Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

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

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Mono black control focused around out drawing opponent and ramping up mana to use "x" swamp kickers. there are some cool creature combos in here also.

any ideas on what could improve this deck?

I also wouldn't mind replacing the 8 cards out of standard to make it standard

Deck discussion for mbc needs help

I've got a couple suggestions this deck.

- The Disciple of Bolas doesn't fit very well, as it's your 4-drop, and the only creatures below it are Blood Artist, who has 0 power, and Nighthawk, who you do not want to sacrifice; holding it in your hand to cast it on your bombs isn't a great idea either... so unless you're planning to throw in some cheap undying guys, the Disciple will probably have to go.
- The deck is fairly top-heavy at the moment. Having 2 Grislebrands is pushing it even with Liliana helping you ramp up. Not to mention, you have six spells at 6 mana. This should be trimmed down a bunch.
- Mutilate > Killing Wave. Mutilate is your answer to their threats, and it gets around regeneration, and indestructible guys. It's better than Killing Wave for sure, which allows your opponent to choose what to keep (usually the one that will win them the game). Considering you're mono-black, you should be running 4 Mutilates. Especially since you don't have that many creatures down before turn 4-5.
- This deck has the very late game in mind. Not only are you wanting to ramp up to Grislebrand, but you also want to use Lily's ult and then finish with Exsnaguinate... to achieve this, you'll need more than just removal. I'd recommend a discard package featuring Duress, Despise, and Surgical Extraction. Your sideboard should also have Memoricide for combo decks.
- You probably don't need Murder if you have the aforementioned discard/disruption, and if you run more Mutilate/Geth's Verdict.
