Debating on changing the commander to Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim. Tell me what you think.

I think Karlov of the Ghost Council is actually the real powerhouse. Your deck is already built for him.

That's actually who I've been looking at. A lot of people have been pointing me in his direction.

I don't get why Solemnity is in this deck. Won't that basically disable everything that's cool about Karlov? I'd add Angelic Accord to replace it. Also, I'd consider Erebos, God of the Dead, Athreos, God of Passage andToxic Deluge.

I added Solemnity into the deck to combo with Celestial Convergence It doesn't remove the counters from Karlov if he has any when it ETBs. Plus it shuts down other people's decks more than it would this one. I wouldn't play Solemnity unless I knew I had Celestial Convergence. If you play Solemnity then Celestial Convergence it'll enter with zero counters, instantly winning you the game.

I had Angelic Accord in the deck before I made the major update to it. It was removed because it honestly never helped me much. The deck isn't focused around creatures like that, so I figured removing it for a card like Path to Exile would be more beneficial.

Erebos and Athreos both don't fit well in the deck in my opinion as well. I love Athreos, but I felt like there were better choices so he was never put into the deck in the final product. Erebos doesn't do me any good because ideally I'll win by Test of Endurance, Felidar Sovereign, Celestial Convergence, or the Exquisite Blood x Sanguine Bond combo. Usually the only time I win by reducing opponents to zero life is when they've all been hitting each other and ignoring me. Then I just swoop in with a hefty Debt to the Deathless or Exsanguinate. Then it's game over, so his "Opponents can't gain life" doesn't do much for me.

I also thought about putting Toxic Deluge into the deck, but when the final touches were being put onto it I decided one more board wipe wouldn't do me much good. Plus I couldn't afford the cut. I liked how the deck was shaping up, and Toxic Deluge just didn't seem to fit in that final image. Plus I'm greedy and like keeping all my life haha.

I really appreciate the feed back though! Thank you :) I love getting comments and discussing decks and strategies.

The deck looks pretty fun and honestly probably annoying to play against. I looked through and it seems you are lacking a little in ways to remove enchantments/artifacts especially the former being an issue. Sulfuric Vortex Havoc Festival Leyline of Punishment Erebos, God of the Dead and Tainted Remedy could all be problematic especially since they all could be in the same deck. Solemn Offering seems like it would be on theme, and there are so many other options in white. I dont really have suggestions on what to take out to make room, but if you could free up 2 or 3 slots it might be worthwhile.

Thanks for the compliment haha. I use actually use Mortify, Vindicate, and Austere Command to get rid of enchantments and artifacts. Path to Exile, Swords to Plowshares, Fumigate, and Black Sun's Zenith takes care of indestructible creatures along with normal ones. Using Karlov of the Ghost Council as the general definitely doens't hurt anything either haha.
