Mindwhisker

Creature — Rat Wizard

At the beginning of your upkeep, surveil 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it into your graveyard.)

Threshold — As long as seven or more cards are in your graveyard, creatures your opponents control get -1/-0.

Indeed I am, GrimlockVIII! Thank you very much! :3 Ever since I gave them shot around the time Wilds of Eldraine came out, I've been slowly developing a better appreciation for them! X3 Plus I, too, can't deny how potent Vren can be whenever I unalive an opponent's creature! :P

Thanks for all the suggestions on my deck! Means a whole lot! :D Gave them all a run-through in MTGA through a few battled against Sparky, and I must admit... Those are some solid strats! You may very well have helped make my deck more aggressive if not tricky! After trying them out, I'm loving Bitter Triumph for its discard cost especially! I only went with Fell at first 'cause of the theme with the current set. lol But I agree that Instants are more reliable in that sense!

I'm already loving Mindwhisker and his ability to debuff the opponent's creatures' power by -1! Great synergy there once I get Threshold active!

If anything, I was only reluctant on Undercity Sewers 'cause A) I only had one copy of it before your suggestions, and B) I've been convinced by someone else to employ damage-self lands as they don't appear tapped right away. Plus I'm trying to be cautious of how many Rare Wildcards I have to spend in general. But since I had five up till now, I figured I may as well use them if that tapped land card would help me. :P lol

Also real talk, that's the first time I've ever used both Evolving Wilds in any deck, let alone Escape Tunnel! >w<

Thank you so much for your help, Grim! :3 Here's hoping my Rats will prove even more malicious and tenacious now! ^w^

Hello fellow Vren enjoyer. I see you're well-read on the ways of the rat.

Looks like a solid enough deck, though I suggest replacing Fell with Bitter Triumph. Paying the three life might sound rough, but you're able to hit creatures AND planeswalkers at instant speed. Also deciding to discard might help with enabling threshold.

Lilypad Village and Mindwhisker are also around in case you need more surveil to enable threshold.

A copy of Mudflat Village can help recover a key rat that got taken out.

Don't know what your budget is like but there's Undercity Sewers as a land that surveils (though it's pretty expensive). I also suggest something like a playset of Evolving Wilds or Escape Tunnel to help thin out your deck a bit while also helping you hit Threshold.
