Deck Description

Every creature allows for or takes advantage of some kind of discard potential --- Rotting Rats twice each --- as does every non-creature spell. Let us count the ways to win.

Plop down (1) Quest for the Nihil Stone, then a rat or sliver or two. Maybe you prefer the ever-classic (2) Megrim or its popular improvement (3) Liliana's Caress. Either way, once (4) The Rack and a creature or two get out there, the game is yours.

Notable Cards: The instant-speed Funeral Charm is not only useful as a mono-black weenie creature removal but also as the discard-once-your-opponent-draws spell we want. Since Mirrodin left the public consciousness, Wrench Mind is also a fine, fine card for our purposes, a modern-day Hymn to Tourach.

What if the opponent has no cards? No problem. No fewer than 14 of the 60 cards are here to help. Wistful Thinking, Recoil, Lore Broker and most notably Urza's Guilt all require at least one player to draw and then discard without retaining or choosing a card.

Best yet, this deck is on the cheap, easily affordable, and even more so if you already own Quest for the Nihil Stone, Urza's Guilt or The Rack, the three most expensive cards here as of this writing. I purposefully ignore cards costing more than the average booster pack, thank-you-very-much Hymn to Tourach.
