Black is the color about ambition and success at all costs.

This is my take on mono black.

Ayara is just a cool card. She lends herself to the typical drain but she enables lifegain, tokens, and reanimator. She doesn't eat removal like other commanders do but then you cast Army of the Damned with Pitiless Plunderer, Ayara, First of Locthwain, Carrion Feeder and suddenly the deck is not fun to play against anymore.
