I used a version of this deck to reach Mythic in Bo1 Standard in MTG Arena.

My goal is to make a Monoblack deck that performs decently against the most prominent deck archetypes. Creatures like Daemogoth Titan, Mire Triton, Woe Strider, and 1/1 Pests are generally good against Monored Aggro, Big Green, and Gruul. Against Dimir Rogues, Blood on the Snow, Agadeem's Awakening  , and Woe Strider are all good at getting value out of the graveyard. Against control with sweepers or removal, Village Rites, Plumb the Forbidden, and Castle Locthwain can allow me to keep drawing cards and pumping out small creatures while my opponent loses life from Bastion of Remembrance. Feed the Swarm is great against Shrines and white enchantment-heavy decks.

The main win conditions of this deck are combat damage and Bastion of Remembrance damage. Cards like Daemogoth Titan and escaped Woe Strider can deal lots of combat damage while Sedgemoor Witch with sacrifice outlets like Plumb the Forbidden can sacrifice small creatures to deal lots of damage and gain lots of life through Bastion of Remembrance.

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
