Deck Description

This is a pretty basic Mono Black Midrange deck. Controly with stompy fun. These are the cards I actually have. Eventually I will be adding Phyrexian Obliterator and Bloodghast. For now, I NEED HELP WITH THE SIDEBOARD. I'm terrible with sideboards. Aggro scares me, as it always has.

How to Play

It's pretty basic. Control until you get the mana to play your creatures (each of which is annoying in their own, special way). Raven's Crime and Syphon Life are in there to avoid being land flooded. Lashwrithe makes everything big.

Deck discussion for Current Modern Black Mid

I've been running a mono black Heartless Summoning based deck for a while now and might be able to make a few suggestions.

Firstly, Armillary Sphere seems a little slow (imo). I run Wayfarer's Bauble as my land search for one major reason: it puts the land onto the battlefield, not into your hand.
Mutilate is my personal favourite mass kill against most decks, especially aggro. The -X/-X gets around regenerate and indestructible, and being global, it gets around hexproof / shroud. A trick I often use is to equip a creature with Lashwrithe, then cast Mutilate to kill everything other than the equipped creature :p
Bile Blight and Massacre Wurm can be devastating to an aggro deck as they can get rid of multiple creatures at once. Also, Massacre Wurm's second ability triggers off Mutilate XD
Tormod's Crypt (and the like) can disrupt a number of graveyard based decks.

Some of these suggestions are better main board, but sideboard actually depends somewhat on your group's meta.
