Love it, but I don't see why is there a Coat of Arms . Also, why not use Lord of the Void or Griselbrand ? They look like stronger finnishers. Also, this is a personal opinion, but a Lashwrithe would be incredible here, because, what's stronger than a buff demon? A lashwrithed one as soon as he gets in. Also, a haste equipment would be useful aswell, like Lightning Greaves or Swiftfoot Boots .

Well, the coat of arms is in case i cant get any Thrumming Stone , or Diabolic Tutor to get it, so i can beat with the Shadowborn Apostile. Griselbrand and Lord of the Void don't have trample, and since this deck can atack from 7th turn on ( or 6th with those Lightning Greaves ) the other player will, probably, have an flying creature and i can't leave an opening to an Path to Exile or some other removal, so there is the trample

Lashwrithe could slow the game, i think, but lets discuss , Fallin211

I guess the one Coat of Arms is ok, it doesn't really get in the way and sometimes it's a great draw. I guess the use of Griselbrand and Lord of the Void is very dependable of the deck you're facing, so, you should at least keep them as sideboard. However, I think you could cut down the Demon of Death's Gate to 2 and add one of these, bringing a bit more range to the deck, but that's purely up to you.

Lashwrithe , is just a card that would be a lot of fun to use, that's why I'd include it. I would use it with the Demon's death's gate trample, because it should work pretty awesome, and with a Crypt Ghast on the field equipping it is really easy, but even if he ins't, it shouldn't take much of your time.

Play test a little the deck, is kinda hard to always have a Crypt Ghast on field, most of the time i don't and the deck can't depend on the mana ramp it gives, it is just an addition to the make it faster in case it comes in the opening hand or 1st/2nd buy.

Done some play tests, and Griselbrand with the Lightning Greaves is awesome!

Not only is he a 7/7 flying with lifelink, a real threat, but his ability to draw 7 cards is perfect to get the field full of shadowborn apostoles and another demon right on with him.

I think it's pretty great this way, might try it out later against other players online. What do you reckon?

I've been playtesting it, Griselbrand and the other 2 demons are awsome with the Lightning Greaves , they kick ass pretty hard. Thanks for the greaves tips, the deck got really fater with those. Can't wait until M14 is lauched and so I can make this deck come true.

faster*

No problem, I love this deck aswell, might even fall in love too deeply and get it for myself xD

Cheers, I'll keep my eye on this ;)

Thanks mate, try to popularize it here on tappedout so we can make it better, i will put your name on the creators list btw

But. . . there can only be 4 Tormented Souls per deck. . .?

Tormented Soul , as said on the description, are Shadowborn Apostles, a creature to be released on M14. But since M14 inst launched yet, i can't build the deck with it, so i replaced it with a creature with the same mana cost.

Ooookay. I didn't know what Shadowborn Apostle was.

Apparently some M14 cards work with TappedOut.net now, so you might be able to actually add the shadowborn apostles.

In fact, since this comment didn't return an error, you most assuredly can.

Look into Immortal servitude. Bring all those apostles back to sack again for 4 mana.

Interesting deck. I have a deck similar but I focus on using different demons as tools, mine is casual though, and has some non-modern legal cards.

For protection may I suggest Dash Hopes For 2 black mana you get to play a little bit of cruel control. Also as mentioned before Immortal Servitude is pretty decent mid to late game, drop 4 mana and get back all your Shadowborn's.

Personally I wouldn't go for Diabolic Tutor to me it would clog, sure it'll help you get out Thrumming Stone but if you draw into both of them it's just going to sit there. I'd suggest some cheap black draw spells, Sign in Blood and Read the Bones work pretty decent in this deck. mostly Read the Bones because it lets you set-up your draw, Oh i'm about to draw Griselbrand I'd rather not, then you can get to your shadowborn's faster.

Just a couple of thoughts.

Greate, really great suggestions, Taiyouai

I'm holding back a little bit on Dash Hopes because i don't know what to exchange it for.

For anyone willing to help, Is the ammount of Shadowborn Apostle enough?

I don't know, but usually 5 playsets of a card will make you draw it a lot.

Hey Thorn_Elemental here is my deck, it's casual and doesn't use Thrumming Stone , but maybe it'll help ya out a little.
