INTRO~
Hey everyone this is a deck I made on a low budget. This was not made to spend a whole bunch of money on. I put a lot of time into the setup. I took my best modern deck and decided to make it standard so this is it. Thanks for checking it out! I buy all my cards from Channel Fireball. It's a lot better than Ebay and other sites, trust me they are trustworthy.
I also have not made any sideboard yet... If you have a suggestion comment!
HOW TO USE~
Lets start out with the kill spells. Sadly as of now black really only has one good kill spell Hero's Downfall a $18 dollar card. Well we do the best we can do here.
4x Bile Blight~ Great to kill of some Pack Rat and some other lower level creatures early on and later on in the game.
2x Pharika's Cure~ Nice healing spell and good to smash a creature with.
3x Eternal Thirst~ This is a pretty good card to have on a creature. This with Squelching Leeches can get deadly pretty fast.
4x Despise~ Pretty self explanatory why this is good. Especially on turn 1.
1x Hall of Triumph~ Self Explanatory boost up them creatures.
1x Empty the Pits~ Late game this will finish your opponent off. But if you get this at the start it sucks.
22x swamps~ don't need that much land for this deck.
Now lets get into the creature cards.We got some scary turn one creatures such as Tormented Hero to put on the pressure. Brain Maggot and screw up an opponents hand effectively. Turn 3 we can put something out really scary... a 3/2 with deathtouch Agent of the Fates. And as we get higher in mana Squelching Leeches comes in. Usually late game when your devotion is high Gary, Merchant of Asphodel is a good finsher.
4x Typhoid Rats~ The reason I like this card because its annoying and hard to deal with in a opponents eyes. Your not gonna send in your big creature just to get taken out by a small Typhiod Rats. Just great to stall and block some big creatures. Great intimidation
4x Brain Maggot~ Great to screw an opponents hand up and slow him down so you can get some more creatures in play.
4x Agent of the Fates~ This will be a nice scare for your opponent turn 3 or more. With deathtouch you don't have to be afraid anymore. Except flying...
1x Erebos, God of the Dead~ This guy becomes a beast in later games.Or just need to stop a lifegain deck in its tracks.
3x Spiteful Returned~ Great to equip and take some health off opponents.
4x Squelching Leeches~ OMG this card is the bomb! By far this card can completely be a beast. Pretty self explanatory.
4x Gary, Merchant of Asphodel~ This card has saved me so many times. Sometimes theres just situations where you have a ton of creatures on the field but your opponent is still winning (it doesn't sound real but it is trust me). Gary will save you as he has saved me a ton of times.
SIDEBOARD~
If you feel the deck not working out try this.
1x Dictate of Erebos~ Best card to have on the field for a lot of reasons hands down. Take out 1x Empty the Pits
3x Phyrexian Revoker~ I really like this card because it screws some players up pretty bad. Usually you would take out 3x Spiteful Returned for this.
3x Archfiend of Depravity~ This guy is a boss and there is no doubt. Making your opponent only allowed having two creatures out at a time is a huge advantage. Take out 3x Gray Merchant of Asphodel
4x Master of the Feast~ A turn 3 5/5 Flyer seems great. if you think his effect might screw you take a look at this next card. Take out 4x Agent of Erebos
2x Fate Unraveler~ Great for just slowly taking away life from an opponent but combined with Master of the Feast it becomes powerful. Take out 2x Squelching Leeches
1x Indulgent Tormentor~ This just cuts down on creatures opponents control and just starts smashing I love it. But only one because Archfiend of Depravity cleans house. Take out Erebos, God of the Dead
14 cards is all I need for the sideboard
END~
Again guys thanks for checking this out I will be going to some FNM soon to test out! Leave some feedback please!
