Some explanations on cards in this deck and why I want to keep them

Misdirection-helps resolve early phids and Blood moons

Mana leak- with bloodmoon in play it is sometimes hard to cast drains or have a counter war.

Impulse over brainstorm- I only run 5 ways to shuffle and impulse digs deeper into my deck to sometimes find my plains or bloodmoons

Phids- simply just because they are better then scepters(my opinion)

White- best removal in the game

Sword- best removal in the game makes dragon match up managerable

Decree of justice>Morphling enuf said

Blood Moon - Simply a game winner in most match ups

Onto the sideboard
3 Crypts amazing aganist dragon
4 ReBs control goodness and godly aganist fish as removal
2 Rack and ruin workshop.dec
2 D. Blow workshop.dec and enchantments are a pain in the ass.
1 Blood Moon same reason as it is main deck
3 FTK aggro control the only questionable cards in my deck.  may become swords and 2 other cards dunno yet.

But mainly I want to cut the deck down to 60 cards

Fixed font color. Special K, please post in a more readable color.

Changes
+ Misdirection(I like resolving early phid or moons aganist control, and sui or sligh matchs are laughable)

-Impulse(don't really miss it but they do help if I only have 1 Island in play and a Island)

-Fact or Fiction(Many necromancy/Ancestral resolve in response to this card because it is the most opportune time

-Fire/ice(the deck is smaller so not so many removal is needed)

-solring(first turn solring go is really ass and it doesn't add much late game since in some cases I will have many mountains to use.)

-volcanic Island(I get to have a bunch of mountains)

Sideboard considerations
-3 FTK
+Swords to plowshare
+2 cards to deal with aggro but really good to combat troll ascetic, I was thinking Wall of nets\n\n

Cut 2 Mana Leaks, a Swords, and a Volcanic Island.  I think you will still be happy with what you are trying to accomplish.

thanks for fixing the font...

Misdirection doesn't seem to be stellar right now, I'd cut at least one, actually I'd rather just cut white altogether, but I won't get into all that right now.

[Zherbus]

Moved again. The only problem I can see is SpecialK's text color. Please change that.

[Tindemans]

I'd cut one Fire/Ice and/or one StP,
one Leak and/or one MisD,
and maybe one Impulse.

I would try the following:

-1 Swords
-1 Fire/Ice
-2 Mana Leak

I know its hard to cut cards in a deck like this, but you need to keep as much draw as possible. I would actually like to cut one mana source, as i find 27 is usually enough in Phid, however i cant decide which one.

As for the sideboard, i would like to see 2-3 Chalice in there, it is still a great card even with Long dead.

Cut the maindeck Bloodmoons.  Bloodmoon seems to be very highly rated right now, but I don't really know why.  Everyone seems very prepared for it.  I would place them in the sideboard, cut the Merchant Scroll and cut a mana source, probabally Sol Ring.  Land - Mox first turn allows you to Leak or Impulse.  Land - Sol Ring first turn doesn't do much for your deck, unless you continue to run maindeck Bloodmoon.  It accelerates your Phid drop, but Land - Mox on turn 1, followed by land on turn 2 is just as effective in regards to playing that turn 2 phid.  If you really, really love Sol Ring, I'd cut an Island.

Also, why only 3 Wastes and no Gorilla Shaman?

@Milton

I assume the lack of a 4th Waste is due to the presence of Blood Moon maindeck. As for Gorilla Shaman, i imagine its a space issue more than anything else.

Updated with further testing just need some thoughts on sideboard cards

Quote +2 cards to deal with aggro but really good to combat troll ascetic, I was thinking Wall of nets

With the additional Misdirection Troll Ascetic shouldn't be a problem.  Misdirect their bolts to their Troll.  That's how I dealt with the Troll in my last match-up.

[specialk]

its a green troll deck that will be giving me fits. sorry not to clarify that.  I think I will test lightning angels in the board just because I got a soft spot for them from back when I played type 2 or Rakavolver:P\n\n
