Look ma, no hands!

Main Deck (63 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)

Sorceries (10)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

Opponent will have to discard their hand and take damage through Shrieking Affliction each turn (or through creatures anyway)

How to Play

Only a rough draft, as I'm super bored. The trick is to get your opponent to discard their hand through your creatures (Black Cat's trigger ability, Ravenous Rats' trigger ability, Drainpipe Vermin's trigger ability, Slate Street Ruffian's trigger ability) Attacking mainly using Slate Street Ruffian with the Exalted ability provided by Duty-Bound Dead and Knight of Infamy is basically a win-win. Swing for 4 damage, if opponent blocks = Discards a card. Opponent allows damage through = take a strong hit!

Any feedback/comments would be appreciated! As I'm thinking of building this in 2 weeks time.

What about Undercity Plague, Wit's End, Duress, and Mind Rot?

Yeah I did consider Undercity plague and Duress. But I didn't know what to remove. I suppose I could swap out Mental Vapors for Undercity Plague? Or is Disentomb not necessary?

It seems like a good idea, but rarely do you get out an affliction before the aggro part of the deck either wins or loses for you. It needs more stuff - if there was a megrim kind of card this could be a lot better.

Yeah I figured the aggro part would probably win me the game faster than the affliction would. Would you be able to advise further?
