I love this deck. Efficient and effective.

The deck is pretty awesome, Have you considered card:Wit's End? I realize it's expensive, but it's probably one of the best cards you could add.

needs Hymn to Tourach and Megrim

or Bloodchief Ascension and Mindcrank

No it doesn't, Jaya. Playtest it first and then make an appropriate suggestion, don't throw random card at us. Also, card:Wit's End's CMC is 7... way too far from the planned mana-curve (also, the main idea is to keep your opponent with 1 or 2 cards in hand at the most).

I'll grant Blood/crank as random, but Megrim is more reliable than either of the other 2 enchantments and was a part of a discard deck with card:Liliana's Caress when they were in standard together, and Hymn to Tourach is one of the strongest discard sorceries ever printed, hardly random choices. Besides these are suggestion based on a my knowledge of the particular deck archetype, not really my job to play-test things for you. I'd greatly rather you not be so condescending when responding to people's suggests, how about telling me why you out right dismiss my suggest, thoroughly explain your rationale not be so high and mighty about it. If you didn't want people's input don't bloody post your decks.

sweet. maybe Chainer, Dementia Master ?

what about Dark Ritual . it will help you get more cards out of your opponents hands earlier. and btw card:Wit's End is way too expensive. by the time somebody can play it their opponent will have barely any cards in hand

It's just brutal, if u get a Liliana's Caress and a Quest for the Nihil Stone in game, they will beg for mercy

I like this deck, +1!

I answer to our "brainstorming" under my The BIG DISCARD! ; )

IMO, the psychological effect of the Quest for the Nihil Stone is better than Shrieking Affliction

Quest for Nihil Stone is better than Painful Quandry, in my opinion. Also, would you consider playing Sign in Blood to grab more cards? It could also finish as a burn spell.

Better than Quandry? are u insane? it's the most brutal enchantment on this deck!

In terms of size, though, it loses a lot of usefulness at 5 mana.

It's a finisher, nothing more, nothing less. When it strikes the battlefield, and Shrieking Affliction or card:Liliana's Caress are already there, the opponent can't play anything without losing lives. That's the trick... and by T5 or T6, he won't have many cards in hand, nor lives. I have so few ways to protect myself here, that I can't really afford to lose 2 lives with Sign in Blood , although it is indeed tempting sometimes.

It seems you would run out of cards eventually without a steady draw machine. Perhaps find a slot for the Oh-so-expensive but the oh-so-good Dark Confidant?

Oh also: Thoughtseize

Thoughtseize is too expensive

Dream Salvage maybe?

IMO, Guul Draz Specter is a useless card. Expensive, it can only possibly cause a discard on the turn after it is played. Although it gets stronger, basically only on your turn as you have no option to discard on their turn (save for Painful Quandary ), It can't defend against a good flyer that they manage to cheat out somehow. card:Liliana's Specter is better. Still chump-block's for the same power, cheaper, basically guarateed to cause discard, and you can rely on Painful Quandary and Shrieking Affliction to be your finishers.

Disagree with me, you may. But I stand by my arguments.

dude you need to overhaul the WHOLE THING

Actually, nope. This plays itself so fast, almost no threat can go to the battlefield (without the restrictions of Despise & Duress . Unless you play it, you can't say it doesn't work. And Guul Draz Specter x2 is enough of a threat when it hits play. card:Liliana's Specter is too weak, you sneeze on it and it dies. But thanks you for posting.

Liliana of the Veil and Thoughtseize are great, I know they're expensive, but this is an expensive hobby.

Have you considered Ravenous Rats ?

Maybe a couple Shimian Specter s? It would change the mana-curve, but it's a dang good card.
