B/G infect deck (need help!)
Ok, so its been 15 years since i've played magic last and i recently got back into it when besieged came out. So all input is welcome:) And let me apologize now if I am posting in the wrong forum, so please bare with me.
Here it is:
4x livewire lash
4x Ichorclaw myr
3x vector asp
4x plague stinger
2x ichor rats
4x blight mamba
2x hand of praetors
4x preys vengeance
4x stabbing pain
3x vampire bite
4x vines of vastwood
4x virulent swipe
10x forest
10x swamp
I haven't even started working on sideboard yet because I know this deck needs help. Its fast when it draws right, but i need it to work faster and more consistently.
Thanks for the help!!

I know it's going to change the mana usage a bit but you might try taking out the Vector Asp for Plague myr my thoughts on this is that your still getting the 1/1 infect, don't have to pay to give it infect and you can tap him for a colorless mana. it could give you just the mana ramp to help, but still gives you the 1/1 defender. oh and it will also work better with Hand of the Praetors to give your opponent another poison counter late game.

My personnal experience would be the hands are kinda useless. Yup, BG infect needs to win fast, and by that i mean very very very very fast. Before turn 10. More than that and well, most likely you dont have a chance at all. You need gorundswell and inkmoth nexus. Live wire lash is useless. It needs 2to cast, 2 to eqp. and ur running on 20 lands. Most likely u will notice ur deck has mana issues. I suggest tune the land count to 24 if you think you still want the praetors and live wire. As for live wire, 1 or 2 would be sufficent. They dont do much, and if you like, you could put in some adventuring gear and terramorphic expanse. Helps you wth mana issues and an advantage if you miss pump spells.
Ichor rats are useless, take em out, and put in phy crusaders. Vector asp is bad choice, especially when you are running on 20 lands. and bg pump infect. Plague myr is good, but ur running BG pump. Thus the colourless mana is near useless. If you insist on mana acceleration though, i suggest you could try sphere of the suns, though it will no doubt slow your deck down. And yes, green pump spells are a bit more better than black ones (they add toughness as well)
Hope this helps
