Erebos —Nov. 18, 2013

so, in testing i found that having Erebos, God of the Dead was far more useful than Purphoros, God of the Forge

ideal situation

Geralf's Messenger + Gravecrawler = 5/7 indestructible

oh lol, they use Path to Exile or something akin to it

sacrifice gravecrawler, causes erebos to no longer be a creature...fizzles removal...and you just beat down your opponents face in this manner indefinitely

(not to mention a life cap, card draw, a use for the life buffer)

I would go with Barrage of Expendables and maybe some Act of Treason

after ALOT of testing...i realized i needed to change the flow a bit.

moved alot of stuff around, but the deck assuredly runs alot more smoothely and is more consistent with controlling board state or stalling until i have a win con

How about Act of Treason ? it helps with removal.

i have Traitorous Blood sideboarded, if they are running a mid/late game deck ill sub em in for Tenacious Dead . i don't have a huge issue with removal, atm my main issue is keeping a field presence early game (primarily guys who can chump block if worse comes to worse)

3x Graven Cairns instead of Akoum Refuge

2x Lavaclaw Reaches instead of Rakdos Guildgate

and it'll be perfect

Unending Torment of Erebos

testing a golgari version...in testing i've had better results using Erebos, God of the Dead MB'd instead of purphoros because he is safe from almost everything, and i can even protect him from Path to Exile by saccing one of the critters giving devotion lol

need some advice...all in all i don't really LOSE anything by dropping red, and gain stability and another valid beater/blocker Lotleth Troll
