This is a B/G brew I'm trying to tune for this week's FNM.
The deck uses a Mono Black Aggro shell and splashes green for Abrupt Decay and Golgari Charm.
Here is a quick rundown of the list:
Creatures
1-drops
Tormented Hero
Gnarled Scarhide
Rakdos Cackler
Wasteland Viper
: Your 1-drop Creature Suite. Having access to green allows us to run Wasteland Viper. This is a nice card that lets us push through problem creatures like Courser of Kruphix or Sylvan Caryatid and also lets us use our Thoughtseize more meaningfully. It can also block Blood Baron of Vizkopa, oddly enough.
2-drops
Pain Seer
: In this deck, the idea is that you're almost never flipping more than 2 cmc cards. Especially since we're usually wanting to play out our shocks, thoughtseizes, and mana confluence, the extra health is going to matter.
Spiteful Returned
: great card that can just provide so much extra reach.. We run 4 golgari charms and wasteland vipers which means that running this out on turn 2 is ideal.
3-drops
Mogis's Marauder
: Alpha strike champion of the world
Non-Creature Spells
Bile Blight
: One of the strongest removal spells in the format.
Doom Blade : Efficient and quick 2-drop removal.
Abrupt Decay : Even more efficient 2-drop removal that hits many key non-creature permanents.
Golgari Charm : Protect your creatures, or remove an enchantment. Man it's really weird that every other charm has 3 modes, but this one only has 2!
Thoughtseize : Seems like an okay card.
+1 and comments appreciated greatly!
