Beauseph04 how did you "play test" it persay? Was it online?I've playtested it vs printed proxies of the top net decks. But I can't find a smooth place online to test anything, maybe it's just my computer or internet though.

I use the playtest feature on tappedout and use two different windows to play the different decks on. I play both decks to the best of my ability without bias. I played this against Gerry Thompson's deck that won the pro tour and this deck destroys it every time.

Hi Foutch16, thx for this amazing deck, i went first in a showdown event at my local gamestore here in France ! It was my first Time playing with the deck and i went 4-0. I just change it a little: I cuted 1 essence scatter for 1 bless the alliance in main.And 2 sphinx, 1 to the slaugther and 1 dusk//Dawn for 2 collected brutality and 2 forsake the worldly in the sideboard. Most of the Time i won by ultimating Liliane it was very interesting to play the deck. Oh and i cuted 1 evolving Wild to reduce the deck at 61 cards. The combo expertise + Liliana is very strong and went you locked the game and have a Liliana on the Board you won Most of the Time ! However i felt Like everything Will depend of what land you are searching with evolving Wild in the early game and how you play your land .

Uracke Yes land can be a bit tricky in the beginning, you gotta play it smart

But I'm glad you like the deck, and I'm happy it performed like it should for you. I like a few of the changes you made to your versions sideboard.

Hey tested this deck out today at Standard Showdown.

Went 2-2.

-2 Liliana because I'm poor and no shops have any.-1 Essence Scatter-1 Land+1 Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet+1 Pull from Tomorrow

Deck performed well except I lost to zombies( who I thought I would crush) because of bad draws. Opening hand 3 land but didn't draw land for 8 turns. 2nd game had the Wrath but not the right mana combination. Depressing stuff.

Second game I lost to a boros aggro deck using hasty things and surging off reckless bushwhacker. Couldn't get my Liliana ult off because of haste and his authority of the consuls made it so my gearhulks entered tapped.

Swept BG Counters and Sultai Control 2-0 each.

I like the deck, considering shelling out 60-70 for 2 more lilianas. Upvoted.

Plazbo yes unfortunately the deck is weak to decks that run a lot of haste creatures. It can handle a couple Glorybringers with cast out and essence scatter, but yeah if most of there stuff has haste it's pretty tough. You should have crushed zombies though. Sorry about the bad draws

Just edit you sideboard for your local meta, maybe add some Fragmentize and some Grasp of Darkness or Immolating Glares
