The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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

This is my standard black vampire deck.
It went 3-2 usually before the rotation so now I want to test out this version.
Suggestions are welcome

Deck discussion for Standard black vamps (suggestions?)

I would absolutely go B/R for vampire. Pillars, rakdos's return, searing spear, nobles, captains, dreadbores.

Reasons being, you need to drop the mana curve, your expensive right now, nobles will help with that. Captains make vampires extreme potent adding first strike and extra power.

Bonfire, mizzium mortars, just about anything other than mutilate would be good, with solid black your likely to wipe yourself out also, and if your playing control with white say hello to terminus also, your putthing yourself down.

Instead of Murder you could do dreadbore, it's a sorcery but it kills planeswalkers and is cheaper, murder is too damn expensive mana wise to keep untapped when your trying to play creatures to keep up pressure. Also planeswalkers are a huge threat in current standard.

Necropolis Regent is also just too mana heavy, she is good but there are much better creatures she only serves as a win more.

Sorry to completely rebuild your deck like this but that is my strong feelings, I just don't think mono black has the right answers right now.

If you really don't want to go B/R at least replace the mutilates with tragic slip or something like that, also drop the Necropolis for other creatures, probably bloodline and something else, bloodline is a really helpful piece, if you come against Thundermaw it is about the only thing you have to help you not take 5, cause you could keep a bloodline untapped, pass turn after they play it tap generating a flyer which wasn't hit by it's abilities that can then block, if you can then flip a keeper and have a nocturnus out it could also kill the dragon which could be fun, and you'll probably win next turn. (seriously though red with captains, nobles and dreadbores is really gonna help especially a captain and a nighthawk, first strike deathtouch... =D )

I would do Black red vamps but its so risky with nocturnus number 1.
Number 2 my friend has a B/R vamp deck with all the things you said above minus mortars and bonfire and I beat her like nothing. Murder usually works out for me for whatever reason although I do love dread bore. Number 3 I'm just broke and I have evolved my vamps so I have most of the cards. I would get bonfires but they're like 35$ a pop and I can't rack up enough store credit atm lol.
Thank you though for the suggestion and the long comment.
I do want to make B/R vamps but maybe without nocturnus

1 more thing lol
Mutilate + blood artist ends up being a win condition a lot
So I usually don't mind wiping the whole field but mortars and bonfires are good dont get me wrong
