    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    I wanted it on a 1-drop so I could cast an LD spell on turn 2. My friend suggested the Wall too though, maybe that would just be better overall...

    Card/Deck Humans

    Friend drafted a Worldknit deck from my cube. He happened to pick up a Mayor of Avabruck, and complained that he didn't want it in his deck. Then he cast it against my blue tempo deck turn 2 on the play, forcing me to FoW it, recurred it a couple times and eventually resolved it, only then...

    Card/Deck Theme in black and white

    I have been trying to make Lingering Souls/Braids a thing. Works with Smokestack and Pox too. And Balance, I guess, maybe?

    Liliana of the Veil Opened a playset. Sold them all for $50 total. It's totally gonna go down when it rotates from Standard, right?

    Card/Deck Smokestack

    It's pretty fun with value permanents: Bone ShredderKitchen FinksBaleful StrixBlade SplicerSarcomancy And I think these types of combos help give black some more identity without being too powerful (granted, I don't run multiple Gravecrawlers yet) OphiomancerBitterblossomBloodghastLingering Souls
