I would drop the mana down to 23 or 22 since the mana curve is 2/3 and bump both WOP6 and consuming abarration up to 4 if you have them in your card pool. other wise not bad at all!!

thanks for the links, I can see why both decks made it into the top8!

So I made some minor changes to the deck. firstly! I swapped out 3 x wight of presinct six (these cards are rendered useless for this build) for 2 x hedron crabs. and kept the creature count at 16 rather then 17. Included 2 x crypt incursion to sideboard HR ( still like this card but might change to a duress or mind rot). Added 1 x mindbreak trap and an extra mind funeral.

For the lands I removed 2 x Dimier gulds gates ( i peronally think GG lands are over rated) and vivid lands, added 4 crack lands and dropped the land to 22 from 23.

And for the sideboard I removed 2 cancel, 2 far and away and added 2 echoing thruth and HR( your fav!).

I guess i'll find out this weekend if it's tournie ready!

thanks for the info! I tried to find the decks in the top8 but was unable to, do you have a link?

out the above cards that you suggested I went with what i had in my card pool.
2 archive trap - sideboard
1 visions of beyond - sideboard
1 surgical extraction - sideboard
2 horrifying revelations - I felt this as a good option for discard and a bonus mill.

nice work on getting 15 Shadowborn Apostles I've been wanting to build a deck like this, and i like psychic strike it's the new cancel with a free kicker ( I use 4 PS plus 2 cancel in my dimir deck just to be safe).

just though

thanks wastnbucks! to curve duskmantle seer i've got lifelink from Vampire Nighthawk which keeps me out of trouble, i've also kept high mana cards to a minimum for this reason plus it speads up the deck too.
