K'rrik, Ruin Incarnate

Commander / EDH Mono-Black

ZionZaiyer


I always wanted to finish this Mono-Black deck based on the Apocalypse. The dead have arisen, demons have claimed the skies, and Phyrexia's influence continues to spread. Soul of New Phyrexia, Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor

With Aetherflux Reservoir + K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth + Leshrac's Sigil on the board its an instant game ender that can catch my opponents off guard. Use your mana as much as possible to return and recast Leshrac's Sigil and then with K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth return and recast the Sigil with your lifeforce and you'll eventually get to the point where you're gaining more than you're losing in life with Aetherflux Reservoir. Next thing you know, you'll have infinite health and can burst each opponent with Aetherflux Reservoir

When Krav, the Unredeemed + Mortarion, Daemon Primarch are on the board together it is just broken!!!! At the end of my turn I can pay X life to create X 2/2 Warriors with Mortarion, Daemon Primarch, and then at any time afterwards I can pay a single black mana to sac all of those 2/2 Warriors to gain my life back, draw X cards, and buff Krav, the Unredeemed with X +1/+1 counters!!!!

Ayara, First of Locthwain + Mortarion, Daemon Primarch is an insane value!!!! I can pay X life equal to the damage i've done to myself to gain it all back and deal the same damage to my opponents as well as get X 2/2's. 10/21/2022

Aetherflux Reservoir + Bolas's Citadel + Sensei's Divining Top is a classic meta infinite combo to end the game.

Boseiju, Who Shelters All + Exsanguinate + Torment of Hailfire is another classic way to win the game. Cabal Coffers + Crypt Ghast + Nirkana Revenant & Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx are great tools to gain an abundance of Mana for these spells to wipe the table.

Liliana's Contract and any four differently named demons on my board and it's an instant win.

Portal to Phyrexia and Liliana, Dreadhorde General are board wipes that gets rid of all those pesky indestructible and hexproof creatures.

Erebos, God of the Dead wrecks any life gain decks and he stops my opponents from being able heal any draining or damage I rack up on them throughout the game.

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion + Walking Ballista together are an instant win. Drop either of the artifacts down with Mikaeus on the board. Remove the counters to deal damage, bring them back with undying, remove their counters again, and repeat. Game.

I have a great list of Tutors to help get the cards I need for what ever situation comes up.

This deck can be a double edge sword with all of the self drain and self pings. So to counter act this I have plenty of healing to keep my life total in a good spot.

Demon's Horn, Bontu's Monument, Twilight Prophet, & Ayara, First of Locthwain all keep my health in a range that it doesn't bother me to use my health as a resource when i need it.

Whip of Erebos is more Flavorful life gain.

Black Market Connections is a great addition to this deck. It gives me choice of the value I need each of my turns. Token fodder to sacrifice, card advantage, and ramp. I couldn't have asked for a better card to add to my deck.

Bitterblossom, Dreadhorde Invasion, Great Unclean One, Mortarion, Daemon Primarch, Abhorrent Overlord, & Overseer of the Damned are the token generators to satisfy quite of few of my demons sacrificial demands.

Razaketh, the Foulblooded, Krav, the Unredeemed, & Ayara, First of Locthwain, all require some sort of creature sacrifice from my board to lend me their strength.

Ayara, First of Locthwain alone cancels out the down side of having Bitterblossom and give me an extra draw per turn.

Abhorrent Overlord + Ayara, First of Locthwain can nuke all of my opponents at the same time when I have a decent board state devoted to Black. In one of my latest games I dropped Abhorrent Overlord when I already had Ayara, First of Locthwain on my board and hit each opponent for 17+ damage.

Since I have Liliana's Contract in this deck it's only right (for the flavor) to have Demonlord Belzenlok, Kothophed, Soul Hoarder, & Razaketh, the Foulblooded in this deck. Of course, I would have loved to add Big Daddy Griselbrand in here but he's banned...SAD FACE.

Thinking about making room for either of these: Cloudstone Curio, Conjurer's Closet, Demon of Wailing Agonies, Profane Command, Tomb Fortress, Vampiric Rites, Sower of Discord, Archfiend of Despair, Braids, Arisen Nightmare, Herald of Anguish, Ob Nixilis, Unshackled, Sloppity Bilepiper, Reiver Demon, Staff of the Death Magus

Sanguine Bond, Exquisite Blood, Tivash, Gloom Summoner, Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia, Oversold Cemetery, Ophiomancer, Archfiend of Depravity, Curtains' Call, Sorin Markov, Magus of the Coffers, Profane Tutor, Prismatic Lens, and/or Dreadfeast Demon
