Just Plain Fun!

Bloodgift Demon gives me a stable flyer for 5 mana and keeps giving me fodder to abuse with my ramp or to compensate for lacktherof.

Desecration Demon Solid flyer, controls field presence, stalls, can solo people's life. All around awesome.

Deathrite Shaman Gives me a life buffer, kills my opponent fairly quickly, can be used to get a specific colored mana for Kessig Wolf Run if the deck is being mean.

Kessig Wolf Run Win Con, dear god, mana outlet....deathtouch trample...lifelink....imagination is my only limitation

Vampire NighthawkDeathtouch, lifelink, flying....pairs well with liliana and stalls the board nicely

Liliana of the Veil .....don't really need to explain her.....fine. She continues my card advantage, she kills upon entering, she kills hexproof, her ult is ridiculous....and why the hell not lol

Dreadbore and Putrefy, guaranteed kill cards, why did they give this to jund!?.

Master of Cruelties Potential win con, or acts like Desecration Demon, or defends like a boss. Definitely want to play him because he fits the "tempo" of this deck well.

Staff of Nin card advantage, timely ping....just wonderful

Typhoid Rats and Wasteland Viper stop the board dead (alongside tempo and etc) just long enough for me to gain the upper hand, usually around turn 4 or so.

Underworld Connections added over Sign in Blood because the 2 life ended up being more than i could handle later in the game...UC gives me card flow when i need it and isn't too debilitating.

SIDEBOARD (NEEDS WORK) :

Sire Of Insanity, Underworld Connections, Staff of Nin, Demonic Rising Turn the game into a topdeck war in which I have the upper hand. Very useful against control and superfriends.

Mutilate for tokens, aggro, midrange...just about anything i cant handle with my set kill spells.

Crypt Incursion usually 8-15 life for 3 mana....destroys reanimator....all around great card.

Slaughter Games duh

Sever the Bloodline for Falkenrath Aristocrat and other pesky children.

Comments VERY welcome and appreciated, wanna keep this primarily black though. The other colors were added to protect me from enchant decks and give me outlets for mana.
