Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Creatures (3)


Sorceries (3)

Instants (4)


Planeswalkers (2)


Artifacts (3)

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

I was hoping to make a decent discard deck. This is about the best I can do. Help would greatly appreciated.

How to Play

Make people discard. The more they discard, the more damage they'll take. The smaller their hand size is, the more damage they'll take. Hope they can last long enough for the full combo to be fully pulled off.

Deck discussion for Lowered Intellect

I believe that Black is one of the hardest mono-coloured decks to pull off. Any advice on how to make this deck better would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

could also put some punishment in there like mana web and contaminate ground for slowing their abilities down

I believe the only reason I didn't add that in was because it was to target player. If I was playing a multiplayer game, it would only affect one player and when that player was out, it would serve no other purpose.
Thank you for the idea though. Do you have any others for this deck?

insidious bookworms isnt bad since they don't want to discard they will eat the damage till they must block it and then you pay 2 and get them to discard

worms of the earth might be cool to see since it slows them down enough to make shrieking affliction hurt them or they just sac the land and you are now ahead

Insidious Bookworms is basically a Drainpipe vermin with a higher costing death ability. Worms of the earth is such a late game card that it would hurt me more than it would hurt my opponents. It also wouldn't help shrieking affliction at all. They'd keep the lands in they pull in their hand and that would build up their hand. Cabal Interrogator is actually decent, but I don't know if I'd be able to find any since he's such an older card.
Thank you for suggestions. If you see any other things you'd like to change with this deck, or any other, please let me know!

I wana say go for the throat. A discard deck's control power should come from the opponents lack of play choices. Feel free to check out mine. Its also a rat tribal :)
