Lux Cannon for more artifact and enchantment hate. also a good combo you can use is Sheoldred, Whispering One and Abhorrent Overlord , sacrifice the demon itself for its effect and then return it to play thanks to sheoldred. youll have blockers/attackers every turn.

Nice build, +1 from me. Blightsteel Colossus and It that Betrays have CMC 12 though.

Lordoffuriness,

I just bought an Abhorrent Overlord , very nice combo and synergy with Sheoldred, Whispering One and all the other necro. Lux Cannon looks like fun, I'll be checking it out soon, thanks for the tip!

Chilbi,

Thanks for the +1, and I got the CMC's fixed! :D

+1 for a badass commander, including some of the coolest magic cards ever Draco and Hypnox takes serious balls but i think this deck has enough functionality to make it work

+1 for losing to this deck too many times

Have you ever thought of Haunted Crossroads ? It acts as a second Volrath's Stronghold .

Thanks, iceiceiceMTG and DSherwin

namesallgone, I used to run it, but it is a little slow and I don't want too much redundancy there.

One card I am seriously considering is Necropolis Regent
Swing for tons of damage with Volrath, and get that many counters added to his printed 6 damage, or just feed it to Volrath for that 6 CMC. Also works great with all of the big beaters in the deck. I just need to find a slot for it...

Looking into adding Sorin Markov

Hatred might also be coming back from an earlier build

+1 for the amount of work you've placed into this. Stealing some ideas for my Vela Evasion deck!

Thanks, sillystringsI hope you use what you've learned here to kill many things :)

il play with this on cockratice to see what it needs i like the idea =)

Cool! let me know what you think z2aaa :)

it has NOOOOOOO DRAW POWER OMG ITS REALLY SLOW TOO =/ and wheres the life gain from all the life lose? maby corrupt or a x spell to gain life

Sorry to hear that it didn't work out for you.

This deck has little trouble setting up to kill within five turns, so I'm not sure where the issue with speed came from. There should also be plenty of draw engines and tutors.

I hope you'll try it out some more and see what it can really do.

was it 1 vs 1 or multi?

I play tested this list on OCTGN i didn't really have any problems with draw power, maybe because my main EDH deck is mono black and i have no problem spending all my life to draw cards. Graveborn Muse and Phyrexian Arena are great card draw for only 1 life, Erebos, God of the Dead is an indestructible Greed and both go really well with Scroll Rack . low on cards then then tap sack a Snow-Covered Swamp with Lake of the Dead pay the 10 life for Greed draw 5 cards if you don't like them Scroll Rack for 5+ more cards. speed wise the games i played i was able to set up turn 5-6 kills most of the time, it really depends on the speed and type of the other decks you're playing against, is it the fastest no but its definitely not slow.

I'd suggest replacing your Expedition Map with a Wayfarer's Bauble , other than that this deck is pretty cool

Thanks, sonnet666 :D

The Expedition Map is mostly used to land tutor for utilities like Rogue's Passage , Hall of the Bandit Lord , or Winding Canyons

I can see how the Wayfarer's Bauble would add to the mana ramp though, and that's always a good thing! Thanks for suggesting it.

Baleful Force has a high CMC for discard and gives you card advantage should you opt to cast him.

Champion's Helm because hexproof is always nice.

Myr Battlesphere isn't a bad card to cast also with a high CMC.

And Sculpting Steel because you have some nice artifacts to copy.

Nice suggestions all around, Midwest

I especially like Baleful Force and think it will find its way into the main deck very soon! Thanks :)

Not a problem, glad to be of service.

Whip of Erebos in for Triassic Egg ?

The life gain from Whip of Erebos is very nice, but the "exile creature" clause is what caused it to be removed form an earlier build.

Triassic Egg works so well because it can hit hand and graveyard, and when it happens it will either be free or cost 3 colorless.

It's a good suggestion, and might find a place in a future build! :)

+1 just for using Volrath the Fallen . I'd give you another +1 for making the deck extremely awesome too. It's easy to see you put a lot of time into this, and I am totally blown away. I really can't think of any suggestions, are there any outstanding problems with the deck?
