Personally i really like  {Exquisite Blood}, so if this was mine i'd drop one  {Sign in Blood} and throw one more in to make 3/3. Increases the odds of landing the infinite combo.

[Slenderbro]

Also, give thought to  {Crypt Ghast}. Wonderful card in any matchup.

[All-Mana Mania]

I agree and disagree with slenderbro. Although it evens the odds of the infinite combo, sign in blood gets you a really good card advantage. So i say keep the sign in bloods and test it. Test slenderbros idea also, sounds good but I personally like sign in blood better

And if nothing, then sideboard.

Yes, i 100% agree. +1

Roger that! I will try both routes and let you know how they test. I was also thinking of throwing {crypt ghast} in there for a huge debt, just not sure what would be good to remove for him.

[All-Mana Mania]

I say 2 vizkopa guildmages.

[That_Guy]

Definitely not the guildmage, take out 2 high priest.

[Bookmeister]

{Cryptgast} will make it easier to cast {Griselbrand}.

[Slenderbro]

Crypt ghast is black's ramp. I find it essential in anything that's bw. Think of it like an arbor elf, absolutely necessary in a good mono green, as crypt ghast is to black.

[All-Mana Mania]

2 guildmages because they are better as a 2 of, not a 4 of. Keep high priests because they can kill there bombs simply by attacking.

Instead of 2 of your guildmages, I recomend trying out {Chalice of Life}. It's great as a wincon, especially since you have rhox faithmender. In fact, I might even test it as a 3 or 4-of.

Forgot about that, yesssssss totally agree. It's fantastic with extort-oriented creature bases.

Ya know I've had the chalices and elixirs bouncing around my make-shift sideboard since I put this together, good advice, time to give 'em a try! Only thing is without the guildmages, I feel their would be more profitable cards than {exquisite blood} to run, suggestions or opinions?
