Yes I love a good hand disruption deck the wheels for damage but more so makes them discard like Delirium Skeins, or Ill-Gotten Gains

Ok, so here's a few top picks (imho) for Tergrid, God of Fright  ^Flip.

Oppression, Liliana, Waker of the Dead, Rankle, Master of Pranks, Living Death, Delirium Skeins, Innocent Blood, Cunning Lethemancer, Bottomless Pit, Necrogen Mists, Words of Waste, Smokestack, Sword of Feast and Famine & Chains of Mephistopheles (just proxy it lol)

There's also a lot of cheaper options that are just as synergistic like Plaguecrafter, Demon's Disciple, Raven's Crime, Hymn to Tourach, Mind Twist, Mind Shatter, Mind Slash & Sadistic Hypnotist.

Outside of the synergy pieces, I'd recommend replacing some of those low-power pieces like Bad Deal & Inevitable End with value pieces like Dark Ritual & Vampiric Tutor for greater consistency.

I actually really like the inclusion of 4 Voidwalkers since it gives the undying cards another target besides Grief, especially since one voidwalker can cast cards exiled with a different Voidwalker (or its past dead self).

Having so many fetches in mono B for deck thinning is probably not necessary imo. I would probably put like 2-3 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth along with 3-4 Urza's Saga. Urborg also goes pretty well with a couple horizon lands like Silent Clearing. Force of Despair is a cool card that a lot of 8rack players were excited to test out when it got spoiled, personally I don't think running 3 copies is a great idea in a deck already pitching cards to Grief but you could maybe run 3 combined between mainboard and sideboard.

Path of Peril is a really funny boardwipe since a) you can sack your Dauthi anyways and b) it doesn't hit Grief. Obviously some antisynergy with Saga but its probably fine if you sequence plays correctly.

This is definitely a deck where I would put some copies of Surgical Extraction in the sideboard.

20 lands is probably on the low side, although you aren't running any Raven's Crime. Need testing for that one.

The tweaks I'd make before playtesting would probably be:

Mainboard:

-4 Bloodstained Mire -4 Verdant Catacombs -2 Force of Despair -2 Shrieking Affliction

+2 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth +4 Urza's Saga +1 Godless Shrine +1 Silent Clearing +1 Pithing Needle +1 Nihil Spellbomb +1 Path of Peril +1 Bloodchief's Thirst/Funeral Charm/Dismember idk

Reasoning: with Saga, you can cut on Afflictions since you can tutor racks more consistently, Needle and Spellbomb are just mainboard saga target staples, and then some other removal to replace Force of Despair. Funeral Charm can let a big construct through with Urborg. What removal you choose to run is probably meta dependent.

Sideboard:

This is definitely a lot more meta dependent so I can't comment as much.

Here Necromentia can probably be replaced with Surgical Extraction.

Go Blank is decent grave hate but can be replaced with extra Nihil Spellbomb or 4 Leyline of the Void, personal preference. Also good to note that Go Blank can sometimes be too slow (vs grinding breach) and also doesn't shut down some decks as effectively as leyline like Murktide, Scam, Grinding Station, Yawgmoth, Living End, etc while Leyline stops all of those in their tracks.

Delirium Skeins is a sideboard card against Leyline of Sanctity if thats ever a problem.

Path of Peril or Bontu's Last Reckoning can replace Damnation if you find yourself badly needing a t3 boardwipe.

Collective Brutality classic sideboard card against burn, and probably much better than March of Wretched Sorrow in 95% of situations.

You can also move the Spellbomb + Needle package to the sideboard if you think mainboard is too crowded with the scam package.

EDITS:

I made the deck more balanced between discard and sacrifice. This keeps opponents lacking both summoned creatures and cards.

I also better balanced it so that we're more likely to have more than just Tergrid on our battlefield early so we have a sacrificial creature for cards like Smallpox, which could potentially be cast immediately after summoning Tergrid.

Improved mana ramp since it was definitely too slow before. Added cards like Dark Ritual now that I understand how powerful it actually is. Getting Tergrid, God of Fright  ^Flip out on turn two sometimes is crazy. Especially since we do have low cost sacrifices and discards like Delirium Skeins and Mire in Misery.

Zobi on No Hand Discard

Hehe, discard, what a great strategy.

Here are my recommendations for mass discard spells; Awaken the Erstwhile, Ill-Gotten Gains, Fraying Omnipotence and Delirium Skeins.

For black mana ramp, here is what I found; Spoils of Evil, Culling the Weak, Herald of Leshrac, Black Market and Cabal Ritual. Obliviously, they aren't putting lands into play, most are only giving you mana on the spot. You could also add mana rocks like Everflowing Chalice or some of the few black lands that ramp you a lot like Cabal Coffers with Urborg which are really expensive. I like the combo between Culling the Weak and Ophiomancer : create a snake with Ophiomancer and sacrifice it with Culling the Weak. Note: with Culling the Weak, you can sacrifice any number of creatures for 4 black mana each.

I hope it's going to help you, good luck with your deck LoneSniper72!

Thanks for the comment! I completely forgot about Delirium Skeins and I can see Geth's Grimoire having a place in this deck.

Delirium Skeins, Geth's Grimoire, Megrim, Pain Magnification... depends on how crazy you want to go. Demonfire might be good as well
