aggro/ tempo/ control grixis. fun to play, almost competitive standard

rakish heir, although the three mana for a bear i see would make it a hard sell

Ah. and you can use the gaze for tokens too, just thought of that. well if you are okay with a very expensive mana base, then i think this deck is close to competitive. have you thought of using any of the red vampires? theres that one that makes it so all of your vampires evolve when they deal damage to a player

oh wait what about hindervines? you only really need one copy to put the fear of god into your opponent

NOICE. my only suggestion is to put in undying. Unless you're just being prepared for when the block rotates.

no gather the townsfolk? how about brave the elements?

close to competitive standard:

the aristocrats really got a power boost from xathrid necromancers

are you so attached to domri you're adding green? i get it, i just think the deck might be a little better if you can sever your attachment to green. victim of night? doom blade? you don't need the golgari removal you're adding. even the board wipe can be easily replaced with mutilate. the thing that makes up for it in my mind is the wolf run, but im not even sure you need that with the amount of evasion you've got going. if i were you, i might try cutting out green and adding sign in blood and mutilate

no offense meant though, i like the deck

indeed. in casual, i would definitely play that.

i agree with the instant vs sorcery, but do you really think he's not going to have 2 vampires? i dunno man i would have at least 3 feasts. They're just so much value

i like it too. i think basilisk collar would be easier than the death pits, but you would have to pay 1 mana for each point of damage. on the other hand, it would make your deck better if you don't find the combo... maybe you could run both? and if you're willing to splash green, nightshade peddler would easily replace death pits.

i have a deck like this that fills me full of joy every time i play it. it's such a funny theme, and can be super powerful. You forgot a couple cool things, like twilight drover and forbidden orchard. http://www.mtgvault.com/kmk888/decks/illness-orchard/

FEAST OF BLOOD. four of em, they're great. also i agree with draggindealer, lowering the mana curve could be a serious improvement. although i understand the delightfulness of the flavor inherent in sorin and sorin's vengeance, they slow this deck down. i think maybe captivating vampire, guul draz vampire, and more nighthawks will help

i like the idea, but what's up with your mana curve? and i think you might like firefist striker here, mebbe nightbird's clutches

oh wow that's cool. Sorry for the incorrect information.

unfortunately, although it would be really cool, corpsejack menace doesn't double cryptborn horror or any other unleash creature's counters, because they enter the battlefield with those counters. so now your corpsejack is really only for blessings of nature. Cool deck though

yo, cool deck. diabolic intent is cool, but is it worth not being modern legal? also cool things for this deck are mortician beetle, black cat, anything like bloodthrone vampire, and, (if you want to get fancy) shirei, shizo's caretaker

oh yeah. it would, wouldn't it. sad times... i can think of ways to make it work but if i were you i wouldn't want to change the deck you have just for a single creature. so yeah, nice deck

this is cool. a very similar deck that takes pains to make your opponent's tokens already dead: http://www.mtgvault.com/kmk888/decks/illness-orchard/
I like your inclusion of alliance of arms. i think you may find that twilight drover is worth it's weight in gold

no man. He has no way to draw cards at all. Deadbridge is pure card advantage if the game stalls out for some reason. Anything that traded early, it'll be back for more. instants and sorceries too. Those two cards just give him late game potential and offer serious resilience against a supreme verdict.
