In the latest revision of this deck, I have upped the pain level. This deck is all about pain. It punishes players for doing what they normally want to due such as play spells or draw cards. The goal of this deck is to have a quick game, that sometimes you are in good position to win at the end.

Want to draw a card, well it it is going to cost your opponents life to do it with cards such as: Fate Unraveler, Kederekt Parasite, and Underworld Dreams.

Just want to play creatures, again it is going to cost your opponents life or they may have to sacrifice them due to: Mogis, God of Slaughter. And as those creatures or other card go the graveyard, more punishment is meted out with Bloodchief Ascension.

By simply playing spells, your opponents will feel pain with Spellshock, Kaervek the Merciless and Painful Quandary on the field.

The very act of taking this pain causes even more pain due to Archfiend of Despair, Pain Magnification, and Wound Reflection.

To help things along, you get to inflict some pain by just playing out your cards. Vial Smasher the Fierce gets to inflict some torment as you play your spells. Combustible Gearhulk and Twilight Prophet get in for some damage as you draw cards.

There a few cool interactions in this deck. Mana Geyser and Reiterate can result in infinite red mana under the right conditions. Torment of Hailfire and Pain Magnification really put your opponents in a tough situation, especially if Bloodchief Ascension is out and active. If the board is just getting out of hand, wipe it with Last One Standing.

This just scratches the surface of how you can inflict pain and torment with this deck.

Let me know what you think.
