How many nonbasic mana would you suggest I run mono black infect and was thinking of running

4 {cavern of souls}
4 {inkmoth nexus}

And maybe 12 swamps
Considering {cathedral of war} also

Cmc is all 1, 2 cost and some 0 cost

Vileo

If you're running infect, I don't suggest 4x caverns. 3x maybe. I run 2x in my mono white Knights deck, but it's creature heavy anyway.But I think that's your max on nonbasics.
Edit: I mean I think that's your max on lands that don't make {B}. Nonbasics are fine otherwise.

DirtyMustachio

Yeah I'm only going to run 8 creatures excluding inkmoths.

So maybe 2 caverns, 2 cathedral?

Vileo

Inkmoth is still really good. I'd run 3x Inkmoth over 2x Cathedral.

Infect needs 4x inkmoth. No reason to not run the 4.

DirtyMustachio

No no of course I'm maxing inkmoth.I just didnt want to use.to mant non basics

Vileo

Inkmoth and Cavern should be all you're running then. If you run any more, you're going to loathe the colorless lands hand. Even as-is it'll show up occasionally.

DirtyMustachio

Thanks.guys so maybe
4 ink
3 cavern
2 cathedral

Vileo

If you really want to run Cathedral, be my guest. Your deck. My opinion is it's just too many colorless lands.

DirtyMustachio

No your right.
8 mana
Of 22? Sound right?
