Hey all,

I'd like to start on my next deck, but I'm at a loss for my knowledge of many cards which would fit the theme. I'm asking everyone for a bit of help. I'd like to keep it at least modern, but if it turns out awesome, I'll want to try and find a way to make it standard to play it at a FNM.

Here is the request.

The deck will not necessarily be tribal so I would like a list of self mutilating mutual destruction cards (affecting both you and your opponent) or cards which pose an extreme risk playing them like Treacherous Pit-Dweller.

I played a draft this weekend and used this card and a few other demons/devils/vamps partnered with some burn. It was really fun to play, but being a draft, it was no where near what it could be.

I started the draft going mono red (quick creature + burn). After facing a green + blue deck, I actually took my all black sideboard and subbed it in with awesome results using Dark Impostor for removal and Bone Splinters. My deck had a hard time dealing with first strike creatures and flying (I believe can be fixed).

I love abilities on creatures that cause mayhem removal and are hard to deal with. Thanks in advance and I'll post the deck when I finish it. Also, if you know of cards that work well with a card you post to prevent the damage done to you, feel feel to add that with a comment of the combo. I know this would be a long list so leave out legacy.

Thanks!
