Orzhov Human Control

This is designed to be a very flexible deck, with sideboard options for all the popular decks. In the main board, I've got protection from board wipes with Athreos and Xathrid Necromancer, protection from D-Spheres with Banishing Light, Deicide(you'd be surprised how much this hits with the Theros block being enchantment heavy), and even some card draw with Underworld Connections.

Sideboard options:

Against Black: Sideboard in Fiendslayer Paladin and Dark Betrayal, taking out a combination of Hero's Downfall and Soldier of the Pantheon.

Against Control: Sideboard in Sin Collector, Deicide, and if UWx Glare of Heresy, while taking out Underworld Coinsmith and Imposing Sovereign.

Against RDW/Red Burn: Sideboard in Fiendslayer Paladin and Doom Blade, taking out Hero's Downfall and Deicide

Against RG Monsters/G Big Monsters: Sideboard in Doom Blade, taking out Underworld Connections.
