Deck Description

Lotleth is an major outlet for damage discarding creatures to him that will be able to be brought back with relative ease. Other than the creatures to be discarded is the lord creature death baron which will provide a buff for gravecrawler and lotleth alike and make good use of them even as potentially small creatures giving recurring creature deathtouch.

Smallpox is used here for slowing an less prepared opponent to the card as it makes someone discard cards from their hand slow down there mana base and kill off creatures that are less likely to be revived. Hymn to Tourach as well as smallpox and liliana will hopefully discard an opponents hand down low keeping them reliant on topdeck only. Liliana and smallpox also have the creature killing going for them along with deathtouch zombies abrupt decay and go for the throat. despise will also help slow down creature threats.

deathrite is a good way to get back some lost mana due to smallpox, along with making use of used fetch lands, also can be used to regain some health or deal out some life damage whilst also dealing with cards that could be used to revive creatures, or to buff a tarmogoyf.

More or less this is a sort of black discard control deck with some extra kind of tricks up it's sleeves using lotleth as a damage base being a hard creature to deal with.

Ooops! Thanks for pointing that out, things I need to pay a little better attention to.

I think I'm going to replace Barren Moor with a few other lands and a few Elvish Visionary for extra discard creatures and draw if need be.

Hymm to Tourach is becoming Wrench Mind I suppose.
