Speaking of that, you only have targeted removal. Enemy Hexproof creatures might almost be untouchable. But, since you're playing black, you have plenty of ways to make your opponent sacrifice creatures, which gets around hexproof. The first one I can think of that sounds very good for you is Geth's Verdict.Thanks for reminding me. Dropped in Geth's Verdict.
Also may drop in Bad Moon's (Black creatures get +1/+1)).
Today I discovered Blind Zealot (3drop 2/2 Intimidate, Whenever Blind Zealot deals combat damage to a player, you may sacrifice it. If you do, destroy target creature that player controls.)
Dropped her in immediately. On a related note, might get some Disentombs.

Some cards you might like are Gatekeeper of Mailkar, and Phyrexian Obliterator.

I like Jace though. =P Goddamn Nissa.
Wonder if there's a series of those. Where I got my prevous avatars from a series Magic comics called "Lotus Cobra is Evil"
Just came home from a draft, drafted a good deck, but misplayed some, still 3-2, which was good. Mana flooded pretty hard during my games though.
Drafted a pretty sweet Selesnya deck. Didn't have many populate cards, but I had plenty of token generators. Also had bombs in Armada Wurm and Loxodon Smiter.

Oh I love drafts! I coulda drafted today, but there was a group of EDH players playing and I couldn't pass that up. Man, did I get so much hate for my Olivia Deck....but then again, that's to be excpected. That deck is a BITCH, lol. I was the winner in the pod I played it in, even though there was a mind over matter deck present *pats self on back*.

I keep nice and quiet until i got my combo set up, then just win on the spot.
Rebuilding that deck though, it was monoblue, but now I'm gonna make it Red_Blue, making the commander Niv Mizzet.

Yah, the mind over matter players in my playgroup play it cool until they combo out, just like you, lol. Who is your commander in the mono-blue version. In my group there's a Jin-Gitaxias, an Arcanis, a Thada Adel (actually this guy gets kinda agressive), and an Azami.
EDIT: I played against the Thada, made him (and everyone else) ragequit, lol.

Arcanis. If we play dual-commander, then Arcanis and Teferi. Jin-Gitaxias is in the deck, but I don't use him as a commander.

I did a few researches and I'm still confused.
Question,
How exactly does Fiend Hunter and Cloudshift work together?
Do I get to exile 2 creatures or no?
Also, how can I explain it to other people that I play with using simple words?
Thanks

So, with anything like Fiend Hunter (Itself, Oblivion Ring, Journey to Nowhere, Detention Sphere), they enter the battlfield first, then the first ability to exile something tries to resolve. If it is removed before that ability resolves, then its second ability, return the exiled thing to the battlefield, resolves first, even though you haven't exiled it yet. It resolves, nothing happens, then the first ability resolves and the thing you exiled is gone forever.
With Cloudshift, you put Fiend Hunter's first ability on the stack, cast Cloudshift, blinking him, then targeting another thing. The first target will be exiled forever, and you get to hit another target, except that second one can still be returned when Fiend Hunter dies (unless you can have the Fiend Hunter leave the battefield again in some way before that first ability resolves).
Sorry its complex, I didn't get it my first time myself.
As simply as I can put it, when it enters, you choose a target, and before it's exiled, you removed your exiler (in this case, the Fiend Hunter) from the battlefield, causing you to return the target to the battlefield, even though it hasn't left yet, then it finally gets exiled, without the opportunity to return. And since it entered the battlefield again from Cloudshift, you can choose another target to exile.

Oh, finally, after thinking while reading this over and over again, I got it.
Just to confirm, do I need to play Cloudshift the moment Fiend Hunter enters the battlefield or no?

Most specifically, you need to respond to the "enters the battlefield" trigger. So basically, yes, just as it enters the battlefield.

Interesting... you let me know when its done.
EDIT: New Gatecrash spoiler, after those 5 mythics. Simic apparently is still rockin' the +1/+1 counters. I'm pretty excited for Simic stuff since I've been trying to brew up some blue-green decks for standard.

Another question,
Let's say I cast Isochron Scepter and imprinted Swords to Plowshares, the pay 2 mana copy exiled card, is that forever until the Scepter is destroyed?
Nice gatecrash, but I'm still sticking to my standard plan, Orshov and Boros.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. If its about the original Swords, then it's just exiled once the Sceptor is destroyed. If your talking about a copied Swords effect, yeah, the thing you exiled with Swords is gone forever, it doesn't come back when the Sceptor comes back.
I do like Orzhov colors, the EDH I've been wanting to make is WHite-Black. I think it was sakabato that was the Boros player in this thread.
However I've been finding some fun little things to do with blue and green cards cards. My current project is trying to figure out the Nivmagus-Quirion deck.

Swords remains exiled even if the scepter is destroyed
