Here's a build for a Mono-Black deck I've been working on. I've done some testing with it, and it is viable in the current Modern format. It's fun to play, strong in the early, mid, and late game, curves out well, and is relatively inexpensive compared to the other well-known decks in the format. The deck works by controlling the early game with creature and hand removal spells, then gets more aggressive with creatures and Lashwrithe in the midgame. In the late game, a hand removal spell followed by a Skithiryx makes for a reliable finisher. It draws fairly consistently, and has some key support cards in the maindeck that help against most decks in the format by way of Spellskite, and Surgical Extraction.
