I've experimented with many Mono Black Devotion variants, including splashing for green and white, but my current version uses red to achieve more reach and flexibility.

Kolaghan's Command is pure value and gives the deck a way to deal with pesky artifacts.

Counterbore is important in my meta because Planeswalkers are common and need to be dealt with quickly.

Relic of Progenitus is in the maindeck for a meta full of graveyard decks. The built-in card draw is always helpful, too.

Lastly, this deck runs Blood Moon. I have one in the mainboard for the occasional easy win, but no more because otherwise my small repeat player group will exile me. The mainboard could even fit in one or two more, depending on your own preference.
