Been thinking about that actually. It started out as normal naya aggro and I added collected company last minute. Really enjoying the instant speed fiend hunters, silverblades, and voices.

So, I don't think that Warden of the First Tree really fits in a deck with this many low drop creatures. More often than not, you're going to want to deploy other threats more than pump him up. I also think you need more interaction with the other player, so probably a few more kill spells and MAYBE some draw spells. As is, a midrange deck that gains life is a nightmare for this. I feel like 4 Surrak is a little too much.So my suggestions would be, maybe add Den Protector, a couple of Bile Blights and Downfalls, just a few. 3 Surrak, MAYBE cut Warden. As you know, I'm not a huge fan of Master of the Feast, though he fit perfectly in your U/B deck.
I like this deck. Are you guys doing some weird meta where every three weeks you switch out the block and every 2 weeks you switch the core set? And right now you guys are on Lorwyn/Innistrad/M10? That's a really cool deck with a really cool idea.
Throw in Eidolon of Blossoms, you would like that car. It doesn't really fit this deck extremely well, but it's 100% your style
Have you seen episode 13 of Orange is the New Black? This comment seems like you're referencing it.
This deck is really cool! It's never going to do well in standard though. If I were you, I'd replace your lands with 17 Swamp, 4 Temple of Deceit, and 4 Mutavaults. I also don't like the creatures you're running with that mana base that I just suggested, so I'd run 4 Nightveil Specter, 4 Pack Rat, 4 Desecration Demon, and 4 Gray Merchant of Asphodel. I'm not huge on burn so, here's what I'd change with your spells: 4 Devour Flesh, 4 Thoughtseize, 3 Hero's Downfall, 2 Bile Blight, and 1 Ultimate Price. I think you also need permanents to help you get hand advantage and to add to devotion with Gray Merchant of Asphodel, so I'd run 4 Underworld Connections and 1 Whip of Erebos.As for your sideboard, here's what I'd run. 2 Bile Blight, 1 Pithing Needle, 1 Dark Betrayal, 2 Doom Blade, 4 Duress, 2 Erebos, God of the Dead, and 3 Lifebane Zombie.I hope I helped and good luck with your new Mono Black Devtotion Deck! Cheers!
