Pain Seer and Kiora's Follower competitive BUG brew

Deck Help forum

What kind of deck could work well with these 2, utilizing stuff like Vraska the Unseen and Abrupt Decay , possibly Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver and Whip of Erebos , depending how much devotion, Gray Merchant of Asphodel , can you guys help me brew?

Pain Seer and 5 drops don't really work together in the same deck. A BUG inspired aggro deck with a curve topping at 3 or 4 would work. You could run things like Siren of the Silent Song or possibly Servant of Tymaret for inspired, Hidden Strings to trigger, throw in some removal, walkers, and some more threats and you've got a pretty decent deck.

Alright, so no Vraska the Unseen . I was looking at the Whip of Erebos because of the lifelink, to return some life lost from Pain Seer . But then, are you saying no Gary? Also, would Desecration Demon be a good choice? And you said aggro, not midrange? Thanks for the suggestions so far

Whip of Erebos seems good for the lifelink to recoup life. Desecration Demon is pretty good, but I feel like there are better choices for the 4 drop slot like possibly Horizon Chimera to recoup life or Reaper of the Wilds , or Polukranos, World Eater to stall aggro. I'm not sure about Gary, it might be too hard to gather enough devotion to make it worth it and he is basically a Lava Axe on you if you get him with Pain Seer . And it could really go either way. I'm thinking a midrange deck with a low curve is probably better than aggro, since then you get things like Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver that wouldn't be very good in an aggro deck.
