So this is my current build, wondering about possible ravenous rats or sign in blood, no 1 drop main so kinda wondering what to put in (innocent blood possibly), any help would be greatly appreciated.
Duress is better then distress, sure. But just because the number of storm decks / especially temporal fissure based ones, its handy to have the distriss at least as sideboard material. It can hit crucial cards like: nightscape familiar, sunscape familiar, cloud of faeries. Mono Black Control has the potential to be a top pauper deck...definetely.
Seems good all the way however running 4x diabolic edict in place of 4x disfigure would be more beneficial. You already run befoul, doom blade, tendrils of corruption SB, however none of this can handle shroud. Edict can. cheers
To handle shroud and other types of protection i use Crypt Rats; eddict is to random when opponent can choose what to sac.
Not that i don't like the idea of eddict, but i preffer not leaving anything at random

I'm seeing a few of you playing Twisted Abomination and I was wondering is there any farther use for it beside the (I'm assuming) swampcycling? I would imagine there could be something more useful put into that spot instead.
It killed combo decks from the disruption, and could out race most other aggro decks due to its low cc cost and the land destruction. If you can snag sinkholes, they can easily be switched out for typical kill creature cards.
With the low curve this deck has it might be worth it to cut the land down more for more disruption.

Are you usually near death versus other aggro decks? Seems like land destruction and discard are your only ways to fend of there creatures since most of yours can't block or help kill you. Its kind of more like suicide black.
Hmm i thought the only thing it banned was cranial plating. Must have had new changes.
You thought right. The other cards were never printed on MTGO as commons. Kind of the difference in Vintage(Paper) vs Classic(MTGO). If you don't have an MTGO account you can either ask or check to see if and what it was printed at on MTGOTraders.Com. They seem to have most if not all images of mtgo cards on there.

Maybe not a 4 of, but having atleast 2 means you always have a Gravedigger. I have heard that virtual card advantage is good...
Remember this it the MTGO section so Hymn to Tourach and Sinkhole isn't legal. I would recommend Icequake and Wrench Mind as replacements
