Still in the works. would appreciate any advice, tips, or other strategies. The idea of this deck is to discard fast early game, look at their hand and try to predict the opponent's next couple turns if you open with thoughtseize. To compensate for thoughtseize's life cost, as well as creature control I put in Vampire Nighthawk. Then Nyxathid to capitalize on the fact that my opponent will not have much of a hand by turn 3-4. Ideally, turn 1 would be a thoughtseize, turn 2, a dark ritual in order to play an ensaring bridge and either another thoughtseize or a funeral charm, turn 3 play a Nyxathid if you have three lands or another dark ritual and discard your opponent some more, and from there you should be able to control the game as you please. The tutors are mainly for the Painful Quandary to use it with a dark ritual on turn 3 or turn 5 with land base. The smallpox can be capitilized since we have dark ritual to create mana if we need it even though we have to sacrifice a land in the process. I would appreciate any tips of other strategies. This is my first discard deck that i have made so any experienced salty players out there, i would appreciate your wisdom.
