As a long time player of MBC it seemed only natural to play EDH with a MBC deck. I have tweaked and modified and added expensive stuff to the deck. It may not fit anyone else's play-style but fits mine perfectly. Blow up everything repeatedly, destroy your opponents' hands, then combo out with Rings of Brighthearth, Deserted Temple, and Cabal Coffers for an infinite mana Exsanguinate or just let Drana eat everything and beat face.
All is Dust -> Ugin the Spirit Dragon
Innocent Blood -> Fleshbag Marauder
Geth's Verdict -> Merciless Executioner
Diabolic Edict -> Tribute to Hunger
Syphon Mind -> Erebos, God of the Dead
Promise of Power -> Ob Nixilis Reignited
Thespian Stage -> Swamp
Solemn Simulacrum -> Thran Dynamo
Thran Dynamo -> Mana Crypt
Swamp -> Ancient Tomb
Diabolic Tutor-> Mastermind's Acquisition
Tribute to Hunger-> Vona's Hunger
Out:
Gilded Lotus
Sword of Feast and Famine
Beacon of Unrest
Profane Command
Mind Shatter
In:
Relic of Progenitus
Dark Ritual
Chrome Mox
Fortuitous Find
Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed
Updated list.
Anyone have thoughts on Damnable Pact? It seems tailor made for this deck as an X draw spell that I can tutor for with Shred Memory. I haven't gotten a chance to test it yet.
Edit: It's okay, not spectacular but good enough to play.
