Took this deck to FNM and decided to try it out. Went 3-2 and was extremely happy with how the deck played overall. The matches I lost were mainly just due to mana flooding.

Round 1: Went against a R/B aggro deck. I took quite a bit of damage in the first round but was able to stall with my removal and then drop Obzedat, which he had no answer for. The second round gave me a lucky Fiendslayer Paladin in my opening hand and I easily took that game. Result: 2-0

Round 2: Went against a G/W deck running the classics like Fleecemane Lion, Loxodon Smiter, elspeth, experiment one, blah blah. First game I took pretty easily because I got Blood Baron out and he couldn't answer it. Second game I lost because of mana flooding. I lost the third game because of mana flooding again, and right when I dropped Obzedat, he used Selesnya Charm to exile it. Result: 1-2

Round 3: Went against a Dimir Mill deck that tried to kill me by making me draw cards (used some black creature that made me lose a life everytime I drew). Could have been dangerous but the player wasn't that great, so I won both games with no problems. Result: 2-0

Round 4: Went against another Orzhov midrange, although he was using Godsend. First game I got mana flooded, and I lost quick. Second game, he got mana flooded, and I won quick. Third game was a bit more interesting. I got a clutch Brain Maggot off early to take his Elspeth, and he ended up attaching a Godsend to a Nyx-Fleece Ram, which actually stalled me for a while. Once I had about 5-6 creatures on the board, I just started swinging, and eventually beat him down before all my creatures were exiled. Result: 2-1

Round 5: Went against a Boros Aggro deck. I got some extremely unlucky draws in this game. First round I drew into 2 Whip of Erebos and 2 Read the Bones, which were all dead cards that round. Second round I used Devour Flesh twice to stay alive on my own Desecration Demon, but still lost because I didnt draw into any creatures. Result: 0-2
