I have always been a combo player even when I used to play yugioh, but always trying to get that killer combo in is a lot harder with 20 more cards in the deck.

So I scaled back the combo a little and went with this deck after reading about Pain Seer on a magic article.

The idea is to keep your opponents creature off the board and gain card and life advantage.

Pain Seer, Underworld Connections and eventually Erebos, God of the Dead gain you card advantage, with the later stopping your opponent from gaining life.

Gift of Orzhova and Whip of Erebos get you the life to support pain and heralds.

Agent of the Fates comboing with any bestow creature or the gifts, plus the normal destroying spells should takes care of the opponents creatures.

Gray merchant and night howler are great late game if you are being controlled to get those last few life points from someone.

Side board is obvious with more death spells and thought seize for better control over opponent.

So far have gone 5-3 with it at a very good fnm group. Two of the losses were more about my mistakes (attacked when I should have counted players attack power and incorrect side boarded deck bringing in more kills when opponent took out monsters for counters)

weakness is artifacts but being mono black you would expect that. Any sugestions welcome, help me make this a truely top class deck!!!!
