Big Mana Sinks —June 18, 2018
This deck often generates a ton of mana. I've added a couple more mana sinks that can serve as additional win cons. Also added a couple more Dominaria cards:
Josu Vess, Lich Knight: Great mana sink. The zombie army's menace can make this card a win con. Provides lots of sac fodder for Yahenni too.
Torment of Hailfire: Another solid mana sink that is on theme with the deck by forcing opponents to sac their board or shed their life totals.
Blackblade Reforged: Can't believe I missed this one previously. It gives a massive power boost for relatively little mana. On theme with Lashwrithe and Strata Scythe.
Cabal Stronghold: Not nearly as good as Cabal Coffers as it only counts basic swamps. However, early testing has shown it can still give a decent mana boost in this mono black deck.
Sword of the Animist: This replaces Burnished Hart. For less of a mana investment I find that this card tends to fetch more swamps since the deck wants to be swinging with Yahenni anyway.
Yawgmoth's Vile Offering: On the fence with this one but trying it out. I like that it's a two for one and it is easy to meet the legendary requirement with a cheap (and usually indestructible) commander. 5 mana may be a little clunky though.

Hell's Caretaker, Nightmare Lash, Underworld Connections and Cabal Stronghold are strong suggestions. Great build!
