Deck Description

Muhahahahaha. No description needed, am i right?

How to Play

Its pretty easy to play. Building it is the tricky part

one thing to keep in mind is this:
you can discard shadowborn apostiles off pack rat and sacrafice them for demons, and then get ALL OF THEM BACK for 4 mana via immortal servitude.

Deck discussion for Rats/Shadowborn Apostle

I think you need some removal. In a 60 card deck you could easily go down to 16 or 18 Shadownborn. This will open you up for some removal or even some black control. Thrumming Stone is amazing in this deck if you are going to be running a lot of Shadownborns. I think you could remove the rats but that is my opinion.

I did remove the relentless rats, and made a few other changes. i do need all those apostiles so i can get to a big demon ASAP, but check out the deck now... i think you saw it while i was still working on it

You should still be running Thrumming Stone if getting all those shadowborn out is your main goal. Also the newish B/W god could be useful to you. I think it is called Athreos, God of the Passage.

Oh and cards like Grave Pact, Dictate of Erebos could be useful to you too. If you decide you want to take it to another level of some sort. Don't try to cram too much into this deck of course, I am just making suggestions on possible ways to run it.

EDIT: I found Rotlung Reanimator to be a much better option than Necro. They don't come into play tapped and they do the same thing but with clerics and not humans.

ok, i will definitely play thrumming stone, but simply because i want this to be a legal modern deck im going to stick with xathrid necromancer.
Dictate of erebos is nice, but i dont really have room.
as far as atheros, i maybe can play them, but adding white could be a bit tricky...

True, when in doubt just keep with mono-black. This will be your best bet overall I think.

If you removed relentkess rats, get rid of pack rat, and take relentless rats out of your tags
