Ohh srry tapped out is saying my pauper deck (witch includes invigorate) is legal for some reason. I was unaware. So in that case some replacement cards are in need for my deck :( Any suggestions.

Oooh Death Denied seems like a good idea.
I slapped together a pauper infect list myself, and i am going to have to steal Death Denied from ya. That card looks like it swings games.
Here it is if anyone has any pointers pauper Infect

Hello. I run a deck Mono black infect budget and I found after some rather intense testing that Disfigure is superior to Virulent Wound try some testing with it and tell me what you think

Disfigure is MUCH better, and has lived in the sideboard for this deck before. I like Virulent Wound for the extra poison counter. That one can make all the difference.

Thank you catpuaz! I've actually made some changes to the deck and sideboard to fit a bit better, and to welcome some nice Kaladesh additions.
I'll try to update it here soon!

How does Rush Of Vanity, Ornamental Courage, and Death Denied work in testing?

Pinkie_Satanas, it's done well in tournament style play, with a weakness to burn decks, though I need to aggressively mulligan sometimes to get the lands and creatures I need for a quick win.
catpuaz I have really enjoyed Rush of Vitality, both offensively (indestructible lifelink trample infect? Yes, please.) and defensively (saves from Electrickery and similar hexproof attacks.) The singleton Death Denied is a good surprise for my opponent, and Ornamental Courage gives me a defender option that I was previously lacking, that has let me swing with all with less risk.

Abundant growth is not a replacement for wild growth. Abundant growth still adds one mana, just of any color. If you read it will state "tap: add one mana of any color". Adding mana with a land also requires you to tap.

Is this the most optimized you think you can make this deck right now or are you restricting yourself to a certain budget?
Is you are restricted by budget, how might you change this deck if you didn't have such restrictions?
What are the most common decks you face in Pauper? How to compare to each?

I don't mind if you use this deck at all, iAzire!
I'm always happy to hear what other people's experiences are playing with this.
And while Liscom has it right about Thoughtseize and rarity, and the caution you need to exercise when making Pauper decks (see my above conversation about Rancor for a more in-depth explanation.) I would honestly caution against ANY card in this deck that has life-cost.
This deck runs very little in the way of defense, and has little staying power on the creatures. The win comes from hitting hard, fast, and pumping something small into causing a sudden (and horrible) 5 to 7 poison counters in one attack, and then letting Virulent Wound and Grim Affliction take care of the rest.
I've run this before using things like Apostle's Blessing and I can tell you those 2 life cost more than you think. If you do add something with life as a cost, I would advise putting in something with lifegain, like Eternal Thirst or something similar, to offset the cost and add some staying power.
Let me know how it plays out for you!
