. Gift of Orzhova. Gives my creature evasion and lifelink.3. Dying Wish maybe or something like Immortal Servitude or this is where Merciless Eviction would come in. Dying Wish would make an opponent have to think long and hard about killing a giant hero or even make it not possible for them to do it if it is big enough. Combos great with Eidolon and Armor. Immortal Servitude brings them back. Merciless lets me clear their board in retaliation.To address your comments.I'm not worried about the double symbols in mana costs really. I forgot I could still use my Caves of Koilos so I now have 14 (and will eventually have 16) sources of Dual black and white mana so hopefully it wouldn't be an issue. I haven't really given Blind Obedience much careful thought until now and I'm not positive it would truly be helpful. I really like the card and want more for Azorious but here I think I'd rather run other things. The biggest help in my opinion would be preventing an opponent from recovering especially by getting bulk tokens but if that is their best option I imagine I'll still win even if it takes an extra turn or two. Crypt Ghast might be too high of a CMC for what it would give me. Looking over the deck and thinking about what may help me I'm not sure I even need Ethereal Armor honestly. The Ordeals only ever last a turn or two so the bonus from them is limited. Combined with Dying wish it'd be great but I also think Dying Wish could be great without it. Gift of Orzhova I feel is the aura I really want, the evasion alone is what I'm really looking for but adding lifelink really pushes it over the top in my opinion.When this deck does what it wants to I think it is one of my best decks, its making that happen more consistently is what I need to figure out.Thanks-Bill
I agree that the bestow cards are too situational and you would be better served to play more heroic threats, say Favored Hoplite and Fabled Hero. Also consider replacing the armors with either Boon of Erebos or Orzhov Charm. These changes add more heroic creatures and more enablers so you should be on track more often.
I really like the Fabled Hero idea. I like it better than the other creatures I listed. Having another Heroic target will help significantly I think. Boon of Erebos has always been a consideration as another protection card. Not positive I need it but it's the next card in as far as heroic triggers go. I like the versatility of the Charm but I'd really only ever use two of the modes and I have the same problem as with Ethereal Armor. Because the ordeals leave the board I'd be losing a lot of my investment by returning the creature to my hand. Granted it would protect the creature and Gift of Orzhova but I don't know. -Bill
