Post-Born Standard Mono-Black
« on: February 06, 2014, 12:27:20 AM »
Thoughts? To simple? Did I miss something?

Figured this was a good place to start:

18 Swamp
4 Mutavault
1 Temple of Silence
3 Temple of Deceit
=26

4 Pack Rat
4 Nightveil Specter
4 Desecration Demon
4 Grey Merchant
=16

4 Thoughtseize
4 Underworld Connections
2 Pharika's Cure
4 Bile Blight
4 Hero's Downfall
=18

Sideboard:
2 Drown in Sorrow
2 Erebos, God
3 Lifebane Zombie
3 Dark Betrayal
2 Doom Blade
3 Duress

I might change your spells to this:

4 Thoughtseize
4 Underworld Connections
4 Devour Flesh
2 Bile Blight
4 Hero's Downfall

i wanted the devour flesh as I think you might see a large number or G/r or G/u devotion and RG Monsters, and a slight decrease in the amount of mutavaults played.

That change is the only difference between your list and my initial list, though I do need to play test it more.

Yup. Bile Blight is the real deal, for sure.

Not sure how I feel about Ultimate Price though. The metagame at large hasn't changed in such a way that I'd like it over Devour Flesh.

After testing more I went back to devour flesh; as i lost 5 games straight to a resolved blood baron.
