This is the best possibly suicide black there can be in the new standard. You have to splash white. Reasons:

1) Athreos, God of Passage shouldnt need to explain.

2) Sorin, Solemn Visitor the life we lose we now gain back or make even more guys.

3) thats more than enough right there but then I think End Hostilies is to good to not try sideboard. They have big creatures I can't get through I have Athreos, God of Passage out and a nice amount of creatures out. Then drop End Hostilities clearing everything and either getting my creatures back or they lose some good amount of life.... seems good.

In the end white just gives that little push I think suicide black needs in the middle of a match. Against the new meta of midrange decks. Especially when your deck isnt cooperating to end it before they can stabilize.

So yesterday I competed in a top 16 tournament of players in town. These players are really really good I just consider myself a dark horse I could be good if I play all the time but I just do not have the time. Anyway to how it went. I played 5 rounds with this deck and I went 2-3. I found that any mono colored aggro deck must fire on all cylinders to win. Especially this suicide type of deck. I just fizzled out to fast against a meta full of midrange decks. So in conclusion because I also watched a rabble red deck get destroyed actually, it actually did worse than my deck. I figure a splash is definitely needed. So I will now start on working with a white splash.

Also the tourney was swiss then cut to top 8. Which I made the cut and then I took 7th. I lost my first match in top 8 against the eventual winner of the whole thing.
