Liliana: Ramp, Drain, Kill *RETIRED*

Commander / EDH Control Goodstuff Mono-Black Multiplayer

Mono black control. Lots of creature destruction, value, and card draw.

I don't always like my decks to rely heavily on my commander so I present my take on Liliana, Heretical Healer. The deck has the ability to cast and flip Liliana early if you feel like you can protect her until she ults. With her emblem the game usually ends pretty quickly from recurring value creatures. The primary way the deck wins is to grind out your opponents, neutralize their threats, and build up your mana to cast a large Torment of Hailfire, or sac and reanimate Kokusho or Gary enough times in a turn, or over the course of a few turns, to drain everyone out.

As the deck has evolved, it's shifted away from tokens and sacrificing to a lower curve, drawing cards, and building up your mana. Sacrifice outlets are important, but I've cut cards like Grave Pact and Dictate of Erebose for cards like Sign in Blood and Night's Whisper. As long as you have a grip of cards the deck is pretty flexible.

+The Elderspell

+Dread Presence

+Yawgmoth, Thran Physician

More planeswalker decks are showing up in my meta and I already have creatures well under control so the Elderspell comes in over Hero's Downfall.

Caged Sun is out. I don't have a way to recur artifacts so this is the worst mana doubler of the ones I run. Dread Presence comes in because of the amazing value it can provide.

Yahenni is out for Yawgmoth. Yahenni was really only in the list because it was a free sac outlet, but it rarely did more than that. Yawgmoth comes in to keep my sac outlet count the same and give me that sweet value.
