A personal spin on the Suicide Black Archetype. This deck is very fun and exciting to play, and cheap to build as well. Always looking for ways to fine tune it as well, but if you are going to comment a suggestion please mention if you think it might be specific to your playgroup's meta.

Suicide Black ideally can Dark Ritual out 2 or 3 high-value bodies with drawbacks on turn 1 and just beat down opponents before they get a chance to do much about it. Most creatures also have more than 1 toughness, making this deck resilient to the often major weakness of aggro in pauper: Electrickery.

The most important side of this build is that it is tuned to balance out how much you hurt yourself against life gain from vault skirge, night market lookout, and sovereign's bite. This allows you to pay for 1 mana 2/2s, muta, and snuff out safely as long as you properly assess the correct time to play these cards.

-4 Pulse Tracker -1 Disfigure +4 Consume Spirit +1 Gray Merchant of Asphodel

Disfigure has been overall underwhelming, and it was recommended to me that the Pulse Trackers were not high tempo enough. Instead, I put in some Consume Spirits for the time being since we usually have too much mana and nothing to do with it, or have already won by turn 3-4. The idea is that they provide more outlets for remaining Dark Rituals, but now that Gray Merchant is there as a finisher, Pulse Tracker or a similar creature may want to take the place to add more power behind our good friend Gary.
