OLD STANDARD DECK

This deck is designed to drain your opponents life - with my faithful pal Festering Newt

Main Deck

Bogbrew Witch , Festering Newt and Bubbling Cauldron - just amusing, powerful and fun to play with
Doom Blade and Hero's Downfall - for removal
Gray Merchant of Asphodel - for end game scenarios or stabilizing mid game
Gift of Immortality recur Festering Newt / Gray Merchant of Asphodel after sacrificing or protect creatures to slow aggro
Nightveil Specter - solid flier, great devotion and an amusing ability!
Desecration Demon - for smashing stuff / form of removal
lilliana of the dark realms - removal or getting lands, what more can I say!
Elspeth, Sun's Champion - Solid, solid, solid. Tokens can chump block, they can be sacrificed for life, can use her for mass removal, nice.
Vizkopa Guildmage nice two drop with a cool set of abilities.
Underworld Connections - Dig through the deck and great devotion towards Gray Merchant of Asphodel

Sideboard

Dark Betrayal - swap for doomblade against black decks
Glare of Heresy - against white decks
Revoke Existence - against bestow decks/gods
Bile Blight - anti - aggro / small pack rats / token spam
Drown in Sorrow - anti-aggro / token spam
Pithing Needle - anti-AEtherling among other things

All help and suggestions welcomed! Thanks, +1 if you enjoy it :)

Edit

I'm thinking towards rotation already - And... well - I want to shift those Nightveil Specter and Desecration Demon while they hold value... so at the moment my current thinking is...

-3x Nightveil Specter -3x Desecration Demon +4x Herald of Torment +2x Whip of Erebos

Switch up — Feb. 3, 2014
