The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Deck Description

Mono Black control deck that uses Skithiryx as it's win condition. Looks good to me, except I dunno how to handle someone casting Memoricide on me except cast mine first. Suggestions?

Deck discussion for Skithiryx Control

Why do you have Verdant Catacombs in here? I don't see you winning many games with this deck. There is one win condition. Skythirix. You have more then memoricide to worry about. Every instance of creature control is a threat to this deck. I suggest that you make this less about crippling your opponent for the first five turns and more about making yourself a threat. Skith is a great card, but you need more assault if you want to win games. You are unable to counter spells from opposition.
25 swamps is too much in a mono black deck, especially with all the mana producing artifacts that you have.

How do you plan to hit anyone with Skithiryx? Whispersilk Cloak?
Doesn't really matter I suppose, by turn 4,5, or 6 (when you can play Skithiryx and give him haste) Your opponent should have something to deal with him right away...
Trust me, I pretty much breathe mono black (with occasional blue tinting) and this deck just doesn't look like it will control anyone.
