This is my Mogis deck I have been working on for over 2 years and have been cleaning it up and optimizing this deck. Some constructive criticism, advice, and suggestions are wholly welcome!

Changes to the deck are already in progress (it's a matter of finding the card(s)):

-replace vona's hunger for withering boon as mogis needs a surprise like withering boon and power and vona's hunger after enough playtesting showed that it's very lack luster and only truly benefits one card in the deck and will be replaced ASAP

-replace apprentice necromancer with xiahou dun, the one eyed. This card is an amazing replacement for apprentice necromancer

-Eventually replace Rocky Tar Pit for a better fetch land and improve the dual lands in general

-Also considering for a replacement for sword of the animist as I feel it's not necessarily needed

Combos may include but are not limited to: It that betrays + any form of forcing opponents to sac i.e mogis, grave pact, etc... phyresis + mogis when mogis is a creature to turn into an infect win or whip of erebos and mogis to gain life sheoldred and mogis to force sacs and/or life loss exquisite bond + sanguine blood + mogis for a win or any damage dealers Xiahou Dun, the One Eyed + Dawn of the Dead or any reanimate spells for full value and the best recursion this deck has to offer

This deck likes to do many things to fit many different play styles from what i've seen, it appeals to the aggro player and can play very aggro, the deck can appeal to the control player a lot, if you want to sit back and kind of durdle then do some serious damage through taxes, mogis will accomplish that, If you can play a good politic game, this deck will destroy, the deck offers plenty of answers, large tool box utility with plenty of benefit of sacrificing your own creatures with enough set up. This deck shines in group games and comes out of nowhere when left untouched, and can hold its own with the right cards (I have really bad luck and get terrible draws i.e mana flooded or mana screwed consistently on any deck I play :P), however this deck won me a tournament on turn 4 by getting It that betrays out with an apprentice necromancer and missing a land drop just to discard it that betrays opening hand. It was a pretty nut hand... This is also my first commander deck I have ever built when I first started playing and I enjoy it and love it so much I have been trying to foil it out :P
