This is pretty interesting because i used to have a deck just like this except for a 4 card mainboard difference and not as many filter lands. Since i started playing magic at eventide i naturally bought a lot of eventide boosters and first formed a deck similar to this.(Other editions i borrowed from my neighbors at the time) If a deck so similer to mine was posted by the magic lord then it must be good!

[biggels93]

also get rid of the leechridden swamps, find a different filter land to use instead. I don't know about the area you play in, but where i live this deck would be destroyed by a direct hit from stigma lasher (http://www.cardkingdom.com/card_viewer.php?sid=508294664&pid=125103) or the enchantment everlasting torment (http://www.cardkingdom.com/card_viewer.php?sid=508294664&pid=124567). Like i said it depends on where you play. everyone who plays an aggro deck at my FNM either has a playset of stigma or torment in their mainboard or sideboard, and some even have playsets of both in their deck. Some advice on this forum might be useless because you build a deck around your experience with other decks so some ideas and suggestions would be completely absurd to you.
In my white weenie deck i use oblivion rings just because they are so darn useful in these types of situations and would fit perfectly in your deck since greater auramancy protects them from being directly targeted(which you have probably already thought of since recumbiant bliss is in there). the other thing i use is inquisitor's snare (http://www.cardkingdom.com/index.php?sid=168944248&keyword=inquisitor%27s+snare&main=catalog&catalog_id=125) because my playing style is more like getting rid of any threat rather than prolonging a cards potential destruction with an enchantment and i like that it's cheaper than unmake even though it can only get rid of red and black creatures. But it is still a cheap way to keep a lifelink creature from dying and gaining some life that is desperately needed.

drop leechridden add 4 arcane sactum drop vivid lands add swamps plains or shimmering grotto.drop 2 diabolic tutors switch out from sideboard for the umakes. drop the warhammers and I agree add the o rings better spot removal great for taking out hose spesky planeswalkers. hopefully this will help. I am new to the site.

Throw in some Knight of Meadowgrain (http://www.cardkingdom.com/card_viewer.php?sid=691563623&pid=123531). Also if its based around lifelink then try throwing in a couple Test of Endurance (http://www.cardkingdom.com/card_viewer.php?sid=691563623&pid=58028), and try to get a enlightened tutor for the deck. A worship (http://www.cardkingdom.com/card_viewer.php?sid=691563623&pid=31330) wouldnt be bad to throw in as well (worship can work in pretty much any white deck).

[biggels93]

I agree with the Knight of Meadowgrains.

not to be rude, but if you read the first paragraph you would have noticed that he wants to take this deck to FNM, and i am pretty sure that 2 of the cards that were suggested where not standard.

HOWEVER, if those cards have been remade, i admit here and now that i am ignorant and an ---hole.

Also try to put a few edge of divinity in just to give your nip gwullion and voracios hatchling more power for more life quicker.

[biggels93]

i just realized that this was posted a couple months ago and he probably doesn't even use this deck right now.

Ah, my bad I didnt really know what FNM was until I googled it. My local game shop has a magic night on Friday, but any Type 1 deck is allowed.

I agree on the edge of divinity though. Stacking lifelink is a good.

[biggels93]

so basically i was right and wrong. I thought that you where only alowed to play type 2 for FNM, i did not know that it was different elsewhere.

So i am a partial ---hole, but not really, but still a little

sorry for disregarding the old style cards.

[Jori]

Well it very well could just be my local gamestore. In any case I dont think what my store has is exactly "FNM".. Its just magic that happens to occur on friday lol.

[lawlessurchin]

You won't be land screwed often if you just divvy it up correctly with basic lands. You do not need 4 Divinity. Two is great, maybe 3 if you see yourself getting 5 land consistently. Otherwise, he clogs up your hand for 5 turns.
Edge of the divinity is the greatest 1 cost enchantment in the set, maybe ever! +3/+3 for (B/W). getting a Nip gwyllion out and a second turn 4 lifelink swing happens a lot in my B/W Lifelink deck. Don't underestimate the hatchlings. Go for 3. If you are going to have mostly white cards and W/B cards, you only need plains, don't forget that. I would toss the goldenglow moth. 4 Unmakes minimum. There is mourning thrull i think it's called. Look into that and there is also a card I forgot the name that is (X)(B)(W) where x is the damage to target creature or player and you gain x life. I willl look into that name for you. try that out

[lawlessurchin]

Looked it up, it's called death grasp. It's from apocolypse. Other cards that come to mind are shadow lance and the Deathbringer liege is a killer creature control.

[mtglord]

thanks for the advice but i already played with it at fnm and i won even beat ww kithkin. it worked great but now i play my grixis disruption deck to amazing sucsess.
