Created this deck just to play Nightsky Mimic and to see if I could make a decent $5 budget deck.

Creatures and why I picked them, Nightsky Mimic as the theme of the deck, interesting power I wanted to see if I could use consistently. Nip Gwyllion and Mourning Thrull are early game offense/defense. Kingpin's Pet helps to to get a little by spending some unused mana (the deck I think caps out at 3 or 4 cmc wih 22 lands). Last creature is Pitiless Pontiff I added this more as a defender. you can sac a creature to block and kill threats, add on an enchantment and it turns into quite the tool. Speaking of enchantments, I run Edge of the Divinity because all of my spells are white and black, giving any creature +3/+3 for 1 mana, another good option is Gift of Orzhova only a +1/+1 but flying lifelink is very useful. Lastly Pillory of the Sleepless is my choice for control, stopping a creature from attacking, and making them loose life each round until they can deal with it. For spells I chose, Beckon Apparition helps stop them from accessing cards in their graveyard, and gives some free tokens to sac for Pitiless Pontiff or use as chump blockers. Harsh Sustenance is targeted removal and/or just extra damage if you run out of other spells to play and are trying to push for game. Lastly, Immortal Servitude for a late game push, this is the reason I don't feel too bad about sacrificing creatures to Pitiless Pontiff highest creature is 3, meaning on turn 6 (provided you hit land drops) you can bring everything back from the graveyard.

Let me know what you think, and any budget suggestions you may have. Trying to keep it at $5 and every card to be white/black.
