Goes from 8rack to infect after side

Ok, so this is an idea i have had for awhile now, due to the fact that i saw a mono black infect that's list was really similar to a 8rack deck i was running.

---

This is a Transformation Deck.

---

The point of a transformation deck is for the sideboard to completely change the way the deck runs to prevent the opponents sideboard from mattering.

So this is at its core an 8 Rack build which by all rights is a really tough match for most decks game one.

---

The Transformation and why to Transform.

---

8 Racks weakness comes in game 2 and game 3 where the opponents sideboard easily shuts down the 8 Rack. Whether it be with Chalice of the Void or with Leyline of Sanctity or simply destroying your Ensnaring Bridge and hammering in at you.

So how do you stop this from happening?

Game 2 or (3 depending on how the first game went) you would side out your Ensnaring Bridge, The Rack and Mutavault for Inkmoth Nexus, Phyrexian Crusader, and Phyrexian Vatmother .

Then this deck becomes Mono-Black Infect. Which really screws with your opponent because they will sideboard with the thought that you are still playing 8-rack and over extend themselves just to stop the rack and leave themselves wide open for an Infection.

Budgeting

---

Liliana of the Veil Can be replaced with Necrogen Mists for similar effects

Ensnaring Bridge can be replaced by adding an aditional package of removal (Fatal Push, Dismember, Go for the Throat)
