Update:

Main Deck- Removed Dark Ritual, replaced with Cabal Ritual. Essentially dropping the possibility of a turn 1 Troll (via combo) in order to have better thematic synergy.

Sideboard- Removed Ray of Ruin, replaced with Howl from Beyond. A surprise finisher seems more useful than a redundant removal spell.

Hi NeverCloud,

I am always a fan of Skittles, and Poison (aka Infect/Toxic) and am happy to see yet another deck in my favorite archetypes. First bit of advice I must give you is that you must build a proper deck description. You don't need to build a whole primer, but you need to inform the visitor to your page of what cards/synergies are important. Is this deck meant for a 4 player pod? Single player? What kind of decks do you want to match this deck up against?

As for card recommendations, I understand you are going for a more stax (shout out to that foil tangle wire btw, I have one of my own and I absolutely adore that card) approach but I think having a bit of ramp may help you have more consistent games. I suggest the following:

• Crypt Ghast - a mana doubler in monoblack is always worth consdering.
• Cabal Coffers - The "mate" if you will to the already included Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth. It's great consistent ramp that I highly recommend.
• Sceptre of Eternal Glory - a strictly better Gilded Lotus for mono colored decks.
• Canoptek Wraith - A goofy ramp option in monoblack. I think it's definitely worth experimenting with.
• Demonic Tutor - the strictly better Diabolic Tutor. On that note, there's also Vampiric Tutor and Imperial Seal.

I'm curious as to why you lean more heavily into a discard theme as opposed to a voltron or proliferation subtheme? On that note, I do have some card suggestions for you:

• Sword of Feast and Famine - this helps you break parity with Tangle Wire and Static Orb in play. Unfortunately, yes you can't target it with Hatred or Howl from Beyond but I think that's a small price to pay to be able to get all of your lands to untap after just one attack.

• Phyresis Outbreak - this card gets poison counters on opponents without targeting them, and is only amplified in efficiency by your commander after it takes just one swing against an opponent. It may be slower than what you're looking for, but worth considering.

That's it from me, I don't want to inundate you with card options. But I am genuinely curious as to how your games look, and what your usual paths to victory are.

I love your having the old cards (monster rabbit and that shade) but for Massacre Girl maybe you’ll want something like Howl from Beyond? Surprise voltron?

Howl from Beyond and Endless Scream are cool.

Dauthi Embrace is good

I personally like Reiver Demon

More people should be playing Void

I found Karn, Silver Golem to be very useful in a black deck to kill artifacts.

And I will always say Infiltration Lens and Glasses of Urza are underrated

Thanks Profet93! Such a good card, I’ma have to think of what it should replace. Thinking Howl from Beyond… I’ll have to mull this over for a bit.

First card I thought of was Fatal Frenzy. Unless the sacrifice rider is critical, there's also Hatred, Howl from Beyond, and double strike effects.

Howl from Beyond might be good for infecting faster :)

Octopus Umbra, Howl from Beyond, one or two of the "shapeshifter" creatures that counts as all creature types
