Fade into Antiquity deals with Erebos too, even if he isn't a critter yet.

I'll tinker with this a bit and see what I can do.

This seems interesting. Dropped Nylea as my green devotion isn't that great. Should be plenty of white devotion now though to activate Heliod when he comes out. I don't like seeing a LATE Gladecover Scout , but I really need one in the opener as I'm really short on hexproof and that's kind of important in this deck. I have plenty of ways to make the 1/1 big and bad.

Also just a note to MadDreams, Bow of Nylea only gives deathtouch when you attack, so it's kind of bad since I'm not focusing on green devotion.

Bow of Nylea does only give attacking creatures deathtouch, but when combining deathtouch with trample, you maximize the damage output of your creatures. It's entirely up to you though. I really wish they'd make a duplicate of Abundant Growth again :c

What do you guys think of Heliod, God of the Sun in this? He's an auto-boost to Ethereal Armor , grants vigilance, and pops out enchantment creatures with my extra mana which ALSO boost Ethereal Armor . If he's a creature himself that's just gravy.

Good, yeah?

Oh and the sideboard needs serious help. I just don't know what to do with that.

Angry_Potatoes - yeah, I've been tinkering with him, but he's kind of high on the curve and I'm not sure what I'd pull for him. I'd never want to play him as anything other than an aura since he's not hexproof.

Also, pre-emptively saying that I've already tried Hero of Iroas and he doesn't work in here as he requires Alpha Authority to survive in this meta and that's just too difficult to depend on.

You could splash blue so you could play Ascended Lawmage , Aqueous Form , Ordeal of Thassa and even Thassa, God of the Sea herself if you can afford the copies. Judging by the playset of Voice of Resurgence though, I assume you can! XP

As for the sideboard, you can straight up swap the Fade into Antiquity s for Revoke Existence for starters. Pithing Needle is great against any deck that has excessive planeswalkers. Savage Summoning helps against control. Now, if you decide to splash blue (as I suggest you do), that opens up Azorius Charm and Detention Sphere (the sphere even powers up Ethereal Armor )

Hmmm not sure bant is a direction I want to go with this. If I splash it's probably going to be red for Boros Charm , Chained to the Rocks and Madcap Skills .

Revoke Existence is a no-brainer and I don't know why I didn't spot that before - thanks =)
