I need help making a deck for my GF. She played my soul sister deck a bit but wants her own deck with creepy card. IE promo brain maggoit type creepy or really cool like Lilliana. She likes the way the demons and zombies look too. Can anyone help me think of some competitive budget decks with creepy/dark cards that can be competitive. I was thinking zombies or enchantment but not sure. If anyone has better ideas would be awesome
Ad Nauseam runs a lot of cards I would consider creepy, It's not super cheap but it is a good, competitive option.
Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure if combo like that would be the best for a new player. So far I like these below. What do you guys think about being competitive, or more suggestions.
Dredge does have some cool creepy stuff. I've never played it. Hard deck to learn for a new player on their first Deck? Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. Keep them coming
Well it's a different kind of Magic. There are some nuances like knowing when to draw from the top versus dredging and knowing how to sequence your plays so that your Prized Amalgams are able to attack the turn after they come into play. Shouldn't be that hard to pick up though, although I have never played the deck personally.

Sounds like it can be fun to learn but one of the harder decks to play. How is it without grave troll?
It's still pretty powerful, just less popular. I would argue that it's worth giving a try in the current meta since people might not be that prepared for it.

I run a version of the mono black panharmonicon, and I honestly don't think it would be very fun for a new player. It is essentially a combo deck, as you are just looking to get a bit of black devotion on the field, a panharmonicon, and then you win when you cast Grey Merchant of Asphodel. That, or you lose. There is barely any interaction. Just my 2 cents!
Pack rat is a great creature in the deck because after so many discard spells your opponent has nothing left in hand so copying rats for dead discard cards is very efficient. necrogen mists some people like as a replacement for lily, I prefer the rat myself.
Budget~$100-150
C: Affinity, WUB: Esper Draw-Go
UR: Blood Moon Delver, UBR: Grixis Control/Delver
GWUR: Allies, UBR: Cruel Control
RGB: Living End, GWB: Wilt-Leaf Abzan
GU: Infect, GWR: Naya Liege
WU: Emeria Control

What would you sub for Lilly?

to budget Liliana you can go 2-2 split Necrogen Mist with that new 4cmc enchantment with similar effect
