    One last thought -- you may want to run some blood crypts and godless shrines just incase someone slaughter games your apostles. lol

      not if I Slaughter Games their Slaughter Games.  :)

    yeah, those are better demons, but they will be rotating out in a few weeks.  So I will have to remove the blood artists, Griselbrand, and the Reaper, and put in a Shadowborn Demon and the Sire of Insanity.   When Blood Artists rotate out, I am thinking of splashing some red for Showstopper or not splashing red for Xathrid Necromancer

      Xathrid Necromancer seems like the best bet. Going for sire seems like a good plan as it denies your enemy plays, but i'd only cast it once you've stabalized enough to win the game because top decking between apostles and lands seems bad. You'll want a good sideboard plan for graveyard hate. Abrupt Decay should take care of any major graveyard hate permanents (Rest in Peace, Deathrite Shaman, Scavenging Ooze, grafdiggers cage, etc).

    This looks fun. Might need some stronger demons though. One interaction that would be hilarious would be to search your library for master of cruelties, followed by an immortal servitude on your next turn into a bloodgift demon. If they don't block, they'll die on your next upkeep if you target them.


    Another demon to consider is Harvester of Souls... it also happens to have some insanely good synergy with your apostles.

    added a couple other demons to the Sideboard for when stuff rotates out of standard. Hoping for some big bad demons in the next block.

    If you do wind up splashing red, Barrage of Expendables and Battle Hymn would be pretty hysterical.

    added some blood artists as an alternate win condition based on comboing the Immortal Servitude with Apostles later in the game.  you could build a red/black deck based around this, and completely leave out the demons.
  • Michael | 17-Jul-2013 18:12
    added Elixir of Immortality for the purpose of cycling demons back into my library if they were the target of removal.  Allowing me to use Immortal Servitude, then activating the ability on the Elixir, and then sacrificing the Apostles to get some demons back on the battlefield.
