I started working on a Mono-Black Discard deck on MTGO these last few days.
The two most importante cards of the deck, with no doubt, are the ones who cause damage when the opp. has no more cards on his hand or when he discards a card. Of course, Shrieking Affliction, The Rack and Liliana's Caress, for example, are the best options here. Quest for the Nihil Stone is also a good card.
Since I wanted to creat a list that could be played in Legacy and Modern, I ended up with interesting card options: from Ravenous Rats to Gatekeeper of Malakir, using Bubbling Cauldron and Festering Newt for a long game, or Nezumi Shortfang and Cry of Contrition to abuse on the discard mechanics, there's a whole lotta of cool stuff to trip on, once you can stablish plans B, C and D to destroy yr opp., once he already has no cards on his hands.
That's the trick with a Discard deck, I guess: once the "discard" part is done, what's next? I mean, in case you can't find your Shrieking Affliction - what to do? Well, flying creatures are great, such as Oona's Prowler and Liliana's Specter. I didn't have money enough to buy Liliana of the Veil, so I'm working on a list with two Liliana Vess.
I also have one copy of Ensnaring Bridge, a gret card for almost any matchup. Other good card to help u grind yr opp.'s life? Underworld Dreams: it's working wonders against control decks.
Well, these are some thoughts on The Graveyard Club (my creation) deck I'm working on for Legacy and Modern in MTGO.
