That's a good reason not to play them, and the 2/2 split looks good to me. My only complaint with the deck right now is that I don't like the inclusion of Dictate of Karametra. It's good, but so is the rest of your ramp and I don't know that it's good enough to warrant being 5 mana. It feels like win-more. Have you considered Prophet of Kruphix?

Nah. The odds that you draw all 4 are not Good so you can do that.

Hey, Hordechief should definitely be maindecked. It's really insane with either of the lords or Raider's Spoils. Which, btw, your top end is really heavy. I would take out a Rush of Battle, a Take up Arms, and two Defiant Strikes for a playset of Hordechiefs.

You should put the more expensive cards like Bloodsoaked Champion in the sideboard for people to see how it could be built with the right funds.

Dude, sweet deck. I thought Villainous Wealth would be constricted to sideboards. If I have one suggestion, it's that since you only need one Villainous Wealth to turn the game, drop one copy for another Nissa. Or something for Nissa, it's honestly one of the very best cards in the format. I wouldn't want to play a deck like this without about 3. And about 2 copies of Darksteel Citadel too, as indestructible 4/4s are pretty broke.

Thanks for that man. I'm also working now to break your pet format!

So with your deck, I don't think it's at all bad, but I think you have cards that pull in two different directions, creating some tension. Nightsky and Edge are extremely aggressive cards and a little weird to be combining with the likes of Souls of the Faultless and Night's Whisper/Disenchant. If I were trying to move forward with the deck, I would pick a direction first. Either more aggressive, or more control based. W/B is not actually very good at a midrangey build.

Personally, I don't like Nightsky decks any more. They're very dependent on two bomby cards... While Edge and Nightsky are good, they put you in a position to lose card advantage and then not be able to finish the game. (This is why you should include Death's Grasp to finish them in these decks. You should also have a back up flying force, like 4 Mourning Thrulls and 2 Beckon Apparition. Even Blind Hunter is playable in that deck.

If you went more in a control/attrition based direction, you should use the same rares but start with cards you know to be good in almost every situation-

attack the hand:
4 Castigate
3 Gerard's Verdict
3 Tidehollow Sculler
2 Sin Collector

and add more top notch removal:
3 Unmake
4 Pillory of the Sleepless
3 Mortify
2 Death Grasp

And then go from there.

Is there a ban list for this format? Because if not, things are about to get broken

Okay I guess I will join in the fun. People have already made a couple KTK clan Aristocrat decks, so here's Sultai to round out the cycle.

BTW, as someone with a lot of experience playing Nightsky Mimic decks- Where are your Pillories of the Sleepless?? And Castigate?! Gerard's Verdict? Mortify? You have access to some of the stupidest cards in the Aristocrat/Pauper Universe!

Sweet deck! Yeah, Delver of Secrets is pretty much going to destroy this format.

Command is pretty much the most important card in the deck

casey I am also surprised at the singleton Tar Pit. Since you can't fetch either manland, I would think that two Tar Pits would be better than the split between Lavaclaw Reaches

I would recommend Cauldron Haze instead of Second Sunrise, and either Death Pit Offering or Damnation instead of Phyrexian Altars. 2 Death Pit Offerings and 3 Devouring Greeds would give you a great end game. The only problem I see is getting Zuberas out quick enough, which is why I assume you chose Phyrexian Altar. If you have no problem remaining a casual deck, I would play the 4 Altars with 3 Devouring Greeds and 4 Cauldron Haze.

Shirei, Shizo's Caretaker and Blood Artist are also hella cute in this deck.

No. That would be dumb and would lead to exponential growth.

This is a fun archetype. I really like Urza's Guilt, but fear it is waaay too expensive for legacy. Actually this whole deck is a little iffy for legacy, which is why I assume it is a casual deck. Also if it wasn't it would need Liliana of the Veil. But as a casual deck, I like it a lot. I would still put some one mana discard spells of your choice in, either Duress or Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek.

If you are interested, I have a similar deck for standard, using Notion Thief. It's very fun to play. http://www.mtgvault.com/kmk888/decks/forcefeed/

Probably too good for modern. Think of how good B/G/x is already. That is mostly because of efficient attrition warfare, they don't need another tool.

That's a good explanation, I don't think I've ever fully considered him in Modern. Now I'm considering building with him and Skinrender or some other counter dispenser. Thanks!

If you like white enough, Twilight Drover is a powerhouse. I would also really recommend Mercy Killing. I haven't seen the Necroskitter in this archetype before, interesting idea. But sadly, the tokens won't come back under your control. Also like Rorindar's deck, blue is fun for Hunted Phantasm and Swan Song. It also offers several ways to target all the tokens, like Echoing Truth and Izzet Staticaster. This is my version: http://www.mtgvault.com/kmk888/decks/illness-orchard-3/
