Night of infamy is a must for main board
Has it been tested it working well?
Don't have all of the cards yet but it is made as closely as possible. Will be playing by Wednesday and getting some cards to bring it closer to design.
Take out the rings, put in some Dark Favors and some predator's gambit. The +2/+1 and itimidate is enough to lock down a game decently fast. Get out some duty bounds and a servant with that enchantment. And it's already 7 unavoidable against a non black.
I was thinking of adding some {dark favors} so may do that. {Predator's gambit} is out though as it needs no other creatures under your control to have intimidate.
May drop the grimaces for the favors. Nearly same purpose with bonus counters.
Instead of the specters or trep blade id throw in vampire nocturnus. If you have any. Both duskmantle and nighthawk would benefit.
Edit: sorry i didnt see you werent running {Duskmantle prowler} nvm that.

Agree, the rings are only really good in draft. In standard they are not very good.
