After playtesting this deck a few times, I saw that there wasn't much umph to the deck. So, my first revision is as follows.

IN: Archangel of Tithes, Resolute Archangel, Faithbound Judge  ^Flip, and Rogue's Passage

OUT: Springjack Pasture, Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, Aetherflux Reservoir, and Cosmos Elixir

Balaam_The only problems I've run into so far is I either go nuts and combo off or I get mana screwed miserably. I also have very little interaction with Wear / Tear and Patrician's Scorn like effects. I use to run Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit and Nine Lives but always found two Plains really hard to get. What would you suggest cutting? I'm thinking about a couple more fetches but I also need basics in case cards like Blood Moon happen.

Xenaphix02 I knew about Yawgmoth he already in the deck but Mazirek is the wrong colors atm the moment i'm either going Mardu with Alesha (which is the current built one) or grixis with Sedris. But with the mardu build I have access to Archangel of Thune, Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit and Vizier of Remedies to help go infinite with persist

Lands are working really nicely now, especially with the additions of Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire and Godless Shrine. Considering even running Takenuma, Abandoned Mire, but I think that's overkill.

The next change I would possibly make would be potentially going down to just 1 Vizier of Remedies, as crazy as that sounds. She really only shines with Devoted Druid, but at least the Druid is a mana dork on its own. The Vizier is basically useless on its own, and as a combo piece, is worse than Melira, Sylvok Outcast, Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, and Heliod, Sun-Crowned. The infinite mana isn't as big an emphasis these days, more of a pleasant surprise, and it feels bad to just keep getting combo pieces over and over that are super weak unless I can keep going.

Yeah, that's what I was suggesting. Do you struggle with the infect matchup that much? Is it worth making your matchups with other decks worse simply for one deck? I understand Melira, Sylvok Outcast's value, but I just thought infect wasn't that dominant in the meta, and that Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit was more useful in more matches. I also wouldn't think you struggle too much against infect without her, but I could be wrong. It was simply a suggestion based on those factors.

I think I just had nervous energy about the tournament tomorrow. The lands are actually coming up fine in playtesting. But, depending on how tomorrow goes, that is a super easy fix.

What did you mean then about Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, nbarry223? Replacing Melira, Sylvok Outcast with a second copy of her? Unfortunately, that's also crazy talk. Until Infect stops being an archetype, there's no reason for me not to play that combo piece that can also just get a handshake for just resolving her on the board.

The Overgrown Tomb for Godless Shrine swap is an interesting thought, not sure how I feel about it. Typically, everything has to be as green as possible, in order to be able to get off a consistent Chord of Calling as close to turn 3 as possible. But maybe you're right, and if the problem is too much green, that may be the perfect solution.

In regards to Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, I actually really like the backup aggro plan she provides, it was a really solid joint solution on both our parts. I don't think I want to lose that just for an easier mana cost.
