This is my black/white blink/bounce deck. I got the idea after making a bant flicker deck and remembering gary... This deck was made to abuse ETB effects, but the primary win-con is to utilize Gray Merchant of Asphodel. There's also Abhorrent Overlord to flood the board with tokens, Gonti, Lord of Luxury and Puppeteer Clique to use other people's cards, Pontiff of Blight to give your other creatures extort and drain your opponents' life that way, and Grave Titan, Rune-Scarred Demon, and Shadowborn Demon for beat-down. There's cards like Gravedigger, Beacon of Unrest and Infernal Offering to recycle gary if it dies or gets removed too. This deck is intended to be more of a budget alternative... hence why I didn't include expensive lands.
Thanks to the both of you for commenting and thanks for the advice!
Prid3, I tried out both of the decks and I especially liked the Nykthos Black build, but I was wondering why you didn't include any Exsanguinates, Mind Stones, or Worn Powerstones? Wouldn't those two artifacts be safer to play than Crypt Ghast? Would Mind Stone/Worn Powerstone + Exsanguinate + Bosium Strip work in a Nykthos Black deck, or is it better to use those cards in MBC? Also I was wondering why you put the Nantuko Shades and the Vampire Hexmage into the Nykthos Black deck?
Hey guys, I just got done looking at Cz's guide to black multiplayer decks. I made a rough draft of the deck, and right now I'm just having an extremely hard time figuring out what cards to get rid of, what to add, and how to improve it. I was wondering if I could have some help? I would like the deck to be 60 cards, unless in muliplayer it's okay to go above 60 (I'm new to the format). Currently there are 67 cards (not including the side board).
Here's the deck. I was wondering what sort of potential people thought this deck had compared to Roon of the Hidden Realm and Norin the Wary decks.
