Deck Description

I started back at 4th edition. Back when a drain life deck meant you use the card "Drain Life". Here's my version. If I'm missing a must include card that's been released in the past decade I'd love to be brought up to speed. Happy casting. ~Dw~

Deck discussion for Drain True Life

Basic premise is simple accumulate as much black mana as possible and drain life anything dangerous on the board and the opponent with no remorse. Feel free to sack swamps for mana early as they can be brought back with TT and there are numerous other ways to get mana i.e. sack from the board, discard, dark ritual. The bounty hunters have proved a less than perfect creature stopper in the past but I'm not convinced anything else is better at the moment. With instill energy they are much better. The instill serves a couple purposes but I'm not convinced a little more protection wouldn't serve my interests better. I just discovered the sanguine bond yesterday. This deck was dangerous before but now... save your counterspells boys 8 X spells that all get a 2x multiplier.
