You should check out my deck Liliana / Sorin, Lord of Tokens. Very similar to what I'll be playing at FNM & Dragon's Maze Pre-release this weekend.

Should have been using those Ghost Quarter(s). Good-bye Guildgate(s), Hello Ghost Quarter(s). I cannot believe how much this deck has improved by just getting rid of 2 Orzhov Guildgate(s) & 1 Swamp / 1 Plains. Fetches me the land I need, sac 1 of opponents high value lands or that Forrest those Arbor Elves love to keep untapping, slows down opponents progress, & gives me a quick shuffle. Awsome.
Casual Environment - Virtually Undefeated w/ few exceptions. Friday Night Magic - Top 8. Lost to Reanimator Spiked Decks. This deck is made from cards I actually have, I try to build w/ a budget in mind b/c I don't have 100s of dollars to spend on all the best cards or Mom/Dad bank rolling my play. The only thing in this deck that is expensive is the Liliana's, I'm luck to have them they were pulled out of booster packs when I started playing again. The Odzedat was pulled from a pack last week as well. The guys using Reanimator around here have full playsets of the Top Rated & Most Expensive Cards (Angel of Serenity, Thragtusk, Shock Lands...) & are just spiking Pro Decks making them hard to beat. Against everyone else this deck is exceptional. Went 2:1 against Mill, I had too many creature to early in the game for 1 of the Wins & took out 1 of his only creatures by Tragic Slip to 1 of my own creatures (Spirit token) to go in & Morbid Tragic Slip his Restoration Angel (would have worked the same w/ his Angel of Serenity). Aced mono-red by Tragic Slip & Oblivion Ring to anything he tried to put on the board from the beginning & just aggro attacked little by little to the W. Aced Zombie/Vampire Undying "blink" Lifegain/Lifedrain themed, played out like the vs mono-red. Aced another guy who was close to mirror, but his deck was way slower. No Intangible Virtue / No Gather the Townsfolk / No Liliana / 1 Sorin.... was trying to use Phantom General in the place of Intangible Virtue. I just used Tragic Slip & Oblivian Ring while I built my Human/Spirit army by the time he had anything on the battle field that he could use I was dropping Intangible Virtue to boost an army for the W.
Entering this Deck in FNM tomorrow, Standard. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sideboard is Incomplete at this time. Suggestion for Sideboard also welcome.
Appreciate the great ideas. Soon as Dragon's Maze hits the shelves, I will be departing Innistrad Block for Standard. Your suggestions have been very helpful for future integration Return to Ravinca Block cards into this deck. I have the Paranoid Delusions, Soul Ransom, & Dimir Charm already, which will help me get a jump on this. I also have a Mind Grind that I see having an amazing presence in this deck as well.
Entering Friday Night Magic w/ this deck tonight. Tournament is Standard, but I'm going to represent Block to the fullest. Plan on testing this deck against competition to determine strengths & weaknesse before the Block tournament at the end of April. Any suggestions & comments more than welcome.Note: Would have included 2 Increasing Confusion, but unfortunately I do not have any.
Walking Corpse is in both M13 & Innistrad. I'm partial to him b/c casting is proportional to P/T. Low casting cost & easily boosted. I know there is other things I could replace him with, but I try my best to limit the # of any 1 R or MR to no more than 2 each per deck. I don't have a massive collection or unlimited supply of cash to afford 4 of every R or MR I like to use. Appreciate the comment. If you have any suggestion please add them.
I agree. The Mana Ramp proxy is Descendents' Path to an extent. Getting Descendents' Path out early is key to getting those Angels on the battlefield. Not full proof, but effective.
Sideboard is incomplete at this time. Any Feedback would be appreciated.

This was 1st version of this deck. Check out see the New & Improved version - Tibalt of Innistrad. Having success with this deck. He is growing on me. He just has to be used correctly.
Would have liked to have used the Intangible Virtue & Lingering Souls; however, they have been deemed to pwerful under this format.
