So I want to start by saying everything in my previous comment still stands, so I won't go over anything I already discussed there. That said, let's take a look at what you've changed.

The Good Show

These are good changes. Some of these are cards I myself use or would recommend for any Edgar Markov deck.

• Forerunner of the Legion
• Legion Lieutenant
• Mavren Fein, Dusk Apostle
• Skymarcher Aspirant
• Anguished Unmaking
• Boros Charm
• Mortify
• Path to Exile
• Swords to Plowshares
• Cover of Darkness
• Etchings of the Chosen
• Legion's Landing  ^Flip
• Vindicate

The Okay Show

This card is just alright. It is a 1/1 flyer for one, but the ability isn't super relevant. I've toyed with the idea of running it myself, but just find too many superior cards to run over it that it gets bumped out of the list.

• Duskborne Skymarcher

The Bad Show

In my opinion, these cards don't really belong in the deck. They lose you too much tempoe (in the case of the lands) and the two creatures don't really fit your deck's plan.

• Drana's Emissary
• Martyr of Dusk
• Looming Spires
• Mortuary Mire

SideBae Thanks so much for your very detailed notes. I was thinking of adding Drana's Emissary and Agent of Masks for some additional damage and time bombs. Bitterblossom looks like a fun add and seems like it could proove useful for blockers/attackers, triggers for soul sisters, and sac outlets if need be. Did you feel that theres a definite lack of counter spells withing the deck? With what I have in there, its becoming super hard to make cuts. I like having all the tutors in there, but maybe there are better things? Additionally, are Approach of the Second Sun and Test of Endurance other good wincons? Or just cheesy?

I pulled Vampire Envoy . Drana's Emissary is fine flyer with better static effect and the same CMC and I feel more sentimental about her :)

Put in a bit more Land, you should be running 22-24 land depending on how much your CMC is. As SynergyBuild says, you should definitely be running 4x Godless Shrine. Also, in two color decks, you shouldn't be running lotus field. Run Vampire Nighthawk instead of your Bloodthirsty Aerialist . Also, run 6 swamps and 3 plains instead of 3 swamps and 6 plains. Maybe throw in a few more swamps while you're at it. In my opinion, I wouldn't run any plains, just more swamps. You should get more dual lands that don't have to be tapped on their first turn. Also, your cards have a very high mana cost so I would throw in a few Bontu's Monument Also, your creature cards should work well together, but your's don't seem to work while together. I would get rid of Call to the Feast and replace it with some creature cards that can summon vampires, such as Bloodline Keeper  ^Flip or Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet , but if you run them, only run 1-3 as they are expensive. I would run fewer Champions of dusk,as they are expensive and you don't have much lifegain. Also, run 1 less Bolas's Citadel and maybe run some more lifegain, like Drana's Emissary , Rest for the Weary or Chaplain's Blessing

Hey Technowyvern!

You might want some cards such as Cordial Vampire , Kalastria Highborn , Sanctum Seeker , Mavren Fein, Dusk Apostle , Pawn of Ulamog (replacement for Sifter of Skulls , Legion Lieutenant , Stromkirk Captain , Drana's Emissary , Malakir Bloodwitch , Necropolis Regent , Cliffhaven Vampire (combine with lifelink for infinite damage + life), Rakish Heir , Indulgent Aristocrat , Bloodlord of Vaasgoth , and Defiant Bloodlord .

BTW What is the FNM EDH meta like at Cerberus? I'm about to complete my Angelhorde Invasion deck so anything that would help in the meta or a rough idea of some of the meta decks would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Good Luck,
