Hello TappedOut! The goal of Drana's playthings is to manipulate our opponents Hp and the field in bizarre ways that will make your opponents want to ragequit or to force the opposition out of the game with lethal commander damage thanks to Drana's self buff.

The core of this deck is naturally Drana Kalastria Bloodchief, Tree of Perdition, Sorin Markov and Massacre Girl. Making use of Drana's ability we can use Tree of perdition to reduce it's toughness to 1 then swap to mimic a Vraska ultimate in turn reducing an opponents life to 1.

With Massacre Girl we can keep the board clean of multitudes of threats by manipulating the toughness of creatures on the board with Drana then throwing down massacre girl when things look unfavorable.

Sorin Markov needs no introduction and works as a sort of back-up in case we never draw tree of perdition. Using these four we can play with the board and the life totals of whomever we like (or dislike) at the table assuming no responses are made.

Due to suggestion this deck now features a bit of card draw.

I would appreciate help figuring out what creatures would be best and/or if I should focus on a vampire tribal instead.

All ideas are welcome... Be it more health manipulation or mono-black staple suggestions etc. This was at first intended to be budget, however I will take suggestions for more pricey upgrades and throw them into the maybeboard or be sure to make note of them elsewhere.
