Black control. Start of with hand disruption a la Thoughtseize/Lifebane Zombie, etc. and threat removal such as Doom Blade, Ultimate Price, Devour Flesh, etc. Then play Erebos and his whip to reanimate cards such as Shadowborn Demon for spot removal and 5 life. Overrun them with power or and lifegain, or just kill all their creatures and have them rage.

I'm considering adding Tormented Hero/Agent of the Fates, the only problem is that black lacks good Heroic activators (mostly for Agent of the Fates). Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
