Deck Description

I would like a little help with this deck as far making improvements.

So far it runs pretty good with what it has in it already but it feel like it's missing something. I do have a lot of removal so I know I have no problem there.

I need some enchantment and artifact removal. Black does not provide a lot but I know red does. Which cards would be good for EDH format.

As always any and all suggestions will be considered.

Thank you
beyond

Deck discussion for EDH Olivia

Since this EDH, you have much more time and mana, and much less ability to agro in the early game, since you have no playsets and cannot easily deal 40 damage from small creatures. Therefore, I would advise you drop the smaller creatures in favour of more cards like Mephidross Vampire and Sheoldred that provide really horrible effects. Bear in mind that with the amount of board-wipes and removal, a creature needs to be worth playing even if it dies a turn later.

Secondly, you might find that you have a more relaxing game if you drop red altogether; it seems to me that splashing red will only give you problems for getting the right mana balance, and also hinders Vampire Nocturnus. Personally, I love red, but I think having only a little is weak.

Check out my own Red/Black deck for comparison, and offer your own ideas :3
