When I saw the card for Shadowborn Apostle I knew I had to build a deck around it, so here it is. Generally if the are no threats to respond to you should search for Runescarred Demon or Razeketh when you sac the apostles, and then with the search that gives you you should get thrumming stone. After that you’ve basically won. The same feat can be accomplished with the commander but at a slower rate.
