My take on a mono-black Darth Knights list.

There is some great synergy here with Knight and Zombie tribal action. This is all about versatility, while maintaining a mono-coloured approach. I'm all about trying new strategies in modern and this looks both entertaining and promising.

To see the WB version check out my other list: haakon

Interactions:

• Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Knights, Gravecrawler and discard engines.

• Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Nameless Inversion for combo abuse.

• Gravecrawler + discard engines, Haakon and the numerous other Zombie cards.

• Door of Destinies + Haakon and the Zombie tribal type, allows for repeat casting (i.e. "Zombie" Knights and Gravecrawler. This can lead to huge P/T boosts. This is a bit slow and hasn't been tested, so in the event it's too fragile the door will be kicked in for something else.

• Necromancer's Stockpile + any Zombie creatures, especially Haakon and other "Zombie Knights".
