Hello, I will be attending to a ptq this weekend, and I'm going to play my burn deck, the thing is I haven't played it for a while and I have a outdated list (br with deathrite shaman)
What would be a base decklist? preferably wbr, I expect mainly jund, junk, melira and kiki pod and american control, right now im testing with that list posted two pages ago that did 6-1 in a ptq.
Whenever someone plays this in my group, I encourage the rest of the players to search for a strip mine, so the player who casted temp with discovery ends up with the worst of the 4 lands he searches.
edit: this could be very bad if the player has life from the loam, but for some reason that card doesn't see much play in my group, excluding my own child of alara deck
Actually I dont get angry when I loose to bad luck, but I get really angry when I loose to a mistake, specially stupid mistakes.
Also, two days ago I was playing a new player draft on MTGO, and I got 15 lands out of 17 on 21 cards, the good thing is that my deck was awful and I would have lost anyways.
in the 1 spot I like birds of paradise and magus of the candelabra, maybe sylvan safekeeper if you are too commander dependant
at 2, rofellos and bloom tender are good, fa'adiyah seer could be good on intet (with top control and stuff), fauna shaman, hermit druid (!), lotus cobra, magus of the library, scavenging ooze, viridian zealot, vexing shusher,
on 3, courser of kruphix is good in intet, eternal witness, hua tuo, honored physician
on 4, gamekeeper, oracle of mul daya, polukranos, world eater, wickerbough elder,
5, skullmulcher, overbeing of myth, riku of two reflections
6, bane of progress, wort, the raidmother
didnt include most of the new cards, like prophet of kruphix, and sorry for not linking the cards, i need to sleep asap.

The first one was an rb aggro using black only as support because I had two flesh to dust and two accursed spirit and maybe something more I don't remember
The other decks was bg, and black was awesome because the deck was "hold-on-and-drop-bomb.dek", I had two typhoid rats, witch's familiar, flesh to dust, ulcerate, and the deck MVP Rotfeaster Maggot. My bombs where soul of innistrad, indulgent tormentor, soul of zendikar and Scuttling Doom Engine, pretty nasty.
So, in my opinion black is a great support color, but I think is hard to make it a main color because it doesn't have a obvious gameplan.

On two colors, you got great options on green/white with either captain sisay or saffi eriksdotter
also, izzet combo is doable, but melek, izzet paragon is 6cmc.
Another option is monoblack or Bx abusing cabal coffers, tutoring any two-card combo like mikaeus, the unhallowed and triskelion, how fast it is depends on how many tutors you run.
with a enemy creature in board, meekstone or brittle effigy, depending on the creature.
with an opposing planeswalker, same as empty board, not a lot of artifact against planeswalkers, except hex parasite and pyrite spellbomb but I dont play those cards
there are some specific cards depending on your deck, like expedition map or candelabra of tawnos

everlasting torment and stigma lasher are also $2+
