By request, I issued Andramalech the following challenge:

"Heart of Darkness Challenge - "The horror... the horror." - Build a Horror tribal deck. at least 25% of the deck must be creatures. Only include creatures that have the Horror type. You may choose the format."

To keep the fun going, he threw down the gauntlet by renewing the challenge with the added stipulations: "I challenge you to take up either Umbris, Fear Manifestas an EDH candidate, with the same stipulations, or take up Yarok, the Desecrated with the same challenge- it becomes your choice.

(I don't want to over impose as a first challenge, so I will keep it fairly simple since we already have a semi-metric.)

and in response to your choice, as most Pokemon games go, I will select the other as my choice."

---

This is my rough draft. I kept it simple - my main focus is on getting opponent's spells into exile. Since this is a tribal challenge as well, I also focused on including low-ish MV creatures that help me see my opponent's hand, exile things from their graveyard, and/or have quickly playable board presence. To round it out, I included a number of ramp spells, draw card, lots of removal, and a bit of counterspell.

Since Commander/EDH isn't a format I have much experience with, I'm at a bit of a disadvantage. So any suggestions are likely to be helpful. Additionally, I'd love for a super qualified someone to act as judge to determine who brewed the better deck! So if that's you, take a look at my competition and tell us who you think did better!
