But Parallel Lives is why there's green to be honest.I will keep your idea in mind I'm gonna try to play it this Friday so hopefully it goes good.

Yeah...but Green also provides you with a lot of ramp, so Avacyn's Pilgrim and Birds of Paradise can fit too if you get mana-screwed. The issue I've always had with this deck is the absolute bottle-neck it is at three (I play a similar build), so you have to be careful with your curve on account of this.

Thats true, I'l play it this Friday and edit it to how I think it will benifit. Who knows might take the whole thing lol.

IDK about Skirsdag High Priest. Seems that you can't really trigger it, and you will be relying on your opponents to help you trigger it.

That is also true but it can benifit me early game, there less likely to attack if I can get out a 5/5 but I will see might swap it out for something better.

I'm still a magic newb, but do you think you have the green covered for 3 green on garruck? Your birds can be removed and you will have to get out 3 green mana for him.7 non creature plus 4 creature seems thin since birds get shot down a lot.

You have a point might swap out Garruk, Primal Hunter for Sorin, Lord of Innistrad or another Elspeth Tirel.

I'm also running a token deck (B/W) and i really like where this is going. If i were you, i would probably take out the Grave Titans for two reasons 1) your primarily not playing black in the deck 2) pulling 2 blacks does not really happen all the time or unfortunately often enough with your mana base. I'd then also take out the Geist-Honored Monk b/c although it is pretty awesome it is worth 5 and i've found that the faster this kinda deck is the better. By doing so, you can pop in a 4th Intangible Virtue and possibly put in 3x Honor of the Pure which boosts all your tokens minus the ones from Sorin. This is still a pretty awesome deck so im gonna +1

Why no Lingering Souls? I feel that you'd get more out of it than Gather the Townsfolk. Especially if you get Parallel Lives out.

Well, nevermind. Didn't see it under Sorcery. Nevermind my last comment!

Just a minor note but I think if you took out one Vault of the Archangel and went up to 4 Razorverge Thickets with only a 1 of in Sunpetal Grove it might smooth out your mana curve a bit more. Maybe even dropping the Sunpetal Grove for an additional Plains or Forest.

Maybe take out 1 Elspeth Tirel for 1 Sigarda, Host of Herons? she seems like a really good card to have access to.

I'm not sure Bloodline Keeper Flip fits well in this deck, do you have enough vampires to make it flip? I would consider in this deck Skirsdag High Priest , card:Altar's Reap, Gather the Townsfolk and Tragic Slip (over Murder ), Geist-Honored Monk and maybe Thraben Doomsayer .

You really don't need that many parallel lives. What I found is adding cards like are more effective if not just game-enders.
