Since I started playing I have always been drawn to black and it has become my favorite color. So naturally I wanted to make a mono black deck and this is what I have come up with. It is an attrition styled control deck that attempts to win by depleting the opponent's resources and as a resulting leaving them with few answers to our threats. The deck is designed to use early game discard to eliminate most threats before they even have a chance to hit the board and then use our removal to handle threats that actually hit the board. We then use our resilient creature base to destroy our opponent. Any help on this deck would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for checking out my deck and if you like it please upvote!

Update: First FNM

round 1 against grixis delver I went 2-0, round 2 against grixis answers I went 2-0, round 3 I went 2-0 against through the breach/emrakul combo, round 4 I lost 0-2 against a BR agro deck.

This deck seems to struggle with heavy agro creature based decks. So far elves seem to be the worst match up.
