I like how all the flavor texts are Liliana. Very cool!

I second Messenger. Blood Artist synnergises with killing Wave and Desecration demon well. Otherwise I'd run mutilate over killing Wave. Overall pretty solid.

Mutilate and Killing Wave are both in this

Definitely could use some Shrieking Affliction , and if only Megrim was standard, or Liliana's Caress too bad they aren't though.. Would you want Grave Betrayal in here?

Yea I might run it,but if I do id only run one copy. Very high cmc. But what do you think of all the Liliana cards and flavor texts?

I found it interesting, its a new concept to go around

April 17, 2013 12:54 a.m.

Very nice, I third the Shrieking Affliction and Blood Artist very solid deck.

This does look playable to me, though it's hard to tell without actually seeing it in action. A very fast aggro deck might be able to wipe you out, though. I second (third?) the Blood Artist thing; it's an amazing card when paired with Killing Wave .

If this is even remotely playable then it deserves even more praise because you were able to build a deck with flavor text as a parameter. I haven't seen that done before. +1 for that alone.

Alright due to it being suggested so many times Blood Artist is now added.

Thanks for the praise TzarChasm

You're welcome, and thanks for the feedback on my deck last night. (Which, by the way, has somewhere around a 70-75% win ratio online so far!)

wanna playtest vs mine?

Very neat! I love how everything really clicks with each other well, especially Lilliana. I'm a big fan of black. +1 from me

This is beautiful! However I couldn't pay with so few creatures. I see how it would work so flawlessly in this deck though.

If Geralf's Messenger doesn't do the trick, you might want to consider Vampire Nighthawk ....flying, lifelink, and deathtouch? Should be a rare. +1 =]

You may want to give yourself some kind of draw engine, to help counter-act Liliana of the Veil 's +1. Perhaps Underworld Connections , since Blood Artist helps counteract the loss of life. I've also had great success with the Staff of Win (Staff of Nin ) in my The Brutal but Brilliant, Bolas deck as a draw engine, so perhaps you could try that as well. Otherwise pretty cool deck! +1

Wow, this is my kind of deck! Looks like so much fun. +1

I don't really have any advice for it atm but I'll follow it.

Sorry but what is Undying Evil for? Geralf's Messenger already has undying and as soon as a +1/+1 counter is put on Desecration Demon it won't work on him either which only leaves your 2 Blood Artist .

How well does this work against esper control? It runs almost no creatures.

I like it all in all though. Heavy discard and sacing. +1

dbrannon says... #23

Itoshii what do you mean Undying Evil works on Desecration Demon .

I like how it's a Liliana flavoured text deck +1 for that alone and it looks fun to boot. Now have you considered dropping 1 Dark realms for 1 Liliana of the Veil ? Sign in Blood could help speed you along as well. The Staff of Nin is quite viable as well. If you're gonna SB in those Rakdos cards you need some Blood Crypt s and Dragonskull Summit s instead of relying on the keyrune. Diregraf Ghoul ?

Oh oh oh Griselbrand !!!!! After all she went to Innistrad to hunt the bloody demon in the first place and he's lethal and with a Lili emblem very easy to cast
