Personally, I'd throw Pharika's Cure into the sideboard for some mainboard Risen Executioner. He's like more marauders!

I really dont understand the appeal for Risen Executioner without more zombies to pump

Yeah I agree Kassill im also not sure if it will be fast enough with all the one drop burn spells now but hopefully it will still provide a challenge

I didn't mean to say risen executioner. My bad. Correction, Merciless Executioner
July 19, 2015 11:47 p.m.
Yeah I think it would I have been thinking about swapping out touch of moonglove for it

Cool to see a purely black aggro deck as opposed to those red ones, the slighter red ones, and the very red ones :)
Any particular reason why you leave Master of the Feast out of the sideboard? Against mana greed decks, I have found him extremely potent, since the extra card advantage does not aid them too much if they are creature heavy without flying and low on removal. That and 4x Duress appear as being good sideboard options
Also, do you not have the extra Hero's Downfall as you only run a single?
Cool deck :D

sadly I only own one copy of hero's downfall and I have never had to sideboard yet but I believe master of the feast could be a good sideboard card if mixed with marauder and thanks red aggro decks are the only ones that give this deck a challenge

I was just tapping through the Tarkir cards and perhaps found some suggestions to help your lack of reach (I suspect the match is de facto over whenever your opponent actually manages to establish some sweepers or simply enough potent blockers, although they most likely will be on a amount of life):
I also ran into a potential way for you to have increased damage and just gain draws; Infernal Scarring
PS: I have no clue whether these are good options for the deck, I have never played mono-black aggro
July 30, 2015 6:27 a.m.
some decks do run foul-tounge shriek and silumgar assassin ultimate price is a good card but infernal scarring would slow the deck down and not necessarily as just from me declaring attackers they have lost life thanks to Spiteful Returned and Mardu Shadowspear also as you noticed with bloodsoaked champion and moonglove the deck gets round superfog decks (decks that prevent combat damage and mill you)
