Like your deck a lot- maybe try Boros Reckoner for more devotion.

How do you sideboard in against green/Red Monsters I find it's a tough deck to beat?

Kickass101, see above for the reasons why I don't run Boros Reckoner . I don't rely on having Mogis, God of Slaughter be a creature at all, since most of the time by that point I would already have the game in the bag.
cshobbykobby, I have not had enough testing against RG monsters yet to know for sure how my matchup against it is. Although, I did design my sideboard to have a good fighting chance against it.
+2 Doom Blade
+2 Revoke Existence (this hits Xenagos, God of Revels and Courser of Kruphix )
is what I would consider doing, but like I said I haven't practiced much sideboarding against it yet since I haven't had a chance to play against one.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly ye that looks like the right way to go this updated version looks like it may hand't green red a little better with the addition of Elspeth and chains. Its a sweet deck and I really like the Dega colors.

I guess you could definitelu use some draw mechanics here. Either Underworld Connections or Read the Bones , but it's also tough decision of how to find slots for these cards. Personally, I would cut out D-Demons for 2 Connections, but as I said, it's not an easy decision to make. Other option could be Sin Collector since you already have a huge disruption with Thoughtseize and Rakdos's Return .

DannyG, I have tried running a draw engine in my previous version and it turns out that I do not need one that badly, at least in this version anyway. It is very difficult to try to find a spot for even 1 or 2 of them (and if anything, the spot would go to Warleader's Helix first since that was the spell I was forced to cut when making this version). The only problems I've had with this deck is just having a more awkward openers than it should on average. Also, Desecration Demon has proven to be a powerhouse against many many matchups and have either won me games or stabilize me out of nowhere and he's probably here to stay.
Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to be able to fit one or two-of of some kind of draw engine in the list (I thought of Chandra, Pyromaster before cutting her for Stormbreath Dragon ), it's just that the list is too tight at the moment.
Thanks for the comment!

Y no Aurelia, the Warleader ? Cuz she is awesome!!! And look up my deck Borzhovakdos . Anyway, tell me what u think about my deck.

Because there are more reliable finishers in this deck than Aurelia. For 6 mana you have Elspeth, and for 5 there is Obzedat and Baron, and when one of this cards appears on field it pretty much spells the end of the game.

I've been following you profile/deck for a while, it's really inspiring. I always appreciate your detailed reports. You've definitely influenced me in how I've been building my own. If you get time, check out my version! Mythic Midrange (B/W/R) It has been highly successful in my area. Thanks!

You definitely need to splash green and blue to get Kruphix after JOU is realeased. Reason?

DannyG, my color already gives me access to other potential intruments.
My top candidate right now is Iroas, God of Cowbells. Why? Because we need more cowbell.

Cool deck! Mogis is pretty bad ass, and im glad to see it here. I made a budget rakdos aggro where if I wanted to put a few more bucks into I'd throw him at the top of the curve. His pressure is awesome.

I can't even imagine how scary this deck would be once Athreos comes out...

Good question! All of the decklists have just disappeared! Must be some server-related issue.

One thing I might add, I noticed you had Celestial Flare in your sideboard but you didn't mention it can kill opposing Blood Baron of Vizkopa , Stormbreath Dragon , or anything else with protection from white, as Celestial Flare targets the player and forces them to sack their creature (Especially if they attacked with a single threat) and they are targeting their own creature and sacking it, Celestial Flare doesn't actually target the creature.

I figured that was a well-known fact so I didn't mention it. It can in fact deal with all of the above threats, but it is mainly in there as a way to deal with hexproof strategies. However, they do come in against aggro and creature-based decks as well since it's still a removal. The card's worked wonders so far! Thanks for the comment!

I was just sharing in case you missed it, I know I did until my Stormbreath Dragon died unexpectedly to it! Anyway, great deck, you don't see these colors together often but it looks real nice.

Deicide is better than Revoke Existence in almost every situation. Unless your meta has a lot of Colossi of Akros, you probably should switch them out. Also, Banishing Light is great for dealing with noncreature permanents like Pithing Needle and Detention Sphere your removal can't hit.

Journey into Nyx hasn't come out yet so no changes will be made to this page until then. I already have a JOU-ready list ready to be tested.
