My idea for a discard deck. I love black decks (pause), and I saw the opportunity to make this one with the cards that I had. The purpose of this deck is to get rid of card from the opponents hand, and force them to top deck. If they're a top deck champ, then hey, good on them... but very rare is the occasion that someone can top deck exactly what they need. To balance the life lost from Herald of Torment , I decided on Whip of Erebos to get that life back and then some. I love Waste Not, as it makes sure no card that an opponent discards is discarded in vane. I also have Erebos, God of the Dead in here to try and mitigate some of the card advantage given by Master of the Feast. 3 drop 5/5 w/ flying though? You have to play that when you can. Its too good. Ideas and thoughts welcome. Open to sideboard discussion as well.

Thinking about SB'ing Doomwake Giant for 2 reasons:
1. Constellation ability would trigger Grim Guardian2. He could board wipe the majority of token spammers when he enters

Key combos in this deck:
Fate Unraveler + Master of the Feast
Crippling Blight + Grim Guardian

Against Aggro playtest... — Jan. 5, 2015
Edit

Played a few games against a friend of mine today with this deck. First game he played a mono red aggro deck. This discard deck against red aggro is actually viable, it helps if you can start out with a Despise in your opening hand. I ended up winning against that deck 2-1. He then played a modern zoo deck, and wiped the floor with me. But, its modern vs standard, so I didn't expect much. That was a quick 0-2. The last deck he ran was a mono green modern deck, which actually ended up with me winning 2-1 again. Master of the Feast is an amazing card in this deck. It also helps to ping your opponent down every turn with Fate Unraveler. Thinking about taking out Crippling Blight, as I did not see much use for it in this specific playtest. Maybe keep it as a sideboard card? Replace with Hero's Downfall? We'll see
