Replacing Virulent Wound..
Deck Help forum

Infectious P.C.PHere's an Dimir infect deck that I've been tweaking and perfecting for a few months now, and I'm pretty happy with it, the only exception is with Virulent Wound.. On one hand, it seems like a no-brainer for an infect deck, as it works great as a quick 1-cost FU.. But on the other hand (in practice), if a creature has anything over 1 toughness, then it is rendered almost absolutely useless..
But of course it would be borderline retarded to run a black deck without some kind of creature removal, but the question is, which one?? I've been strongly considering either Dismember or Go for the Throat (especially since I already own these cards.. :P) but I know there are also a lot of other great options available for Legacy play..
Decisions... Decisions...
Victim of Night, Tragic Slip, Grasp of Darkness, all can be used as good removal spells.

Grim Affliction is not as cheap but probably more effective in practice. Dismember and Go for the Throat are good ideas. Other options could be Doom Blade, Ultimate Price, and Devour Flesh (who cares if they gain the life if you're killing them with infect)
