Looking for the best black enchantments and/or card that allow me to play/get to them fast :)thanks!

FYI:currently thinking about running Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood as my bomb and Semblance Anvil to get them out easy!

The thing for black enchantments is that they do VERY different things. For example, Blood Funnel vs Heartless Summoning. Since black can "do anything for a price", its enchantment really do everything.

My vote goes to Erebos, God of the Dead.

Phyrexian Arena, Black Market

But as Boza said, it really depends.

Well, Lets make a list,

• Phyrexian Arena

• Necropotence

• Grave Pact/Dictate of Erebos

• No Mercy

• Attrition

• Gate to Phyrexia- Destroys artifacts, the explicit reason why it is on this list.

• Animate Dead/Necromancy

• Bitterblossom

• Black Market

• Expensive but Chains of Mephistopheles, it hoses control deck and any decks that want to draw

• Conspiracy, for a tribal deck

Hope this helps.

Whip of Erebos, Underworld Connections and Dictate of Erebos are things I'd like to mention. These are all pretty amazing cards in the right context.

I mean Yawgmoth's Bargain is one of the best black enchantments but I guess you mean for EDH, so Necropotence, like was said above, is probably the best. Phyrexian Reclamation, Enslave and in the right kind of deck, Nether Void and The Abyss although they are expensive are pretty good. Also Contamination (pretty mean card though).

Contamination with Reassembling Skeleton make a pretty nice lock for anyone not heavily in black.

As far as black enchantment go, I really like Debtors' Knell and Painful Quandary.

Waste Not in multiplayer commander with wheel effects. Gets better with more colors, but there's always Dark Deal.

Chains of Mephistopheles... one of my FAVs. Hard lock with Teferi's Puzzle Box!
