Notes:
Building this finally, wondering if anyone has an idea of what I can work into this, or it's good.

Mattacheu

See what you guys think of this. Thrown together in like....20 minutes while eating breakfast. Friends challenged me to make a tribal, and this popped up.

Maybe some black ramp cards.... Guys help me out?

Mattacheu

If it helps any, crypt ghast and lili both ramp for me, just in small amounts. If I can get her ultimate, I should be good

Problem is you won't get her ultimate knowing the modern format. I recommend you play some more removal. Like {Hero's Downfall} or {Murder}. Or maybe some edict cards. Like {Tribute to hunger}. Also run {Inquisition of Kozilek} or {Thoughtsieze}. If you can't afford those go {Duress}. More options would be {Damnation} or to turn this into a Reanimator deck.

Mattacheu

Threw in tribute. Also, I remember that heartless summoning is in there, which helps with the ramp as well.

Why Urborg in monoblack? Also, {Mutavault} maybe.

Why bother with urborg if all the other lands are swamps?

Edit: Ok I guess swamp walk with sheoldred.

I thought most demon decks use a bunch of   {Shadowborn Apostle}'s and four demons since they can just search for them. But no idea if that will be any good in modern.

Mattacheu

I thought about it, but one {surgical extraction}, and the entire deck is screwed over. This way, if I lose a creature, it's not the end of the world.
