Artifact Control In Mono Black

Commander (EDH) forum

Posted on May 21, 2013, 4:25 p.m. by GoTeamJosh

Hey everyone. I recently built a new mono black EDH deck and I've noticed that I have practically no artifact removal/destruction. I have all the creature destruction in the world, but that's not always enough. Any suggestions?

Black doesn't deal with artifacts, really. Your options are limited to things like Oblivion Stone .

Phyrexian Tribute is the only one I think think of, aside from what Epochalyptik suggested.

the three that I found are

Curse Artifact

Gate to Phyrexia

and Phyrexian Tribute

personally I would use more discard and force opponent to sacrifice abilities.

Black has a designed-in weakness to enchantments and to artifacts. The only cards I know that can help you deal with them (not out right destruction) are: Burden of Greed , Braids, Cabal Minion , Curse Artifact , Relic Bane , Gate to Phyrexia (which is really your best answer), Disciple of the Vault , Warp Artifact , or Nevinyrral's Disk as your best one shot

Xenic Poltergeist and Karn, Silver Golem can help you in a sort of roundabout way.
