Oh ho, Delve you cheeky boy! —Sept. 5, 2014
So, Empty the Pits just got spoiled... And, yes, it has to be my pick for the most exciting black card to be spoiled outside of the fetches. I'm gonna get my hands on a fist full of the things and put two in the sideboard for those long control match ups.
Devatrap, thanks a lot for your comment! I have to agree that Devotion is gonna get a kick in the teeth once Ravnica rotates.

+1 for Sui Back! It also looks like a pretty solid deck, but I can give only one +1 eheh

Big up Thuzra and GoblinBushwacker for the +1's. Glad to be solid and inspiring :P

Maybe Ulcerate ? It's cheap instant removal for small things, weakens bigger things during combat so you CAN kill them, and it fits in with the whole suicide theme.

Angry_Potatoes: Whilst being a very early spat of removal, I feel that the life loss is too substantial for this deck to support. However, Doom Blade is rotating out so it may be the only suitable replacement for the near future so I'll consider running Ulcerate IF Khans has no better removal.

First, awesome deck. +1 I will be running some version of this deck for sure. What do you think of Whip of Erebos , maybe just 1, especially if you end up having to run ulcerate?

Nebulousone: It has been a big consideration of mine for quite some time, I require some more testing but, if Agent of the Fates turns out to be poor when boarding it in/I need more life gain against certain decks, then I will certainly put a pair in my sideboard.

I was also thinking that Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth might be good for the Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx so that you could also tap them for swamps. It's pretty cheap since the reprint.

Nebulousone: Yeah, I'm certainly going to run a one of as soon as I can find one! I don't think I'll end up running more as it could be an unfortunate thing to help out bug/junk/jund meta decks with fixing.

Sign in Blood or similar draw/lose life effects would be cool for this deck; goes along with the theme of suicide black and gives great card advantage

Berksqerd: Much as I like Sign in Blood , I feel that unless Pain Seer becomes a regular issue, he's plenty card advantage enough. Plus, I've already unlocked the life achievement of killing someone with a sign in blood, so I don't need to live that dream.

Loving this deck idea. I appreciate the fact you spent some time using Thero's Block only cards in order to create a still functional Mono-black aggro deck. Mono-black devotion will die a sad death this September. But Mono-Black aggro swings for the kill!
