Currently running a mono-black deck based around fast discard and using exalted creatures to attack, but the exalted part of it feels weak. Here's the deck as it currently stands: Creatures (21): 3x Duty-Bound Dead  3x Knight of Infamy  3x Servant of Nefarox  4x Ravenous Rats  4x Vampire Nighthawk  4x Tormented Soul  Spells (15): 4x Murder  4x Duress  4x Mind Rot  3x Crippling Blight  Artifacts (3): 3x Ring of Xathrid  Lands (21): 19x Swamp  2x Cathedral of War  As you might have noticed, it's all M13 core right now. Now that we've played for a while, my group is willing to add in cards from other sets. I'm thinking of dropping exalted altogether and switching to pure unblockable creatures. Here's what I'm planning to do: -3x Duty-Bound Dead -3x Knight of Infamy -3x Servant of Nefarox -3x Ring of Xathrid -3x Crippling Blight -2x Cathedral of War -8x Swamp +4x Inkfathom Infiltrator  +4x Ghastlord of Fugue  +4x Harbor Bandit  +4x Appetite for Brains  +4x Drowned Catacomb  +5x Island  Are there any other black/blue combo lands? Also, is Harbor Bandit worth it or is there another unblockable black or blue creature? Any other decent discard sorceries or instants I should be looking at? Thanks!

You may like Creeping Tar Pit  Hypnotic Specter  and Hymn to Tourach  are some classic discard spells.

It is expensive but I guess I can recommend Thoughtseize  . In place of Duress and/or Appetite. And you're playing the colors that allow you to use my favorite card, Shadowmage Infiltrator  . Give it a shot.

Well that is up to you.
But I can say that Tormented Soul is pretty mediocre without equipment or something to buff it. I guess it combos with the Witch but her ability is pretty expensive.

Cool.
You think 21 lands is enough?
