I definitely wasn't saying remove the knight of infamy, just add knight of glory along with it.

if you have 2+ Falkenrath Aristocrat s out simultaneously. would all of them get the +1/+1 counter from sacing one human?

Azorius Arrester , Cathedral Sanctifier ,

Disciple of Griselbrand (only if my assumption that sacing can trigger both effects of two different cards, which I think might not be the case haha),

DEFINITELY put Gather the Townsfolk back in,

Loyal Cathar  Flip because it comes back,

Mikaeus, the Lunarch is a great turn 2-3. Give it 1-2 +1/+1, then cast your Falkenrath Aristocrat turn four, and tap Mikaeus, the Lunarch to give the aristocrat a +1/+1 before saving the human :D,

Nearheath Pilgrim sac all but him, sac him next turn for the kill :D,

Rix Maadi Guildmage for mana dumping if they hold you off for a bit.

Vizkopa Guildmage both abilities activated is pretty much a one swing kill. each ability by itself is awesome too.

Thrill-Kill Assassin because death touch is awesome.

Dreno33 no the sacs don't work that way. It's an ability tied to THAT creature and ONLY affects the one. The sacrificing is a cost denoted by (cost):

AWESAMTHEGREAT The problem with Sorin is he is a 4 drop. on turn four i want to drop Falkenrath Aristocrat not a Planeswalker. Ill put him in the maybeboard

I didn't take the time to read through all the comments so I'm sorry if this has been said before but why not Cavern of Souls ? You run only two different creature types, vampire and humans, so its mana fixing and it makes control players cry and can prevent them from solidifying the game.

Sorry ignore my comment. I'm an idiot and apparently i can't read today. +1

yes i know its a 4 drop but Elspeth, Knight-Errant pumps out humans, not vampires like AWESAMTHEGREAT suggested with sorin.

i think it would be a fantastic turn 5+ move. and plus, just having a planeswalker on the field at all can make people cringe and worry. especially when yours synergizes so damn well.

so this is how I would see it going. Elspeth, Knight-Errant turn 5 with your falken already out, Instant human 1/1 token. Sac it to falken. Their turn, they attack Elspeth, Knight-Errant instead of you, sac one of your other humans you have already played to block without fear with your falken. next turn, SAME DAMN THING. Then eventually use its -8 to give indestructibility forever :D that is, if you haven't won yet.

consider, that's all.

And thats all good but Elspeth, Knight-Errant isnt Standard Legal. This is a FNM deck which should mean its standard and in fact all the cards in the deck are standard. But good idea for a modern deck around this idea.

Dreno33 says... #15

do you realize how many comments i make and forget to check the legality of the deck? every one. lmao. sorry

Snatcharelli says... #16

Plus it pumps soldiers not humans.

akivain Im curious if you feel the changes that have been made are beneficial and fix the issues you talked about several days ago

I'm confused if you're trying to run Aristocrats without the white or a competitive deck just wanting to use Falkenrath Aristocrat , if you don't want the white you can just go br zombies or brw zombies for recasting/sacing Gravecrawler and Geralf's Messenger , they're far better without the white. But if you're trying to make it more competitive, the white/double white human cards are pretty much a must. I ran a mock version of Aristocrats this past FNM in a 62player pod, using zombies in place of humans and went 4-1 only losing to a Oros Midrange deck, placing 9th overall. Human Aristocrats are FAR stronger and use the heavy white cards like Silverblade Paladin .

What do you do about things like Illness in the Ranks ?

April 8, 2013 6:12 p.m.

Sainted says... #21

Slaughter Games Dakeefers and to be honest I have really almost never seen that card run

Dreno33 says... #22

whenever you play this deck casually, you should throw in a Cauldron of Souls to really piss people off

ApocryphalSaint: The deck has evolved much since I've last seen it. The manabase seems much more consistent and the lack of relience on colored mana seems good.

Thatcher Revolt and Gather the Townsfolk seem like an excellent innovation. I'd like to know well they worked.

Hey man, I just want to thank you again for your comments. I too along with Behgz am in PDX by the by. Anyway, I like this deck list dude (and the name). Obviously this is similar to the aristocrat top 8 archetype, but there are so many fun an interesting rogue brew elements here that I really dig it. I totez respect the mainboard Slaughter Games . Most insist it should be relegated to the SB, but I can definitely see how this would work if you're very familiar with y(our) local metta. How have you fared at tourney? I took a cookie cutter B/R zombies deck to a Saturday tourney at Portal (time vault) once, and went 2-2. I definitely subbed in Slaughter Games every single game 2. Haha. All in all, +1.

PrinceOfNeurosis This deck was pretty rape. It was faster than anything my friends were playing with at the time, and that Slaughter games main board was VERY effective. Having cards like that in main board is something I think more people need to do. ITS SO COMMON to run into a net deck or something that is a copy and paste of the popular decks in the national meta. So its easy I see somone drop a Geist in a Game I will slaughter games that Sphinx's Revelation before i even see one because I know that if they've got a giest they are more than likely gonna have the copy paste cards that are run with it Whihc can give you Game 1 wins. However I think Aggro Decks are super boring so this was dismantled and used for parts lol.
