Pulling example 8-rack decks (or similar) I brewed a semi-budget deck that I used to have 15 years ago when I stopped playing. New cards have come and gone out of use and I wanted to bring my old deck back to life. One of the cornerstones of the old deck was Avatar of Woe as well as Duress. Cards like Diabolic Edict and Terror were staples as well and are now replaced by Doom Blade and Go for the Throat. Fatal Push and Dismember modernize the deck for the format and Shrieking Affliction affords an alternate win condition in case of lack of mana to summon Avatar or Grave Titan (or if they also don't appear).

Suggestions are appreciated.
