Silverblade Paladin . Pair with Falkenrath Aristocrat when it enters, swing for 4 double strike, sac humans and make bigger ;) Also Skirsdag High Priest for bumping Champion of the Parish up and on command Morbid for demons. Also think about a creature stealing card at least in sideboard that you can steal stupid crap like Olivia Voldaren /Thragtusk and feed an Aristocrat after combat, such as Zealous Conscripts (also human food), Act of Treason , Mark of Mutiny , Traitorous Blood (double red though a little rough), and Traitorous Instinct . Think about a Vault of the Archangel or two as well for late game recovery.

Hail To The Darkside (Aristocrats) is what I'm working with right now, will be getting more Sacred Foundry , Champion of the Parish , Silverblade Paladin , and Boros Charm for the deck though.

Already have the Creatures stealersin sideboard where they should be :). Silverblade Paladin used to be in here but i took him out when there wasnt a s much white. However now he might be able to fit. Idk ill think on it.

I must have missed that when I looked at your sideboard. I personally like them main just in case. Playtested a lot of games with Aristocrats vs Bant Zegana midrange and Naya Blitz and when Silverblade Paladin hit the field it was a massive threat or won the game by himself. It got silly to the point of 2 Knight of Infamy , Doomed Traveler , Cartel Aristocrat , Silverblade Paladin , and hit a Falkenrath Aristocrat , paired and swung alone. 7/3 Double Strike after Exalted procs go off, sac all humans except Paladin, went up to a 11/8 double strike and won that game.

Also Cavern of Souls come to think of it if you can get them was useful as hell when I did hit that Falkenrath, Midrange couldn't counter it and took it all to the face.

Defiantly worth getting a-hold of them. Sorry for ranting on your deck, been messing with Aristocrats in several versions and it's too much fun instant sac'n everything for tricks lol.

it probably has no place in here, but the reckoner + nearheath pilgrim + vizkopa guildmage combo would be fun as a potential win condition.

Its a nasty combo for sure but yes it has no place here. ty for the suggestion though! Nearhearth might find a spot But i don't think so. to be honest if this could still be good without White i would take white out.

Is Cartel Aristocrat still synergizing with this deck after taking out blood artist?

Champion of the Parish seems out of place other than the fact it's a one drop. There's nothing really benefiting you if it dies or you have to sac it to FalkenPunch. If only I could think of a way to move it's counters that follows the color theme.

teslamon thinking about dropping Champion of the Parish for Stonewright that ability soul bonded to Falkenrath Aristocrat then sac the creature after I've pumped her if i need too.

harrydemon117 says... #14

instead of Champion of the Parish , why not run Doomed Traveler ? Gives you something if you sac it, and still costs the same as Champion

Nevemrind, just saw you had that in there already lol

April 3, 2013 3:17 p.m.

teslamon says... #16

Stonewright is definitely a good idea

teslamon says... #17

if there was any way to add one green mana, you could use Kessig Wolf Run

Tragic Slip over Brimstone Volley ? and Cartel Aristocrat over High Priest of Penance ? I know Tragic Slip is in your sideboard but it seems to be better mainboard vs Boros Reckoner /Boros Charm /Falkenrath Aristocrat /Mayor of Avabruck  Flip and other Blitz cards, lower CMC. Cartel Aristocrat for alternate sac engine and huge threat to deal with come to find out, she never dies.

Nice man, I run a similar deck. +1 for being a fellow Portlandian!

you know what really grinds my gears? It's when you try to look at any dam FLIP creature like Instigator Gang  Flip .

Dam you, teslamon, i still haven't read what the flip says, and now I dont care.

My rant's done. Anyways, love the name. Hence why I clicked it.

Blood Artist ? it would be funny to drop their life and increase yours every time you sac to increase her power, lol.

+1 for the name alone. have you considered adding/ re-adding champion? now that your whole critter base is humans he could be a massive threat. Even playing a t1 to draw removal might help your later game

Sainted says... #22

franzferdan yes Champion is a good card however for what the deck is supposed to do its ability doesn't really mean much. Blood Artist despite being a Vampire fills the roll of pure aggro and sac better than Champion did. Since the champion would end up getting sacced by turn 5

I think the Kessig Malcontents is a weak-link here. Maybe Knight of Glory would be better? It's another human trigger with Exalted (a REALLY sweet mechanic for the aristocrat). Also, I might consider the Gore-House Chainwalker and the Rakdos Shred-Freak as reliable human two-drops

Spinalripper says... #24

Knight of Infamy > Knight of Glory usually, depends on your meta but most aggro decks run white aggro creatures over black, better blocker.
