Sacrifice Shadowborn demon's like crazy to get bigger ones, use thrumming stone to drop them faster.Exquisite Blood, Sanguine Bond is an alternate win con.

Good but it has problems. For one, it has no responses to anything aside from Reiver Demon, Nefarox, and Reaper from the Abyss. You need ways to deal with problem Artifacts and Enchantments as well. You can never have too much mana so I suggest Cabal Coffers, Gauntlet of Power, Caged Sun, and Extraplanar Lens. Spine of Ish Sah, Black Sun's Zenith, Effects that make your opponents sacrifice permanents, anything that will remove non creature permanents. A way to re-use your Apostles is a good investment as well. Shirei, Shizo's Caretaker is wonderful.

He can shuffle his Shadowborn Apostles into his deck with elixir of immortality if he uses its ability. Otherwise it should have more options like that.
Griselbrand is banned. http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/resources.aspx?x=magic/rules/100cardsingleton-commanderAmusing deck i suppose though
Detention sphere, Meddling mage, Cranial Extraction, Memoricide, Nevermore, Phyrexian Revoker, Voidstone Gargoyle, Slaughter Games, Haunting echoes and Shimian Specter could all cause problems for this deck.
Trying to make up for any bad karma left on this page when I last made a comment on this deck. What about rotlung reanimator ?
Slaughter Games is SUPER OP against a shadowborn apostle deck. WOW.
Obviously there are cards that give this idea problems, but I think you knew that going in to building a silly EDH of this type. Besides, if you're building an EDH deck with winning as the one and only intent, then you shouldn't be playing EDH. Personally I would use a few different demons, but honestly that's probably just personal preference. I think you could put in some other stuff that could ramp you up some more black mana so your Apostle spam can go faster. You could also put in things like Grave Pact so that when you sac the dudes you wipe the board (they lose six creatures and you get a demon? Sounds like a nice trade to me). You could even put in Pawn of Ulamog so you get eldrazi spawn tokens each time you sac those Apostles...That could give you secondary mana to hardcast some more demons. Obviously one big issue this deck can have is that it can totally whiff. Even with Thrumming Stone out you have a chance of everything sputtering out. I'll be honest, I don't know of too many ways to prevent these "whiffs", but again, I don't think you meant for this to be entirely serious. I would love to play against something like this, because I can just imagine it going off and how hilarious it would be.Hope that helps =]
Okay surewhynot what do I have to do now to redeem myself and get rid of the minus one on my comment. I can only assume you were the one to give my comment the thumbs down. If I it will help I will list lots of cards that would help the deck win. I don't understand why my comment displeases you, if is it only because it is not helpful enough I can fix it.
Actually, it wasn't me, but quite frankly man...Listing a bunch of cards that could beat a deck is not helpful. If anything, it's kinda 'rude'. It's kind of ironic we're talking about this, because GyKx has a 'deck' about how you could take that list of cards that beat a deck and change it into a list of constructive criticism.I'm not going to give it a -1 because I don't think you *meant* it to be rude or unhelpful, etc. but all the same, you should try to work on that kind of thing, because clearly someone did.EDIT: GyKx *HAD* a deck about it, was moved to private or something.
You've got to have Shirei as the commander for this deck ! You would be able to tutor a demon per turn with Shirei on board ! Great deck though mate - maybe consider adding in Immortal Servitude to bring back loads of the Apostles at once ?
i had thought about shirei as the commander but decided to go with a demon instead. And i can;t use immortal servitude because it has white as a mana option
Yep that's my bad forgot about that - Patriarch's Bidding? Could select either cleric or demon for mass revival?Why the demon for commander? The Apostles search your library and currently there's nothing to bring them back?
Immortal servitude is a great card for this but, it is white. I splashed white/green for my shadowborn EDH. That opens up a lot more removal for you to use on the artifact and enchantment fronts. It also let's you use those out of color cards like servitude, or bloodbond march.
I think Griselbrand is banned in EDH but still seems like a fun deck. Here is my EDH shadowborn Apostle deck if you want some ideas.http://www.mtgvault.com/melon57/decks/edhshadowborn-apostle/
I like the idea, but Griselbrand is banned, so you should take that out and maybe add a card for more mana.
Maybe one like Sol Ring.
