Nice. I have a good chunk of this, minus two of the {crypt ghast}s. Might go mono and try it this Friday for something unexpected.

It is extremely fun when you can get  {Crypt Ghast} and  {Heartless Summoning} out at the same time

I might put in {overgrown tomb} and {watery grave} to throw people off. That's always fun.

Adding  {Blood Crypt} and  {Overgrown Tomb} for  {Kessig Wolf Run} travis woo style

That would be gnarly with {crypt ghast} and all those flyers.

This is incredibly similar to my mono black heartless build.

I found that  {Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis} is not as good as  {Reaper from the Abyss} and  {Harvester of Souls}

What about {lord of the void}?

He will probably replace  {Griselbrand} when he rotates for the big drop, but he's really not quite good enough. (In comparison anyway) I'd rather just have another g-bomb in there.

Unless you can give it haste {Fervor} with shocklands? Or {Akroma's Memorial}? He doesn't make a big enough impact on the turn he hits play. Allowing for a sorcery speed removal opportunity before you get to use him.

 {Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis} is insane he makes them sack a dude so he is removal on a stick who can make the  {Heartless Summoning}s -1/-1 go away so you can get full value out of something like a  {Griselbrand} plus he can activate  {Tragic Slip}  {Reaper from the Abyss} is situation and doesnt beat hexproof and  {Harvester of Souls} goes well with  {Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis}
