Dread

Fear (This creature can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or black creatures.)
Whenever a creature deals damage to you, destroy it.

Reason
Legendary Creature - Hydra Elemental
Flying, Trample
This creature enters with 6 Foresight counters on it. If this creature would be destroyed or exiled while it has 1 more Foresight counters, instead remove a Foresight counter from this creature.
Whenever this creature receives a counter, and whenever a counter is removed from this creature, each opponent draws a card.
6/6

I present an elemental Lorwyn style Hydra!
Create another multicolor Lorwyn style elemental ala (Dread, Vigor, Purity.)

A "Hatred" for Shadow

I dont think I'd have any card in my deck with the sole purpose of being a blocker. Id hate it every time I drew the card.
Darkness is a fog in black
Ensnaring Bridge might work if you can play around it. Your guys are small but your buffing them.
Stuffy Doll + Pariah's Shield is cute but on their own they are sort of dead draws.
Hissing Miasma is a deterrent but not a very strong one
Crawlspace limits the number of attackers
Exquisite Blood might solve the problem in another way
Mirage Mirror acts as a great deterrent that also has a lot of utility.
Marchesa's Decree give you monarch which you can always get back so thats sweet
Davriel, Soul Broker very strong
Solemn Simulacrum the best blocker lol
Not exactly what you asked for but hopefully gave you some good ideas.

I have replaced Darigaaz, the Igniter, Dread, and Death Cloud with Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire, Ziatora, the Incinerator, and Fraying Omnipotence, because the newer cards are vastly superior to the older cards, and that did, unfortunately, increase the average converted mana cost of this deck from 3.92 to 3.95, but those numbers are deceptive, since I would have needed to spend at least 2 mana on the in Death Cloud's mana cost to receive good value from it.
DemonDragonJ on How Can I Put Ziatora, …

I wish to put Ziatora, the Incinerator into my Kresh the Bloodbraided EDH deck, but I am not certain what card I should remove to make room for her.
The most logical choice is Darigaaz, the Igniter, because he does not contribute to the main theme of the deck and simply has been outclassed, but I was also considering replacing Dread, due to its heavily monocolroed casting cost, or The Immortal Sun, since recent comments from other users have inspired me to rethink me decision to include that card in every EDH deck that I make.
What does everyone else say about this subject? Which card should I remove to put Ziatora, the Incinerator into this deck?

Ok, I've used all of those cards befor and the problem with them is
-
Indulgent Tormentor, it's just a bad card, if it was 4 mana to cast I'd say yea it's just another version of Loyal Subordinate and you can run it. With giving your opponents 3 options it's bad.
-
Visara the Dreadful, the cost to cast this at 6 mana is really one of the biggest problems with this card. Secondly, because it doesn't have haste, you'll have to wait a turn to use it. It's tap ability to destroy is really what's the best part of the card but because it's a tap ability you can't attack with the flying 5/5. That also applies to Avatar of Woe. Although Dread doesn't do anything that you can see (like Ghostly Prison). It seems like it's a bad card. But it's not. It hits for 6 with fear. And protection from the crack back.
In my honest opinion, you'd be better off running Royal Assassin in place of Visara the Dreadful or WOE. And running Ophiomancer in place of Dread.

I have a copy of Dread in my Kresh the Bloodbraided EDH deck, but that creature's ability is reactive, and I wish to replace it with a creature whose ability is proactive, and I am currently considering either Indulgent Tormentor or Visara the Dreadful, so which creature does everyone else here prefer?

DrukenReaps, I chose Dread because its ability synergizes with Kresh, but I agree that its cost is rather strict for a three-colored deck, so are there any creatures that are very similar, but with a more lenient mana cost?

Ah, my apologies. Looks like I misread the post xD
Korvold should be solid in the deck too then. I'd look at things that don't necessarily push Kresh or may be harder to utilize. Cards like Dread has 3 black pips for example. That can be rough in a three color deck. Vulturous Zombie also a good one for replacing. Seedborn Muse is a card I've been questioning in my own deck when I include it. A number of times I've been like 'oh yeah, good card auto-include' then play it and it doesn't do anything because I'm not heavy on instants nor tapping creatures for effects... Worth re-considering it here too. Hope that's more helpful, totally get liking "bad" commanders.
