I want to make a deck like this for 1 v 1 since most my other decks are better for group games. Be as harsh as you need to any criticism is welcome. My main concern is is 12 creatures enough? I've seen others like this and that was the max number it seemed but does that not make the deck vulnerable to removal since not many creatures would be out at a time? Any side board suggestions? I play with friends only so the cards don't have to be tournament legal but I don't want to spend a ton. Thanks for any help!
Make them discard vital cards and use surgical extraction on ones you never want to see again. The rest causes them to constantly sacrifice. Hit them with obliterater (can b cast turn 1 with dark ritual and lotus petal) and the abyssal persecutor to kill them sacrifice the persecutor to win.

I would splice in blue or run the mono black counterspell for more control.It seems as if you have all that you need to run hand disruption but it almost seems too much.I would also run 2 doom blade and 2 victim of night over murder, its faster which is nice plus with victim you can still get black creatures and doom blade takes care of everything else, paired with geth it makes for a very aggresive way to attack the opponents creatures. I can also see you running more artifacts like chrome mox for mana acceleration for something like diabolic tutor, some artifact ramp combined with dark rit will allow you to access consuming vapors and obliterator turn 1, which is nothing to laugh at.Lilianna is also a good option. The more you can keep control up and move faster than your opponent the better, you have a good base but it's flooded with too much of the same thing to the point it almost, at least to me, looks inflexible. Also innocent blood is another good one since you are creature light.Another fun combination you could run is arena with obliterator, force fights and have it act like a smokestack on a stick for you.

Thanks, ill definately add 4 lotus petal (since I can't afford chrome mox) for a turn one obliterator or something like it instead of 4 despise. Arenas are also a neat addition along with diabolic tutor to make it more flexible. This is my first control deck so is this more right?
You do know that as long as Abyssal Persecutor is out. You CANT win the game. and your oppenents CANT LOSE. Your only way to kill it is with Consuming Vapors. Just checking if you read that right there are other creatures with that switched around.You cant lose and your oppenents cant win Stall deck.http://www.mtgvault.com/mmmjkx2/decks/stall-and-search-modern/My 1st Ever Deck; about sacraficing your own creatures.

Yes but he's in there as a heavy hitter early on, then when I'm ready I sacrifice him and win. I'm busy right now but will look at those when I can!
I probably can be more competitive in Modern, for that just take out the Dark Rituals, you can add Crypt Ghast or Magus of the Coffers or Liliana of the Dark Realms to help you get mana and finish with (all swamps have: {T} 4 Black Mana Emblem)
