Sidisi Whip variant using towershell, nighthowler and nemesis to get surprise kills.

It is a fairly simple game plan.

Sidisi cranks out zombies and feeds the yard.

Nyx weaver is nice little chump blocker who adds to open grave, but where this little fella shines is surprise mid to late game. When you look to be out of options he can exile himself to bring back a much needed Whip,killspell or aqueous form.

The bigger the graveyard the less safe your opponent should feel when you bestow a nighthowler on a sidis with aqueous form and call it game over.

Nemesis of mortals is a nice vanilla creature that should be easy to cast early with taigams help.he goes monstrous pretty easily mid to late game and 10/10 is nothing to sneeze at when you draw up a form and give them two turn clock.

Meandering towershell is a sweet five drop with an extremely tough back. he can either sit there and take the shots all day or you can swing with him and make him terribly hard to get rid of. Not to mention he combos with the whip really well. Somewhat similar to the ghost whip decks before the most recent rotation (R.I.P. Ghost Daddy)

Nighthowler can either be a nice threat on his own or be bestowed for some serious shenanigans. The larger the yard grows the fatter he gets.

Im only rocking two digs in this build for draw power as i dont want to delve out my yard too much. And i am only running the four cuts as a form of removal. You can always use a weaver to bring one back if you are desperate.

The card to use for the sneaky win when all hope looks lost is aqueous form. Drop it onto a fat howler, a sidisi (for zombie dropping and walker killing) or a monstrous nemesis. I am not sure how the stack works exactly in the sidisi situation but i believe you can stack the scrye first so if you can be sure to get your zombie by cycling the land to the bottom in hopes the next card is a creature.

The whip of erebos is the card that will win you games consistently by giving your army lifelink. Most sidisi whip decks are running hornet queens i love that card but have opted for the toweshell in its place.

My mana base is screwy looking.. fetches and straight basics with a couple of confluences to help balance out the color draw. I figure this way i can stack the yard for my cuts and make sure i get what i need when i need it in mana production.

the sideboard is built for decks running lots of walkers that i dont think i can beat down or enchantment/combo decks. I even have a little love in store for other delvers.

This decklist is a copy of my delving dilemma completely overhauled with what was working for me in testing.

Advice and plus ones as always are appreciated. upvotes are generally returned when i get them and expect some type of comment or advice when i look through your lists.

Current list is running zero digs to test with the suggested soothsayer.
