Great deck as always! This made a great Christmas gift!

My Timmy friend is going to love his Christmas gift! Thanks, Northy!

This made a great Christmas gift. Thank you, Northy!

Built this deck for a friend who loves playing mono-Black as a Christmas gift. He loves it! Thanks as always, Northy! MTGVault should pay you for your contributions to their site!

FNM 6/17/16:
Went 2-1-1 and finished 10th out of 26. Most difficult match was against Naya Tokens. Should have sided in more counter spells for the targeted bounce spells in Game 2. Draw came against a B/G Elves deck that survived game 3 on turns on 1 life. Need to play the deck faster and would have got the win.

Sorry for just now responding! Love what you've done with Sigarda, Northy! And thanks for the love.

You're the best, Northy!

Dude, I love your decks! I have built several of them and they play so smoothly and usually have good success. Most importantly, they are fun! You have an uncanny ability to make your decks account for lots of things while also staying efficient.

Would it be too much to ask to get a Budget EDH for Sigarda? I looked through your library and didn't see one. I love this card and I have an EDH deck which utilizes a lot of graveyard shenanigans to nab the equipment or enchantment that she needs.

Was just curious to see what your take on the card would look like.

Thanks Northy!

I play tested this and got hosed by some pre-con decks. I like the idea of the deck (which I'm guessing is to just get Sage of Hours going off for lots of turns?), but I think it's missing a few things. For a 3 color deck, I think you have way too few lands. I know you have some powerful lands in there and your curve is pretty low, but I found myself mulliganing a lot and very few times did I have the mana I needed. Also, I think you have too few creatures for a deck like this. What are you going to do with all your extra turns from Sage of Hours? Cast protection spells? The only real "game winner" would be the Hydra but there are definitely better options in Bant. Phalanx Leader is great but the WW is tough. Also, you have some problems against fliers. I recommend reading the following article on this type of deck: http://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/the-casual-monster-siege-of-hours . The guy has tested this and has a way for Sage of Hours to give you infinite turns. Then you use unblockable abilities to just swing in every turn. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Have you toyed with God-Favored General? He can be a nice token engine, especially with Convoke abilities. You could add some Devouring Light (really good with all your creatures because it's basically a free spell and it exiles). I would maybe sub out some Pacifisms for that. Ephemeral Shields could go in for Feat of Resistance. I think Convoke is your best friend in a deck like this. You may also consider Triplicate Spirits. Also, take out Take Up Arms (too slow) and add another Launch the Fleet. Vanguard of Brimaz is another good consideration since when you target him with Launch the Fleet, he adds 2 creatures.

Anyway, cool deck! I have a similar Mono White Soldier deck that is more "Tribal/Beatdown" but you might be able to take inspiration from it.

Good luck!

Thanks!

You have some great ideas. The idea with Palace is that I would always choose Dragons. But you are correct that adding more removal, may make that option more viable. Ya, Diplomacy of the Wastes is definitely the weakest card in the deck. I really just wanted it for an extra 2 burn, but maybe Despise will make the Shrieks better. I will have to playtest with some of the cards you mentioned and make any necessary adjustments. Thanks again!

Thanks! Ya, Underworld Dreams has nice synergy with Damnable Pact for sure. I'm trying to only use cards from the Khans of Tarkir block however, because I don't want to have to buy more cards once things rotate. Thanks for the comment!

Here's what I came up with if you're interested: http://www.mtgvault.com/pepsidime/decks/boros-heroic/

It playtests pretty well but I need to take it to an FNM for a better feel. I've gotten some sick turn 3 kills with this deck.

Ya, definitely! Thanks for the feedback. I'm working on a heroic deck as well and I might use this as inspiration. I'll let you know if I take it to FNM!

This is interesting. How does it play?

Nice deck! What made you choose to go Gruul instead of Boros? How does it play?

Love the deck.

How about Golgari Grave-Troll? Dakmor Salvage?

Awesome man! I have several of those cards. I'll have to see how I can work them in. Thanks again!

Thanks for the card ideas! I've only been playing since Avacyn Restored so my collection is rather limited but this is my first real attempt at an EDH deck. I'll look into those cards. Know anything that would help me accelerate card advantage besides chaining ETB effects from the graveyard via Dredge?
