At first my list:
Scrubland 4
Wasteland 4
Marsh Flats 4
Plains (1) 1
Volrath's Stronghold 1
Swamp (2) 6
Vindicate 4
Dark Ritual 4
Sinkhole 4
Hymn to Tourach 3
Thoughtseize 4
Swords to Plowshares 3
Umezawa's Jitte 1
Sword of Fire and Ice 1
Sword of Light and Shadow 1
Duress 1
Dark Confidant 4
Gatekeeper of Malakir 4
Stoneforge Mystic 2
Vampire Nighthawk 4
Lands: 20, Spells: 25, Crt: 15 60 12
Side:
Smother 4
Duress 3
Leyline of the Void 4
Ok now my problems with the deck:
1) I am not happy with my 1 drops. I have Thoughtseize+1 Duress which are great, but my 2nd best play then is Ritual into sth., which is -1 card. I am thinking about cutting Ritual completely, but on the play it could be a great card, if i can malakir or duress+sinkole.
2) Can i support Malakir in this deck? If i play him, do i have to cut the Plain or the Volrath?
3) I am not so happy about playing discard and landdestruction effects at the same time, but i guess i`ll have to, becasue it`s my only way to effectly put up a defense...
Thx for all your comments and help
