iMtG Server: Gathering

Mono Black Humans 60 cards, 0 sideboard 23 {Swamp} 23 lands 4 {Tormented Hero} 4 {Thrill-Kill Assassin} 4 {Rakdos Shred-Freak} 2 {Pack Rat} 4 {Mogis's Marauder} 4 {Xathrid Necromancer} 2 {Agent of the Fates} 2 {Gray Merchant of Asphodel} 26 creatures 3 {Doom Blade} 2 {Devour Flesh} 3 {Dark Favor} 2 {Underworld Connections} 1 {Whip of Erebos} 11 other spells Sideboard

I like this deck a lot! Some suggestions:

Play a few mutavaults instead of swamps. They're humans too! And they're good even without that.

Add some more targeting spells for your own creatures for heroic.

Play more gray merchants. Even though it's not a human, that thing is REALLY good

Play 4 Gray merchants. So broken

You don't really get any bonus from tribal. I would try to hit a nitch like devotion

{Xathrid Necromancer} is why this deck is tribal.

I've been testing this deck a lot recently and I find that I get stuck on 4 mana a lot so that is why I cut gray merchant down to 2. I've slowly been cutting him back till I found a sweet spot for him. The real MVP of the deck is  {Mogis's Marauder} because it gives all my stuff evasion for a turn which can blow out an opponent real quick much like gray merchant does.

I completly agree with the mutavaults I just don't have the money for them right now. Also heroic is not really nesisary in this deck I just mostly like dark favors interaction with tormented hero. But if you can think of any other good cards to trigger heroic I'm open for suggestion.

Yeah, that makes sense. I also can't get them right now, and I need them for my decks. :(

I don't remember what the black target up to 2 creatures spell is, maybe that would be good? However I think it's +2/+2 and life link for 4 mana, so it's not so great. I can't think of any good heroic spells, but I'll post them if I think of some.

I would try and toss in some scry lands. Even though they come in tapped I like being able to dig a little for what I need. Also immortal servitude wouldn't be bad as like a 1 in the deck. Bring back everything post board wipe or  something. Just my opinion though.

That seems like more of a sideboard card because the only good board wipes are verdict and anger of the gods which only see play in a few decks. I'd its a good thought though.
