K'rrik Son of Yawgmoth 2.0
4 days ago
For cuts I would recommend:
Professor Onyx - While Liliana's side job is beneficial for society (educators are very important, especially those who help us raise people from the dead), the deck doesn't have a strong spell slinger theme so her static doesnt work, the minus three is not as optimal as it makes itself out to be, and other effects are... not worth the six mana and time required.
Charcoal Diamond - You've got a ridiculous amount of ramp in this deck already, not sure this piece is needed. Plus, with the way K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth works, you want to ramp in colourless more than in black with your artifacts and similar since K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth always pays for black anyways, so Mind Stone just makes Charcoal Diamond look that much more of a downgrade.
Defense Grid - Not really seeing the point. Plus, this is meant to be a casual deck, all this will do is make everyone more upset and make interaction harder.
Saw in Half - It's a fun card not really worth adding.
Meathook Massacre 2 - I have a feeling it's a bit redundant to have both, especially since they both do a bit different things and you've got many tutors. Cutting the second part instead of its original installation would make more sense because this copy does cost a lot for its effect, whereas The Meathook Massacre became so played because it being pretty low costing for everything it does.
Paradise Plume - A lot of mana for its effect, and you have too many ramp cards.
Shared Trauma - Not too sure on this card's inclusion and what it would do.
Chain of Smog - I personally don't think discard cards are very strong in EDH, might be a good cut. I can see this being played against CEDH players and having a big effect, but EDH? Not as convinced.
Grim Tutor - You've got a lot of tutors, you can cut this one.
Final Parting - Same as above.
Diabolic Tutor - You can guess what I've got to say about this one.
Platinum Angel - I think take this one out. You can't pay life below zero so I'm not sure why else this would be in the deck.
Phage the Untouchable - As you said, you'd put it in your maybeboard and have it come out a game or two so you can just say you've killed someone with Phage, but I'd probably just keep it in the maybeboard.
Orcish Bowmasters - What are you playing, CEDH?
Opposition Agent - This is really more a meta suggestion than anything, but you don't verse people with a lot of tutors, you'd be lucky if people run more than one tutor. I'd cut this just from a meta perspective, or at least have it as a maybeboard card.
Doomsday Excruciator - Eh, nah.
Dimir House Guard - It's a sac outlet and a tutor in one, so I see what you're going with, which is why I'm only partially suggesting it as a cut, but also it's not the best at either job.
Chainer, Dementia Master - Not sure I'm feeling Chainer in this deck specifically.
Bloodletter of Aclazotz - Would be a lovely card for our cube, but I think there are already better finishers in this deck.
Asmodeus the Archfiend - Another maybe cut. It's a fun and spicy card, but also you're losing a lot of life for an effect which you do better with other cards in here. You really don't want to have too many cards that do similar things, especially since you've got many tutors and draw cards.
Cabal Stronghold - You've got three basic lands. There is no world in which you could activate this card and get a payoff from it.
Emergence Zone - Playing stuff at instant speed doesn't really help your deck.
Rogue's Passage - Zero use in this deck.
/
I also have addition suggestions:
Torment of Hailfire - Not sure why this isn't here.
Swamp - Add one Swamp for every land cut.

[EDH] Phage Is Gonna Touch You

Profet93 thank you for your comment! Honestly I'm looking to try to make it a tad more efficient in regards to card advantage and recursion. I don't usually play mono-black so I don't know if I'm missing any super noteworthy cards. While my main gameplan is to win with Phage the Untouchable, I do have a recursion subtheme. Is there anything I'm missing in regards to recursion-based cards that could easily slot into the deck?

Crouching Kadena, Hidden Phage
8 months ago
I did a small overhaul of the mana base if you're interested. My best attempt for for being able to ramp early and cast Kadena with green, cast heavy blue spells like Teferi, Time Raveler and Sea Gate Restoration
Flip, and also cast Phage the Untouchable. I still might be stretching myself too thin here and if that's the case then the solution would be to the turn 2 green ramp for artifact ramp and see if I can cut down on green sources for blue/black. I think between fetches and color fixing ramp this will work though, we'll see.

wallisface, Mark Rosewater has stated that black is the most selfish of the colors, and cards such as Phage the Untouchable and Reiver Demon have very strict casting costs.

Multifarious Assassination
1 year ago
Reesedaniel82 If you're talking about copying Phage the Untouchable with Lazav, the Multifarious, I believe it does work. When a card refers to itself in its rules text, unless it specifically uses the wording "a card named xxx", it actually means "this card."
So Lazav would gain the abilities
"Whenever (this creature) deals combat damage to a creature, destroy that creature. It can’t be regenerated.
Whenever (this creature) deals combat damage to a player, that player loses the game."

Crouching Kadena, Hidden Phage

First of all, the deck is great. I love Kadena's playpattern and am always looking for inspiration.
I might be missing it, but are you hardcasting Phage the Untouchable for the whole cost? Or do you manifest it face-down, or morph it somehow? I seem to be missing that line, if it's currently there.
+1 on the upvotes.

Crouching Kadena, Hidden Phage [~$20] edition
1 year ago
I mentioned this in the other list, but I'll throw this out there two since the card is budget. Scroll of Fate seems like a great addition. It's great with Kadena on it's own, but even better when that manifest creature just so happens to be Phage the Untouchable :).
