Title: What are some good black/greed draw spells?
Post by: PhilE on August 10, 2012, 09:21:04 AM
What are some good black/greed draw spells? I'm wondering for a new deck.

Thanks!

If you are using token creatures, those with undying or like {Resembling Skeleton} then I would suggest {Alter's Reap} in {B}. There are not a lot of {G} draw that I am aware of outside if {Harmonize} or maybe {Sylvan Library}.

Also in {B}:

{Sign in Blood}
{Diabolic Tutor}
{Demoinc Tutor}

Thanks for the ideas. Te only problem is its mostly green with a splash of black so I wanted to stay away from the double black mana. Would it be dumb to play something like {{abundant growth}} just for the draw ability?

I play {Abundant Growth} for the ability.

This is my least favorite card in a long long time. The cost, the resource removal, and worst of all...the land taps.

It'd be tolerable if it didn't. You figure {Parallel Lives} and {Endless Ranks of the Dead} had designed synergies maybe? I guess 4 mana for a card isnt enough, the land has to tap for its ability.
