Happy Thanksgiving MTG Players, we apologize for being absent for a bit. We have had tons going on here at MTG The Journey, and it's just been crazy.
We did get to play this last week at FNM, and our Mono-Black Devotion went 3-2 this week, losing to a Mono-Red speed deck, and an Esper Control deck. So, we are going to be trying some new decks here in the coming weeks, the Golgari Dredge, Nighthowler deck will be one we want to start tweaking, as we think Golgari has tons of potential moving forward in this block, and we also want to play Orzhov, as we see tons of potential in those decks as well. We are in the midst of brewing a lot of decks right now, but here is another one we have brewed, and it's got some great looks.

Still working on a solid side-board right now, and will be play testing this a ton moving forward, so expect it to change moving forward. We would love your input though on the sideboard, or versions of this that you might run.
The base premise of the play is to build up enchantments for Ethereal Armor, and to drop a Gift of Immortality on a High Priest of Penance, Gray Merchant of Asphodel, or Nightveil Specter to keep doing the most damage possible. Meanwhile, your Obzedat and Desecration Demon can wreak havoc with Erebos holding down the house.
Let us know what you think! And don't forget to check out MTG Madness for your Christmas Gift needs this Holiday Season!! That 20% off could come in very handy!!
