Currently I've been having a lot of success with spellskite as a 2 of in the side. Bringing them in vs boggles, infect or any voltron type decks is an instant win. Also complicates things for combo decks such as scapeshift / adnaseum as everyting is on the stack. What are your guys thoughts.
What are your guys thoughts on silent arbiter in the sideboard. I've been using it to great success against go wide strategies such as 8wack and tokens.
Was having a hard time against control, especially UW control with their counters and wraths.
What do you guys think about boil and choke with control becoming more popular.
Choke costs less but can die to their mainboard d-sphere
Boil is instant speed but costs 4.
I havent played this deck in a while but I did try it with hidden dragon slayer when it was released. Dragon slayer was very underwhelming to the least. It was either too slow or not as good seeker. Reality shift mainly targeted their rabble master and sometimes rashaka deathealer. Ive found that valorous stance missed a lot of the aggro creatures found in my meta. Ive also learned to hate chained to the rocks, but it seems that people are moving away from that. There are a lot of enchantment hate in this format so im not completely sure if this deck can make a comeback. Pls post your results tho.
Im not sure about Sidisi's Faithful it just feels like card disadvantage plus you have 12 tapped lands. It doesnt seem like you will be doing anything on turn 1 anyways. Disciple of Deceit to search for your enchantment + block goblin tokens. (you don't want that rabble master growing) Profaner of the Dead one sided board wipe for the pesky tokens flooding the meta and can clear the board for attacks. Torrent Elemental Big butt and can be discared to disciple to search your god although im not sure if the god is a good enough win con.
Finally how do you plan on winning against control.
I do like your list here over op's. However i feel that your spell suite should have god's willing or even that rebound protection spell (i forgot the name) instead of acolyte's reward. Also -1 gleam in favor for +1 mastery against more grindy/control matchups. Finally I'm not sure if High Sentinels of Arashin should be in your 4 drop due to the amount of removal in this format + even more with DTK. Instead how about Return to the Ranks / Mass Calcify / Spear of Heliod?

-1/-1 might be relevant against weenie decks
Profaner of the Dead

Do you mean mastery of the unseen?
