Mono-black Devotion (Standard MTG Deck)

The idea is to try and get a bunch of devotion and smash your opponent in the face with Gray Merchant of Asphodel. And then hopefully sac' him with the Bubbling Cauldren to be reanimated with the whip.

I have festering newt to stop early attackers and Bubbling Cauldren to take advantage of the newts as well as having a sac source. The Pack Rat is there to discard cards so that they can add power to Nighthowler, give the Whip things to reanimate and create a threat if not dealt with quickly.

With strong devotion to black I can also use the Shrine to Nyx effectively. Though it would be nice to have something to dump all that mana into if need be.

Not sure about the sideboard atm, Lifebane Zombie seems a must and maybe some more removal?
