FNM Standard —Aug. 9, 2013
Record 3-2
Round 1: Jund Midrange 1-2
First game was perfect, well timed Brave the Elements, mixed with a Thalia, Guardian of Thraben lock helped a lot. The 2nd and 3rd game I had him against the ropes and he beat me with 3 miracle Bonfire of the Damned one game and another there were 3 vampire nighthawks that just beat me down. 3rd game I got locked out by a Curse of Death's Hold.
Round 2: Dimir Milling Zombies 2-0
Perfect hands Champion of the Parish - Thalia, Guardian of Thraben - Silverblade Paladin- Sublime Archangel, means perfect games.
Round 3: WB Humans 2-1
This game was fun, it became a game of race and catch up if you are loosing. Fiendslayer Paladin teamed up with Sublime Archangel allowed me to catch up each turn and just keep gaining life every turn while he had to tap out just match it.
Round 4: Jund Zombies 1-2
This first game I won easily with dual Champion of the Parish, dual Knight of Glory, Silverblade Paladin, and Sublime Archangel. 2nd game I got cocky and kept a one land hand with 2 Champion of the Parish and 1 Brave the Elements to keep me going, ended up not drawing a land for 4 turns. Third game I lost to a 7/6 Lotleth Troll and got locked out by 2 Lifebane Zombies.
Round 5: Jund Midrange 2-0
This was a blow out, I eventually beat him when he had 2 Thragtusks out, and I was chipping him with a Spirit token that was soulbound to Silverblade Paladin and a Knight of Glory, 4 damage from a spirit every turn was a cool way to win!

Riders of Gavony might also be stronger than Sublime Archangel , you'll be attacking with many creatures more often than just one and you might want to try out Path of Bravery

@Demarge: I definitely preferred Riders of Gavony over Sublime Archangel after testing, only problem is that I'm not sure if they are a solid 4 of in the main. Also I considered Banisher Priest , but Fiend Hunter is in for the removal, and I would prefer to have him not be as easily killed by removal spells.

I think with such a low curve, you should cut 4 Plains and put in 4 Elite Inquisitor s.

Banisher Priest dies to shock and pillar of flame and thats a thing so I think Field Hunter is a solid choice. Personally I would take Inquisitor over Captain as a white white two drop. Vigilance to attack and block is very nice for such a deck and I don't see the use of Gideon in the sideboard. His ability is one that is only good when you are winning so it's really just a win more condition so I would stick with something that would ruin your game like board wipe like say Faiths reward although I have heard it's too slow so you will have to run some test first. Also Beckon Apparition is not as effective as Rest in piece. So I would go 2x Rest in piece if you want effective control of the graveyard state.

Thraben Doomsayer is just not as good as other white three drops, even though his fateful hour is awesome.

No, but he works so well with Champion of the Parish , and will make trump blockers

I would take him over the Sublime Archangel most times, with only one way of getting damage through, having no trample

splashing green for Mayor of Avabruck Flip is worth it.

i made a build very similar to this i did Elite Inquisitor and nearhalth pilgrilm and also over doomed traveler id do Boros elite more aggro. i also did 3 rootbourne defense in main and switch fiend hunter for Frontline medic if your dudes are indestructible no need for removal

Banisher Priest would likely work better than Fiend Hunter for this deck, it's more built for offense.
