This is my latest tweaking of my FNM deck, the Orzhov Midrange. Previous evolutions can be found here:

The biggest change in my opinion is the removal of athreos and the return of the bestow creatures.

Bringing out big threats every turn to create an imposing board presence while demolishing your opponents board with spot removal and forced sacrifice. There are plenty of ways to gain life to either help stabilize from a bad situation or just increase your lead. Pump up creatures they can't block with bestow, or play them as creatures to swarm them with more than they can handle.

Continued testing — Aug. 7, 2014

High Priest of Penance has tested well in the deck so I decided to go ahead and take out Spiteful Returned in favor of finishing the playset of priests. I've been thinking for awhile now that spiteful is more of a win more card in this deck rather than something that actually helps you get to that point, whereas priest can be a huge stall in the early game and a big turn around in the late game. Not to mention this brings my total enchantment count (including enchantment creatures) down to just 8, which is good, considering stuff like Back to Nature is a thing now. Also, im considering taking out 1 Blood Baron of Vizkopa to sideboard and testing out a Soul of Theros

-2 Spiteful Returned

+2 High Priest of Penance
