Bubbling Muck

Sorcery

Until end of turn, whenever a player taps a Swamp for mana, that player adds to his or her mana pool.

For cabal stronghold, you need 4 basics swamps to net you 1 extra mana and 5 basics swamps to net you 2 extra mana. Assuming you actually draw cabal stronghold and nothing but basics, its a nice little bump. But the cost of the slot in your deck vs. the actual benefit is too much IMO. How often one would reliably actually get just stronghold and nothing but swamps in the early game? Seems unlikely.

Regarding Lili, I see your point. On paper, it seems like a solid card to add. You said you got the shell down, have you had any games in your meta? Would love to know her actual impact on games, times she was clutch, a waste, something in between, etc....

Eon Hub - This was super interesting the moment I saw this card many years ago. I get the point, bypass losing 3 life. You have atleast 4 cards that are anti synergy and 1 or 2 that are direct synergy, so I'm a bit mixed.

Profane Transfusion > Soul Conduit. More cost up front but can't be telegraphed, although the token might be an issue, or a benefit depending on the situation.

Necro + Venser's journal - Nice. I do wonder if it's worth adding venser solely for that synergy alone, especially given you don't run a lot of card draw. Syphon Mind is worth considering. Cheap $ and mana for you to draw 3 cards and each opponent discard 1. Another card draw spell to consider is Peer into the Abyss. Given you are already suicide black so to speak, this might be worth considering. Even more fun to use a soul conduit or profane transfusion after.

I notice crucible of worlds and no fetchlands, I'm assuming that's due to life loss and/or $. You are playing black, so I'm surprised you don't add more big black mana. Swapping out Dust Bowl for Thespian's Stage would be helpful to copy coffers, opposing utility land, cathedral of war, deserted temple, etc... (Also unrelated note: Deserted Temple + Rings + Coffers = Infinite black mana). If you do end up removing dust bowl, crucible should go with it, thus freeing more slots. Speaking of big black mana, Bubbling Muck might be worth considering. Do be careful playing this with urborg.

Damnation - Cheaper boardwipe, is there a specific reason why your using deadly tempest and killing wave over damnation? Another board wipe that might be up your alley is The Meathook Massacre. It removes creatures, pings them and heals you.

Deliver Unto Evil - Not needed but I like it. Politics. Bring you back a combo piece, a draw spell, removal, utility, etc.... Black has many ways to recur creatures, few to return non-creature cards. Speaking of creatures, if you are interested in more recursion (aside from Yawgmoth's Will), Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed works lovely with corpse dance. Not an entirely serious suggestion but worth noting.

My apologies for the wall of text, can't wait to hear your thoughts. I love discussing deck card choices and maximizing value/efficiency when possible. Your deck seems lovely. Most people will do a double take at your commander which is nice, love playing more older, unique commanders :)

Bubbling Muck is amazing, albeit symmetrical with urborg.

It always bugged me that you can't really build around Fallen Empires all that much with Endrek, since he's a throwback card and all. There is Soul Exchange, it's a pretty good reanimation spell if you can count on having a Thrull to sacrifice, maybe worth a look.

Probably a bad card, but Bubbling Muck can generate a ton of mana for something big.

AceDallenbach thanks for your suggestions, As you say, Skullclamp would also be good to use, but it doesn't quite fit my idea personally.

Tragic Slip is very interesting and I'll give that a try and see if Dismember or Tragic Slip makes more sense in my meta.

Razaketh, the Foulblooded I had already considered and even put him in the folder, but the sacrifice put me off. If I see how consistently I'm allowed to keep my tokens, it could actually go into the deck.

Agadeem's Awakening  Flip I forgot, of course it can replace a swamp.

I was unsure if Bubbling Muck or Dark Ritual... but yeah you're right, in the late game it's stronger and it's not said that Dark Ritual is on one of the early ones hands is...

Darkness and Reanimate are both very strong cards for the deck, I'll test which one is more rewarding in practice.

I will try the suggestions step by step and the ones that were convincing will go into the deck :-)

Hey honestly this current build is pretty solid. Skullclamp came to mind and since you are running Bitterblossom and Ophiomancer there is some synergy that could argue for the extra-card draw.

I also saw you are running Dismember not a bad card by any means, but what about Tragic Slip? Personally I find it preforms better in this slot, sure it isn’t as versatile but creature deaths are very common and you have the means to force creature deaths to where the -13/-13 is most likely going to be the outcome.

Razaketh, the Foulblooded is expensive in both money and mana but it wins games. Pay two life to tutor is gross.

Harvester of Souls is a personal favorite but I don’t know if you have enough creatures to justify it.

Agadeem's Awakening  Flip there really isn’t a reason not to run this card in most black decks. Worst case its a swamp that costs you 3 life to play early game. late game it can bring back anything that was removed in the early game. It’s super-flexible strongly recommend it.

I’m going to suggest Bubbling Muck. I love Dark Ritual early game but the bubbles is so strong late game, especially if you are going to win by casting Torment of Hailfire.

Lastly Darkness. Really love a fog in a non-green color, especially with this deck. I see anyone playing this deck quickly turning into the archenemy of the table since most do not like stack effects which is what this deck is. Feign Death is a cool card since it can save a creature from a broad range of removal but I still think Reanimate or Darkness would be a better card in that slot.

Anyways hope this helped, great deck!

Hey, good start. To help with deck building add 36 lands, even just basic Swamps to start, to see how many deck spots you have left to fill? How about the name Infectious Invasion?

Other areas to help improve gameplay are more ramp sources and more draw sources. Sheoldred is 7 mana you'll want ramp to consistently cast her as well as cast many high mana cost infect creatures. Dark Ritual, Defiler of Flesh and Culling the Weak are good, but consider more?

Black does well with mana efficient draw for the cost of life or a permanent. Weatherlight Compleated looks to be powerful, but slow and Phyrexian Rager is subpar, consider more draw?

Infect gives poison counters to players when any type of damage is done by the creature with infect, not just combat damage. Vindictive Vampire when it has infect gives each opponent a poison counter when a creature you control dies.

Good luck with your deck.

How do you untap Candelabra of Tawnos? Being a mono artifact it taps when used so unless there is a way to untap it then you wont go infinite, right? I play Candelabra of Tawnos in combination with Bubbling Muck in my mono black storm deck Doom Zenith to generate big mana but I cant see how you have enough islands or untappers to make it useful here. Maybe take out the candelabra tide combo and replace it with low or no cost draw spells like Thought Scour or Consider. that would help you hit land drops with the low land count and also you could put them in the "anything" spots in the doomsday piles in case somebody beats your Gush or Gitaxian Probe or Predict in a counterspell stack.

I was considering the Corpse Harvester because 3 of the 5 Undying creatures here is a Zombie... and more Ramp is always cool..

The way I saw it, Imperial Seal & Corpse Harvester would replace Read the Bones & Gray Merchant of Asphodel, respectively..

The only reason I'm not auto-including the Wasteland is because of running Cabal Coffers, Everglades, Lake of the Dead, Bubbling Muck, and Mutilate..
