This is sexy. I like this.

It's been a while since I've seen a good mono black.

Thanks, I've played against a lot of good grave born decks so I wanted to try to build my own.

I am slightly surprised that so many experienced players like this build. Is there something I put in but didn't realize? Or is it just good for getting fatties in the graveyard, then bringing them out?

There's just a lot of synergy...terrestadon with flashback burried alive...sheoldred...it that betrays...and other stuff. :p

I know it is budget, but I think if there is one expebsive card to get 4 of (or even 2 of) it is {Entomb}. Reanimate is like throwing pebbles in your opponent's eyes, but reanimate with entomb is like taking a giant s--- on their face!

If you can't get any entombs, get {Crystal Vein}. It is a good substitute for speed because it lets you get more mana by sacing it.

Take a look at my "I Spit on Your Graveborn" deck posted a few weeks ago. It absolutely rocks, very similar to what you have here but I may have the edge in speed, not much of one for sure. I have life gain in mine if needed.

You should do very well with your deck

I think {Malfegor} is a brilliant inclusion and I think I'm gonna work him into mine

Thank you. I am going to take it to a legacy tournament pretty soon if I have time.
