marok, thanks for the suggestion! I had thought about going B/W, and even B/G (Lay of the Land
, Voyaging Satyr
, and Elvish Mystic
can really speed up the deck), but I keep coming back to wanting more of the black cards in here. I can probably kick Liliana's Reaver
, and all my Scourgemark
to make some room, as well as Blightcaster
and Cutthroat Maneuver
, but all of that would be filled in with Sanguine Bond
and then maybe one or two white cards.
Hero's Downfall would be great if I can pull one or two, but I'm not so financially able to spend more than a few bucks on a card. Plus, I'm thinking removal would be better in my sideboard, simply to keep any potential black/artifact creatures from messing with my intimidation(of which I will be putting more in. I'm trading for two more Lifebane Zombie and have a few Accursed Spirit in my collection, as well as some Cavern Lampad ). Even if I want removal in my main, Doomblade is where I'd go for now.
What cards do you suggest I drop?

-3x Baleful Eidolon -2x Blightcaster -1x Bogbrew Witch -3x Baleful Eidolon -2x Blightcaster -1x Bogbrew Witch -2x Scourgemark -3x Dark Favor -3x Mark of the Vampire -3x Quag Sickness -2x Cutthroat Maneuver Not to be rude or anything, but none of these cards are really standard viable, and i'm being lenient. Check out some of my standard decks to see, not tier one, but decks that will stand a chance at fnm. The way ur deck is now might be fun to toy around with your pals, but not much else. I actually built a similar deck for my casual crew...

@ marok : That's really all I do, is toy around with my pals. None of us own many cards, and we're all poor bastards. Unfortunately, my LGS sucks, and I don't like to play there. I'll check out your deck sometime, what's it called?

Maybe add Revoke Existence in there. Great for god removal and such. Whip of Erebos as you mentioned above. I've made a mono black deck that kinda does what you're looking for. check it out might give you some ideas: Black Drain

Add white... So many more options, such as Debt to the Deathless because if you have Sanguine Bond out and you cast it for 4, you deal 8, gain 8, then hit for 8 more... and Angelic Accord which combos with bubbling cauldron, Hopeful Eidolon which also goes with the enchantress subtype, Auramancer if u wanna go all in on the enchantments, Gift of Orzhova is pretty standard, then you could add Last Breath for some good removal, and for more black cards consider Hero's Downfall , and just one Sanguine Bond isn't enough if it's your main theme. 3 or 4 is hardly overkill because the ability stacks. And good Black White dual lands are Godless Shrine , Temple of Deceit , Orzhov Guildgate
