Sharuum has the colors, but I like Arcum better because you can get what you want when you need with his fetch. And its not like blue has no control cards or answers.
I'm just wondering why sydri is your general, i feel like she does absolutely nothing for you. Wouldn't Oloro ,Ageless Ascetic or Sen Triplets be better suited for you?
Has anyone ever considered playing the deck with smallpox. Combined with Nykthos, its ok the sac the land, then bloodghast and geralf's messenger are even more effective.
I play it, and i must say that's it fun to play and effective
I've found Mox Opal to be a better choice, since you can't imprint artifacts on Chrome Mox. But it depends on your build, most shruum lists run quite it's share of artifacts.
Exactly.
I run mox opal in my sydri deck but i dont run Chrome mox because of the exile card, which also makes it a bad top deck option.
Thx guys! I will definately try Myojin of Night's Reach, this card looks unpleasant for opponents while giving us a huge advantage. I will also try out Necrologia!
Appart from that you have a pretty solide list, i would find a way to add more draw/card advantage to the deck like Greed, phyrexian arena and necropotence. Life is not really an issue with Sydri's lifelink.
I agree with your point of view on erebos now that i think of it!
Crypt Ghast it also has a slight issue for me that I run all of the pestilence effects so it could be hard to do much with it since he might just get blown out himself by me trying to generate mana. I am offhand not running cabal coffers because I had had some issues with getting it too often in the early game where I couldn't use it but its likely that I just need to go back to using coffers. I did add wayfarer since the last time I ran it I think...[/QUOTE]
I got to play pestilence in one game, and pestilence demon in another and they are so powerful in this deck. Are they cards you tutor for or you usually go for exsanguinate and debt to the deathless?

Greed also gets the job done.
And Karn, Silver Golem + Liquimetal Coating

Volrath's Stronghold
Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
Opal Palace Underlooked cheap card..especially with a lifelink general like griselbrand !!
Ancient Tomb Good mana accell
Vault of the Archangel is not in the Griselbrand color but still a good utility land to have in any deck that can support it
