Well, what are the people that you play with playing?

As for what you have, Malakir is great for W/X control decks, white weenie, basically things white.

Mimic Vat is good against either B/X control, or a deck with lots of creatures that you can kill as well.

Duress is great vs. control and ramp although generally dead in aggro matchups.

Sadistic Sacrament is great Vs. Ramp and control, although not so much for aggro.

Abyssal Persecutor is really really good against a lot, great against control because he comes out quick, aggro decks have a hard time stopping him. It's just you need either the monument, or the gatekeeper otherwise he's useless...so I don't know how good he'd be in your deck.

Well I'm not really sure, I can beat all m buddys decks in casual with it everytime but I haven't played in a tourney yet so I'm not sure what the local players around me have. I was iffy on putting sacrament inthere but I think im going to take it out.

Oh and with Viscera Seer I can scry for one, Sac creature to look at top of my library. I may put it at the bottom of my library if I want. I forgot about that.

Would it be a wise decision to lower the swamp mana down to 22? Would allow me to keep 2 cards or add 2.

What about this?
