Mono Black Control

I know right now tragic slip is crap for this deck and what I play against but it is handy if I got 4 mana.

I want to replace the arena and something else for nights whisper or sign in blood.I need more draw.

Necropotence is well its a house, another reason why I added lashwrithe, excellent when on a nighhawk.

I would love more liliana and a urborg would be the best land to add but I shit you not they don't exist here(noone will get rid of there bobs either!!!) and I cant buy online.

So at this point I need something better than tragic slip and what to take out for 4 draw cards.

sure you dont want to swap a little black out to splash some blue draw power instead? works nice in a zombie deck i made.

I don't have the mana to support that. Look at my costs.

I am debating on just dropping the top and a duress for 3 sign in blood.

So after a lot of play testing I do not like this deck at all, on paper it looks fan fucking tastic, But Its stupidly inconstant.

I have the various som/core duels that I can use to make a jund deck. But no bob, no goyf, no BBE, and well nothing that can fill the slots except maybe skinshifter for a goyf replacement.

Other than the creature base I have quite a bit of the usual spells, I have hymn, bolts, terminate, I got some bop and grim lavamancer I can use with skinshifter, I got a few fetches but not sure if they would be worth it as i dont have any basic duals.

Thoughtseize comes to mind, if you can afford it. If not, Inquisition of Kozilek is just as good in some cases.

I have a bunch of som/core dual lands and I was thinking of turning this into some sort of jund deck but I have no...

But I do have

3 phyrexian arenas and a necropotence4 Skinshifternothing to fit this slotBirds

I have hymns, bolts, terminates, iok, name a spell I got a version of it for this deck, but lack the creature base.

AS for the lands I got 3 blackcleave cliffs, 3 dragonskull summit, 2 rootbound crag, 4 woodland cemetery, 1 sulfurous springs and a gemstone mine.Couple tec edges and various ghost quarters.

So I could do a makeshift mana base to make it more BR/g(for skinshifter).Any ideas on weather to keep it mono black or try to make a makeshift jund deck.

The deck as it sits is close to a top8 deck from a few months ago I forget who but he used 2 phyrexian arena and a couple creature difference with an urborg instead of cabal(which when I get it is nice).
