Hey guys, I'm a fairly new magic player although I play a lot of EDH and am fairly used to the format. I really wanted to build a mono black EDH deck that wasn't K'rrik or Yawgmoth, and I stumbled across Toshiro Umezawa and absolutely loved the him. I want this deck to help teach me to play reactively and to help me learn when when the right moment to strike is. I haven't played this deck in a actual game setting so I'm not sure how well it works realistically, but my plan is to play toshiro as early as possible, and then simply wait, hold up mana and not use my kill spells unless threatened or forced to. Play the long game and try to not seem like a big threat, then win with huge amounts of kill spells that give me value and use cards like Hatred, Revel in Riches, and Grave Betrayal to close it off. What cards do you think I should cut or add to make it better? I'm trying to keep the price at around $150. Thanks guys!
