I played in that exact event. Well done, sir. +1

My own attempts at DtN decks have always included more board wiping and detain than yours has, and I've never had a Nicol to play. I'm interested in yours, really, especially the Diabolic Revelation s. I think that might help solve the issue I keep having, which is trying to figure out how to get to the cards I need. Then again, in mine I incorporated merciless evictions, to get rid even of my own artifacts if it meant preventing a door win condition, and staff of nin to get extra draw. And thank heaven for supreme verdict.

Hey awesome deck, only thing I'd say is that since you have a lot of basics, then maybe a few Farseek , because you have ample card search which is necesarry for the deck but you could get all the land you ever need in you hand but only be allowed to play one a turn. I actually plan on making deck like this heavily based off of yours just play with my friends and if i can play it well enough, take it to FNM. +1, good stuff.

unless your really good on mana..i wouldnt reccommend mind grind in your deck. but thats just me, it might get rid of a few good monsters/instants in opponents deck but iv used it on a really good player and it didnt make a difference.

I've seen another version of this that ran a playset Liliana of the Dark Realms , and had her grab all the shock lands that were half swamp. Popping her ultimate also made rakdos return a win con.

Vanguard's Shield might be a good addition since your rolling with defenders

I enjoy seeing DtN Builds. Good Job! I also use DtN in modern tournaments at my locals. Super consistent, and no one has really gotten over it. Check it out, if you want.
