Well, this is the second deck in my deck series, Making Unplayable Cards Playable. This was a challenge by Gattison, and I promised I would deliver. This has been a long time in the making, but I hope to make more of these decks....

BTW I don't really play any Legacy so my mana base is probably horrible :D
Also, looking for replacements for the standard tutor (Mastermind's Acquisition) for some better Legacy tutors. Any suggestions?

Explanation of cards:
-Use Rituals and Tutors to find all pieces of this combo
-Play Derelor and Painter's Servant, naming black.
-Play Donate or Harmless Offering, gifting your Derelor to a hapless opponent. Since all of your opponent's spells are black, they MUST pay an additional to cast each of their spells. If they don't have any way of producing black mana, they can't cast any spells. If they do, use Blood Moon and Magus of the Moon to make it more difficult to produce black mana.
-Use Grindstone to kill your opponent, using Propaganda to keep yourself alive.

Any suggestions for the next deck in this series?
