The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Deck Description

The basic premise I'm going for here is to use Unsummons in conjunction with Ichor Rats, Hands of the Praetors, etc. Get Hands of the Praetors on the field, play Ichor Rats, put 2 poison counters on opponent, use Unsummon and repeat.

It's designed (hopefully) to play quick, mostly 2 drops and some other things to get the poison counters to 10 ASAP I've thrown in Distortion Strike and Vault Skyward to assist in this as well as some counters to cover my butt if things get hairy.

Criticize please!

Deck discussion for Blue/Black Infect

you have no idea how happy I am that you resisted the urge to use proliferate. it blows.

a few comments
1.) those are the exact blues spells I would use, besides maybe I would add a "twisted image," but i'm not sure about that. it would depend on what i would replace the cards I don't like in here with.
2.) i'm basically 100% sure I would not use wall of frost.
3.) do you think that, with the other large amount of other infects and the high manacost to toughness ratio, that you really need corpse cur at all?
4.) you really don't have many "buffs" at all, and though It is nice to have lots of counters, you cannot use them all the time. would it not make sense to at least add a vault skyward or so, then use your praetors or something to defend with? that way you can counter their spell that kills your monster, instead of their spell that puts a monster on the field, and you can still go over them w/ flying?

all in all, I love love LOVE this deck. I make lots of infect decks, I've run U/W, U/Blue, mono Blk, mono Grn, Blk/Grn, Blk/blu proliferate, Blk/blu control, Grn/blu proliferate, U/Grn buffs, U/W/Blu control, mono artifact, and one or two others.
I have actually run all of those, not just made them on here. actually, most of those I haven't made on here, I've just used them.

Regardless, basically. I really really like this deck, it will work well as is, though I might change around the land, and make a few minor adjustments. Overall though, I'm a huge fan. :)

Thanks for the input!

I just figured wall of frost would be a virtual fail safe as a blocker, but it IS rather high mana cost and for that I will most likely remove it. I'll look into some more buffs, perhaps vault skyward and some unblockables or damage increase. Also boomerang will have to go, which disappoints me a little :/

As far as proliferation goes, I'm thinking I might replace Corpse Cur with Thrummingbirds because they're just too helpful to pass up.

I'm glad you like it :)
