Unbannings —Feb. 3, 2014
BItterblossom is unbanned! Instant 4-of in the deck!
I have reset the discussion as the MD and SB have changed significantly. Keep the discussion up!
Thanks for the comment and suggestions!
The Squeaking Pie Sneak is a good creature and i consider fear to be better evasion than flying. However, two things go against the pie sneaking little rascal:
1/ He is conditional - with him there will be 18 goblins, but that is still a lower than 100% to be able to play him t2.
2/ With the faerie, I actually want the opponent to sacrifice his hand. Hand attack is one of the key points to the strategy of the deck.
Still, being able to survive Electrickery is a good bonus, which few of the current creatures can currently do. I will test him out.
Tokens are a GRAVE problem for this deck, so much so that i have considered Illness in the Ranks as a 4-of in the sideboard. However, corrosive mentor is not an an answer to the token swarm. My creatures will not have sufficient quantity to profitably trade with all tokens. First strike and wither will be another thing, but FS is not really black's thing. Thus, I will have to not take corrosive mentor as a considaration.

Never mind, it is always good to get more suggestions, the deck looks pretty flushed out as it is. I would include some liliana of the veil as i get my hands on them, but that is going super over budget.

GOes against the grain of the deck - is 3 mana, way too much for the deck's liking, and does not impact the board in any way. The focus is board and hand control. Running out of steam on turn 4 and having a significant advantage in the board/hand is the way the deck wins almost 100% of the time.
No good board position on t4 or t5, means you most probably lose the game, and no amount of card draw can salvage the game at that point. This is the reason I removed the 4 Morsel Theft that were originally in the deck.

I like this decks, but I'm not sure of all about Oona's Prowler maybe Squeaking Pie Sneak instead.And also Corrosive Mentor for your sideboard, I could help you a lot againts small creatures/tokens decks (and a little against aggro decks) also it doesn't break the sinergys.
