Well, FNM went terrible ALL to the account of mana screw. Like, hardcore. 8 games. Flood, short, everything.

BUT the games where my mana was on, the deck was AMAZING. Like, brutal. Beat Fae. Beat some Bant deck. Nearly beat 5cc, but was manascrewed. Coulda beat Boat Brew, but was manascrewed. Lost to mono-green elves because of Mana Screw, 1 play error, and their REALLY good hands.

This deck has serisous potential. I will bring it tomorrow and just test it some.

EDIT: Makeshift Mannequin was amazing on ALL accounts. Brutal with Shriekmaw. Brutal with Fleshbag. Brutal with Stillmoon. Brutal with Demigod. Didn't get a hit on Oona or Urchins, but we'll wait and see with them.

I like the Urchins, but I might be taking them out for more removal. I'm thinking:

-3 urchins, +1 unmake, +2 Fleshbag

Sideboard:
-1 Fleshbag, +1 shriekmaw, bottle gnomes, dragger, or corrupt

Woah, Raedien, haven't seen you around for a long time (remember, Eclipse?)

Yea, I'll fix that. Lol, too many syphons.

Well in all fairness, Niche, what would you say if I posted this in your Demigod Black thread? We'd gone through that with other posters - and you know this. The cards may be similar, but the playstyle is totally off. Small changes like adding Stillmoons and Corrupts largely changes how the deck plays.

I feel that this playstyle is different, despite the similarities, and to keep the decklists focused, and spearate, we'll get more, better, and on-key suggestions.

Like I said earlier in the thread: Stick any name tag you want on this. But it is what it is, it plays how it plays, and my point is that it wins.


Now can we get off the "it's not MBC" bandwagon here? It's boring.


Its ok, you can call my by name. I know you despise me :D

Seriously though thank you for putting up a new MBC thread I guess. Ill make a list after I look over conflux, I had a few ideas that could work.

I know right? haha

I've been busy, I was playing MTG abroad in Korea while studying and now I'm in the thick of my graduating year. Conflux is pullin' me in ever so slightly though so here I am!

Well thank you! Ill put together a list later because I saw a few things I could totally abuse.

Really havnt went through conflux yet so Ill hold back my opinion on MBC until I really go over the list.

My list in the OP, and the card choices, is post conflux. Like how there is nothing from Conflux here yet? Cuz Conflux's black sucks except for Nyxie, which is a more midrange card, but definately playable, perhaps in Niche's MBC.

No room in my list for Nyaxthid.

SH!T I meant Demigod Black. Sorry about that misunderstanding. Your MBC is completely along different lines, and probably warrents testing.
