Deck Description

Was chatting with willisson7 on his deck "Janky Curse Deck" and thought I'd try making the deck better, or at least what I think is better.

How to Play

So, the idea is to get as many Curses and Paradox Haze onto the opponent, having them die to the Curse effects, which trigger in the upkeep, with Paradox Haze giving additional upkeeps.

It'd be preferable to get Bitterheart Witch onto the battlefield asap, then have it die asap so you can fetch Curse of Misfortunes and enchant the opponent with it
This way you can search for a Curse in each of your upkeeps and enchant the opponent with it, leaving you free to cast Paradox Haze enchanting the opponent, allowing Curse of the Pierced Heart and Curse of Thirst to deal even more damage to the opponent.

Paradox Haze - gives the enchanted player extra upkeeps.
Curse of the Pierced Heart - cheap Curse that deals 1 damage to the enchanted player each upkeep.
Curse of Thirst - deals damage to enchanted player each upkeep equal to the number of Curses on him / her.
Curse of Bloodletting - doubles the damage Curse of Thirst / the Pierced Heart. Does NOT double the effect of Infectious Curse (Accursed Witch flipped).
Infectious Curse (Accursed Witch flipped) - makes casting the Curses and Paradox Haze cheaper.


Most of these cards cost a lot of mana, so I had to include mana acceleration:

Wayfarer's Bauble - both mana ramp and mana fixing.
Desperate Ritual - short term mana ramp. It won't happen often, but there is a chance to Splice a Ritual onto another Ritual.

In addition, I added some removal to help buy time:

Languish - the -4/-4 across the board kills most things, including the Witches. Luckily, we want the Witches to die. Damnation would be better, but it's so dam expensive $ wise.
Lightning Bolt - at {R}, this card is very versatile. Bolt the opponent's mana dorks to slow them down. Bolt an attacking creature. Bolt the opponent that is on 3 or less life. Got to love options.

Deck discussion for Cursed Witch

Awesome Dedwards! I agree that grixis was the way to take the deck. And even better, you got it all fit into Modern which is my preferred format. + 1 from me.
