Please leave your suggestions down here. I'm on a budget so I can't get cards like Thoughtseize, Hero's Downfall, or Tasigur, the Golden Fang.

Love the way it plays out. I'm a little new to building decks, but you should try adding a Thoughtseize, Hero's Downfall, or Tasigur, the Golden Fang. But really man, you might want a Whip of Erebos or two in the sideboard for life gain. Relatively speaking, they're not that expensive. :3

Thanks for the suggestions. I would love all of those cards in this build, but I can't afford them. I'll try to get them via trade. I could probably afford a whip though :)

I was joking about the first few cards. Kind of just put them in there for the sake of being an asshole (Hense the "But really man"). _

I would say get rid of the white and go Sultai, put some Hero's Downfall in instead of the Utter End and put some counter spells in like Dissolve. Or, you could keep the white and out some Gods Willing in for the protection and it also gives you a scry. I would suggest the Gods Willing because it is more versatile, and you could work out blue into your sideboard to get yourself a more of a control aspect when you need it. +1 from me!

Thanks for the advice! I think I'm staying in white just because I'm personally not a fan of counter magic, but I really like the idea of Gods Willing.

Yea, I saw another deck like that with the same problem and put the protection in and it worked out very well.

Currently your adding another colour just for Utter End which isnt even that great, you can already replace End Hostilities With Crux of Fate. So you can help the consistency of the deck out by going 2 colour. I'd replace these with some Courser of Kruphix to smooth out your draws and win against aggro and add Sylvan Caryatid to let your draws be more explosive.

I like the idea of Ob Nixilis, Unshackled but how does it play in reality? You don't have a mechanism to make them search and by the time you drop him at 6 cmc would anyone even need to fetch? Besides that you are looking at Liliana Vess and Chord of Calling hate. The rest of the minor options in standard would have triggered by turn 6 or would just be ignored. As far as other base value as a creature he is a 4/4 flier for 6 that can get bigger. There seem to be much more efficient options. Master of the Feast and Herald of Torment play 3 turns earlier despite their drawbacks. Even Wingmate Roc seems like it would get the nod.
