Deck Description

This is just my two cents for a Black control deck, that is fun to play, when you don't play too competitive.
PS. The idea with the cards in the side deck, is that one of my friends play a pesky elf deck.... With a lot of 3 or less mana cost creatures :)

Comments and suggestions are appreciated!

I'd like to see more acceleration here. I'm aware of the the likelihood of playing Woe early because of the removal, but Dark Rits would allow you to get him or Visara into play a turn or two earlier to end the game sooner.

With that said, consider removing Terror (as Doom Blade and GftT are doing the same thing) to add in at least 3 Rits. You could also consider replacing the Blades and/or Throats for Diabolic Edict or Chainer's Edict (as they aren't biased to color, but you don't get to choose (Diabolic Edict can be put on the Scepter)). I'm personally not a fan of Dark Banishing because of its cost, so if you take this advice, replace the Banishings with the Terrors.

So:

-3 Terror to +3 Dark Ritual
-4 Dark Banishing to +4 DIabolic Edict

And even consider adding in Demonic Tutor for some search or Liliana Vess to take advantage of all the creatures you are removing.

I welcome any comments and criticism you have to offer on any of the decks I have posted here (just click on my name to see the deck list). I have two Mono-Black decks (Necropotence and Multiplayer Mono-Black Control), perhaps they could offer assistance in your build. Thanks in advance.
