Deck Description

I've been playing around with a decklist I saw that Brian Kibler posted on SCG. It's a pretty solid decklist, though it's not as fast as I was trying to run it(it would definitely lose the race compared to R/B zombies and R/B vamps). With this deck I find it very important to stick your your big spells, causing the addition of cavern of souls(counter filled control decks seem to be a big player where I'm competing). Furthermore, after sideboard this deck has the potential win over a lot of the other popular decklist.

How to Play

I find the most important part of this deck is the sideboard:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tormod's Crypt: Great against Human Reanimator
Tree of Redemption: Good against any deck that does a lot of damage in big single hits
Deathrite Shamen: Most people believe this card is good against zombies, and it is, but I'm using this card against flash/snapcaster decks or maybe even a slow reanimator.
Thragtusk and Druid's Deliverance: Excellent against zombies or any other fast aggro
Sever the Bloodline, Abrupt Decay, and Golgari Charms: Great against Esper decks and other decks with enchantments and spirits that just seem to overwhelm you.

I know I'm missing stuff, but I'm just going over the just of the main points for having
these particular cards in my sb.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
In most cases my Sideboard changes, I think with the metagame right now
I would
-1 Tree of redemption
-1 Golgari charm
+2 Duress
-1 Thragtusk
+1 Ranger's Guile

I simply get a feeling that it might take too long for you to deal enough dmg, but I haven't really examined it that close...

Yeah, thats what I was thinking, but for the colors I was shooting for, this is pretty solid. Even though the damage doesn't hit fast enough, this deck has late game appearances, such as Garruk and l8 game scavenge. I'm considering adding 1 Grim Backwoods.
