Modern Rogue Tribal (mono-black)

Modern* Mono-Black Tempo Tribal

Starfox772


Sideboard


Modern Rogue tribal deck I'm working on to get myself into modern. Welcome to suggestions if anyone actually sees this.

Main focus is hand humping (discard), followed by cheap pseudo-unblockables to proc prowl, creating cost effective spells that can create a favorable situation. I've tried to shift it a bit away from hand humping as that eventually turns every discard spell into a dead draw once they start topdecking. For this reason I've limited the discard to the Oona's Blackguard, Thoughtseize, and Inquisition of Kozilek. Hopefully these cost effective discard effects synergize well enough.

I've considered making this card Blue/Black due to blue containing the only other evasive/unblockable rogues, but I've found Bad Moon to be too useful for my deck, and said blue rogues are a little too inefficient. Additionally, mana fixing would slow down this deck too much if I added blue (not that mana fixing is hard in modern).

Sideboard:

I take a few additional removal effects for different matchups, along with Inkfathom Infiltrator against matchups with flyers to help ensure prowl procs.Mono-Black: -3 Doom Blade -3 Bad Moon +4 Dark Betrayal +2 Go for the ThroatTron: -3 Inquisition of Kozilek +3 Geth's Verdict

After playtesting with a proxied out deck and managing to snag a singleton bitterblossom, I formulated the current decklist, which I am very happy with
