Return to Dust is an instant that you wouldn't cast during combat.  Same thing with Enlightened Tutor , which can go get Caltrops or either of your Minefields (which is a cool idea with Basandra BTW).

I knew you would mention those as I thought of them already Wink - but I have no idea what to remove for them.  I'll have to play some more to find out.

Stranglehold

Slow down their defenses and beat them down.

No tutoring for answers.

I really like the idea of Stranglehold - that's on the potential list now.

I'm finally getting back around to modifying this deck.  I made a couple changes:

Out:
Kabira Vindicator - Not a bad card, but the level up cost is so high I didn't use it very often, making him pretty worthless.
That Which Was Taken - Same as above, nice card but the mana intensiveness stopped me from using it most of the time.

In:
Woolly Razorback - Not that useful in most decks but could be great in a forced attack deck like this one.
Return to Dust

I was also thinking of Hold the Line but there is the obvious issue of it being potentially useless when Basandra is out.

Avacyn Restored Changes:

Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion replaced with Slayers' Stronghold - Vigilance is more important than Double strike in this deck.
Balefire Dragon replaced with Gisela, Blade of Goldnight - Gisela is much better in a forced attack deck.
Pristine Angel replaced with Malignus - Malignus is a great giant wall for stuff to run into.
Platinum Emperion replaced with Avacyn, Angel of Hope - A tough one, but the Emperion is more vulnerable and I can still die to commander damage with it (which has happened).
Marshal's Anthem replaced with Cathars' Crusade
Razia's Purification replaced with Terminus - Terminus should be a better fit and Purification has punished me more than my opponents on some uses.

One more change:

Cathars' Crusade replaced with Ajani Vengeant - I got a copy of the Boros Ajani and this deck is the best fit for it.

I replaced Glorious Anthem with Creepy Doll - the +1/+1 from the Anthem just doesn't cut it in this deck.
