4 Nantuko Shade
4 Dark Confidant
3 Hypnotic Spectre

Other:

4 Dark Ritual
2 Umezawa's Jitte (Unfourtunally, I've only got 2 of theese...:rolleyes: )
3 Duress
3 Hymn to Tourach
2 Unmask
1 Mox Diamond
1 Chrome Mox
3 Phyrexian Arena
3 Extirpate
1 Shadow of Doubt (Because of the Meta wich I'm playing in... Lots of combo...)
2 Cursed Scroll

____________________

What i see is that it's not very much creatures, if it's gonna be a agro deck maby card such as Knight of the Ebon Hand or Sarcomancy would be nice?

At first sight i see that the number of cards goes like 1, 4, 3, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2... But acctually, 1 Mox Diamond and 1 Chrome mox is good enough, but the numbers of the discard spells worry me a bit.
I don't play more than 2 Unmask, because when you reveal them with BoB, it's more suicide than Agro/Controll...

I need suggestions of cool cards and imporoving ideas for the deck.
All comments are wellcome :tongue:

Hymn and Duress are normally a four of. Of course it depends on your meta.
Shadow of Doubt as a one of!? I havent seen this card in any comeptitive deck yet.

I think you dont need Phyrexian Arena, you have got Confidant.

Your meta is full of combo? Negator is your best friend!
Nantuko Shade is popular as well.
For a combo meta Cursed Scroll is way too slow.
Add up the Specters to four.

Throw out the factories, because your really need :b: :b: in your second turn.

Simply take a look at the other thread around on The Source.

so simply the arena isn't enough?

better playin' negator or something then?

okeh, but the problem is that i don't have the cards like Pithing Needle, sinkhole or 4 jittes.... :<

Confidant as a four of is enough.

A standard creature base is:

4 Hypnotic specter
4 Phyrexian Negator
4 Nantuko Shade
4 Dark Confidant

You can add up others like Sarcomancy or Carnophage.

Sinkhole is a great card and Jitte really helps.

I realy suggest just posting your list in the sui black thread since this is essentially a mix of the two popular versions of the deck. i would suggest for your list to take out unmask, shadow of doubt, and arena. Also 23 lands is to much with rituals.

Good luck with the deck.
