Bontu's Monument
Legendary Artifact
Black creature spells you cast cost less to cast.
Whenever you cast a creature spell, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.

Phyrexian Altar is included because of the Bontu's Monument and Oathsworn Vampire infinite damage three card combo. I'm not adding Rings of Brighthearth because I don't want to. I'm not adding Nim Deathmantle either. I do agree that Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet isn't the best and I should cut it. Priest of Forgotten Gods has a lot of synergy in this deck. I could add Vampiric Rites or any similar cards instead but I have chosen not to. I think I will add in Contamination instead of other cards. It is much more powerful than other options in my opinion. Thanks for the feedback!

I had removed Bontu's Monument for Jet Medallion. I'm removing the Jet Medallion for Martyr's Cause and testing this instead.

... the Bontu's Monument since it doesn't work here.

After doing some reading, cards like Reassembling Skeleton are using an activated ability to return from the graveyard. This is not considered casting a spell so Bontu's Monument wouldn't trigger. Probably going to remove Bontu's Monument because the value is low.

Does Bontu's Monument grant the discount and/or the trigger when you return creatures from the graveyard with their activated abilities?

I decided to leave Chainer, Dementia Master out. I feel my newest additions are more for what the deck does or wants to do. I considered Beacon of Unrest but I don't think I want to cut anything for it. Perhaps Bontu's Monument?

Ziatora Calls Upon the Demons

NV_1980 Good thoughts, thanks. Bontu's Monument and Mana Echoes have been underperforming recently. Chromatic Lantern is worth a shot. Black Market Connections seems like the best new option, as far as card draw goes, so I'm going to try that alongside Phyrexian Arena.

I would probably replace Bontu's Monument with Chromatic Lantern (mana-fixing can be so incredibly useful in multi-color decks). Maybe also add a few more draw options (cheap-to-cast ones, like Phyrexian Arena) because the deck seems to be lacking a bit in that department.
