This is a budget tribal assassin deck I just threw together over the past few days. I have lately been getting crushed by almost any deck in my playgroup so I decided to try something different. I think assassins would be fun, but it needs to be functional to. I am also open to other deck ideas.
The only trouble I see you having is against black. You need to consider replacing your kill effects with non colour specific kill spells. Against any other colour this looks like a force to be reckoned with. But the non black specific kill spells/abilities look to be your Achilles heel.

Agree. Try {go for the throat} or {tragic slip} maybe.
I think {Tragic Slip} would be very good. I can't believe I left it out. I'll probably end up losing a doom blade and a hideous end and add two, or rewire it to get them in, but they should be affective. Thanks for the help!
Ok so I took out a {Doom Blade} a {Hideous End} and a {Swiftfoot Boots} and added three {Go for the Throat}. I also side boarded {Call to the Netherworld} and in its place put {Scarblade Elite}, in the thinking that if I will be exiling my creatures, there is not a large amount of sense to be made in bringing them back. What does everyone else think?
