Description

Introduction

This is a mono black aggro deck that has a better mana curve than most traditional mono black aggro decks that are a bit full of 3-mana spells. This deck drops a few 3 mana spells to accomodate 4 Misery's Shadowimages in the 2 mana slot.

The deck is a work in progress.

Main Deck

60 Cards

1 Mana Spells

8 Cards

  • 4 Cut Downimage — The best 1 mana black removal spell.
  • 4 Evolved Sleeperimage — Boostable creature that can draw you cards.

2 Mana Spells

12 Cards

image image image

3 Mana Spells

6 Cards + 3 Cards with 3 Mana Prototype Ability = 9 Cards

image image image

  • 4 Graveyard Trespasser // Graveyard Gluttonimage — Perhaps the best 3 mana drop for black. It has a great ward ability, can become 4/4 during night, can cause direct damage, can gain life, and can remove key cards from graveyards.
  • 2 Liliana of the Veilimage — Liliana is very dangerous, when the opponent is playing with only a few big creatures. However, if the opponent has something like Skrelv's Hiveimage, Wedding Announcement // Wedding Festivityimage, or Mirreximage, Lily is not that great.
  • 3 Phyrexian Fleshgorgerimage (Prototype) — A great artifact creature that has a 3 mana prototype ability. It goes around Cut Downimage and Go for the Throatimage and its direct removal costs life. It's great also for having lifelink and menace, which are useful both for attacking and for defense. You can also play it as 7/5 in the late game, when its direct removal costs 7 life.

4 Mana Spells

4 Cards

5 Mana Spells

2 Cards

  • 2 Gix's Commandimage — An excellent utility card. It can easily be one-sided boardswipe against some decks.

Lands

25 Cards

image image image image

  • 19 Swampimage
  • 2 Field of Ruinimage — Some land destruction.
  • 3 Mishra's Foundryimage — A good man-land. Lands are not destroyed by sweepers, such as Sunfallimage and Farewellimage, which makes man-lands useful against control decks.
  • 1 Takenuma, Abandoned Mireimage — A legendary channel land that can be used to return one of your creatures or planeswalkers to your hand from your graveyard.
