I built this deck to fight a lot of the metagame right now. I built it to have a fast start and hard finish. I used to run this as a control style deck but I took out a few cards and added some more fast start cards.
There is also a lot of synergy in this deck with the lifegain and the tokens.
Creatures:
Soldier of the Pantheon - I feel like this card is one of the best 1 drops I'm standard. There are a lot of multicolored decks going around right now and this shuts them down a lot.
Precinct Captain - This is my 2 drop of choice. It this card isn't responded to quickly it can get very out of hand. Especially in the control matchups.
Brimaz, King of Oreskos - This guy is a machine. The tokens he creates are ridiculous too. The kitty god could not be better.
Athreos, God of Passage - A 3 drop god with a bring back to hand effect? I'll take it. He is amazing with this deck.
Desecration Demon - A 6/6 flyer? Can you just say yes?
Archangel of Thune - A flyer with lifelink that makes cards bigger? This card is great at making little things big problems.
Obzedat, Ghost Council - He is one of the best 1 ofs to have in a black/white deck. He can create a game loss time clock.
Blood Baron of Vizkopa - There is a lot of black and white in our current metagame and I think that this definitely gets the job done at shutting those colors down.
Spells
Thoughtseize - Hand destruction is always bad for a player. Losing a card from an opening hand makes a good thing become very bad.
Ultimate Price - Just your common removal spell.
Devour Flesh - Just a little more removal.
Banishing Light - More removal but can also get rid of gods.
Hero's Downfall - The most powerful removal spell out there right now.
Elspeth, Sun's Champion - the most powerful planeswalkers in standard right now in my opinion.
Sideboard
Deicide - The god killer card! This is great for a mono-blue matchup. If you kill thassa that can ruin their game.
Nyx-Fleece Ram - This is here primarily for the burn decks. This card can make a difference in this matchups.
Bile Blight - This is here for token decks or decks that really on multiple copies of the same card.
Duress - Basically only for the control matchup.
Lifebane Zombie - This is here for control, green or white matchups. It can get rid of a Kalonian Hydra or a Polukranos, World Eater. It also warns you about a control deck's cards.
Underworld Connections - This is good for control games or longer games.
Whip of Erebos - This can be played in burn matchups and long games to utilize life better.
Blood Baron of Vizkopa - Another copy for mono black or a mirror matchup.
Obzedat, Ghost Council - Another copy of this for the control matches because it's hard to get rid of.
This is the deck I have come up with but I could use a lot of help. Any form of help or criticism will help so much.
