Necromancer

by Nevaborn on 08 August 2011

Main Deck (78 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

Master of the dead. Summon epic creatures back from the dead, and you placed them there.

I may add multi-colour cards, but for now keeping it evil with mostly black. I also prefer newer cards/cards with cool artwork.

This is a WIP and any ideas or tips is appreciated!! :)

Deck discussion for Necromancer

the deck looks pretty solid but with a few changes you'd be able to make it a lot quicker:

- Moonlight Bargain is a nice card but simply way to expensive. by the time you can afford 5 mana the game should be over anyway (though that may be different if you happen to draw a dark ritual)
- Dread Return and Vigor Mortis are too expensive as well, i'd recommend you take a look at Exhume, Animate Dead, Reanimate, Necromancy, Victimize or Dance of the Dead
- instead of Augur of Skulls i'd recommend Putrid Imp

- What do you need Grasp of Darkness for? you might consider exchanging it with Doom Blade or Go for the Throat

as you are reanimating all the creatures anyway you don't need to stick to black. personally i love white creatures such as Reya Dawnbringer; Iona, Shield of Emeria or Blazing Archon
finally you might want to take a look at my reanimator deck for further inspiration (or comments, that'd obviously be very much appreciated):

Thank you for the great feedback!

I agree with you on moonlight bargain. Augur of Skulls I took for some early game survival and it helps to get cards I want into my GY. Same as grasp of darkness, for early game survival. To be honest, I don't like old cards and I've been building decks with the intention of having cards that are both good and look good, haha. :)

I initially intended to have multi-colour epic creatures in this deck and possibly still will, but for the time being I thought I would keep it evil since there are enough evil black creatures anyways. Nice deck btw :]
