You pretty much need Desecration Demon , and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx . It would also do you some good to have Ultimate Price .

Hey no problem :) I am still learning the correct ways of doing things on this site and it takes some practice. I ran mono black in standard and now I am running it in modern as well.

okay so i updated my deck and put up for some expensive cards,took away -4 Rakdos Shred-Freak
and put all of The doctors recommendations, however the deck feels a lil clunky.well Reallly clunky. without the smaller cheaper creatures the beginning of the game is been really slow for me. all i didnt add where the two Mutavault do they really make that much a difference...?

The early stages of the game are always slow unless you get Pack Rat out. That's why the deck has so many kill spells in it. I can post my variation of mono-black if you'd like.

Last FNM i played my MBD at my lgs against a Gruul deck (with mana screw at this game)
Had a game with: (In my hand 2x Swamp 1x Thoughtseize 2x Mutavault 1x Pack Rat 1x Bile Blight )
Turn 1 Swamp + Thoughtseize
Turn 2 Swamp + Pack Rat (from my hand).
Turn 3 Mutavault + an other Pack Rat (from my draw step).
Turn 4 Mutavault + an other Pack Rat (from my draw step).
Turn 5 Bile Blight (killed the potential blockers) + an other Pack Rat (from my draw step).
Game over, top decked, great game. Lol.
