Aggressive Mono Black. Speedy and deadly for casual fun. And as a sub $200 deck for MTGO it is a good deck for the "Just For Fun" room that can go up against the $1000+ decks without feeling hopeless.

Main board selection, and play tips

Bloodsoaked Champion
Gravecrawler
Bloodghast
Geralf's Messenger
These are the most resilient, speedy attackers Mono Black has to offer. They will do the heavy lifting until the deck changes gears to the mid/late game state.

Gatekeeper of Malakir
Dark Confidant
Phyrexian Arena
Card advantage. Dark Confidant and Phyrexian Arena are two of the best card drawing permanents in Modern. Gatekeeper of Malakir also adds to card value, and acts as a good body for Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx devotion.

Consume Spirit
Gray Merchant of Asphodel
Your late game finishers. Hopefully you have done about 10 damage, so these cards can close the game for you. With Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and creatures that won't crumble after a board wipe, you should have enough devotion mana to cast these as needed.

This deck is very straight forward and extremely fun to break out for quick games. There aren't too many decks that would auto win against this deck, since graveyard hate is usually relegated to the sideboard, and this is a casual, no sideboard deck. Great fun online.
