I'd play either Ad Nauseam or Thrumming Stone but not both. They supply you with sort of the same thing, and don't work well together.

Cutting Bolas's Citadel in a deck that's all about spending life for insurmountable advantage seems silly to me. Especially if you're bringing in Tendrils of Agony.

Living Death can be very meta-dependent, I would like to run some semblance of graveyard hate before I would include that, the card can just lose you the game if you're unlucky.

plakjekaas sometimes I don't word things right, that's kinda what I was saying is swapping out thrumming stone and adding ad nauseam.

"Cutting Bolas's Citadel in a deck that's all about spending life for insurmountable advantage seems silly to me. Especially if you're bringing in Tendrils of Agony."

Amazingly enough rarely do I ever find myself using citadel and quite a few K'rrik players have talked about removing it because in order to make it really work you need Sensei's Divining Top or Necropotence and those aren't exactly the searched for cards unless they happen to be in open hand or all options are exhausted. I agree with the tendrils comment.

Tendrils is kind of a playtest because there have been times when my life was absolutely unrecoverable because I didn't pay attention. Plunge into Darkness generally covers the life but if I'm low and can't get shadowborn in than it doesn't help so much

"Living Death can be very meta-dependent, I would like to run some semblance of graveyard hate before I would include that, the card can just lose you the game if you're unlucky."

I can't talk on this yet I haven't gotten a chance to cast it. Some ways it could work are really good, but yea it very well could lose the game depending.

I appreciate the comment btw solid thoughts.
