This is a Mono Black Rats deck. It's just based on Marrow-Gnawer's ability (gives Fear to other Rats and creates Rat tokens) and directly attack the opponent.

Pretty solid rat deck. I would sideboard Mutilates just in case things get out of hand. Typhoid Rat - deathtouch - is too good of a one drop not to include. Maybe sideboard Throat-Slitter to give you a faster deck. The infect rats should only be used in an all infect deck. Splitting infect and life loss damage only prolongs the game. Check out my Standard Rat deck.

I was thinking about Mutilates and Typhoid Rats, but I prefer not using them for now. Mutilates aren't really useful if I have Doom Blade and Go for the Throat; Typhoid Rats could be great at 1st turn, but then they'll only be used by Marrow-Gnawer to create tokens if I don't find Ravenous Rats. The Throat Slitter, instead, is just useful because it has Ninjutsu and destructs creatures. I took the infect rats because a friend of mine has a recover deck and that's the only way I can kill him, so they are in sideboard.
Graveyard hate takes care of Recover - Relic of Progenitus, Tormod's Crypt, Leyline of the Void. Throat Slitter is a decent card, but I believe speed would help your deck more with Pack Rats.
Thanks, I didn't know Leyline of the Void; I really like this card. However I was talking about "points recovery", not the recovery of the creatures from the graveyard. Sorry, his deck brings him to hundreds of life points (and he has also Elixir of Immortality), so infection counters are the only way to kill him. Sorry again but I'm Italian, sometimes literally translating Italian to English isn't a good idea.So what do I have to change in this deck? I'm seriously thinking about letting 4 Typhoid Rats in, so I can use them to substitute the 8 infect rats (which I'll use only against that friend). So I think I could do this:- 4 Ichor Rats- 4 Septic Rats- 1 Patron of the Nezumi= 2 Chittering Rats OR 2 Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni (move to sideboard)= 3 Throat Slitter (move to sideboard)+ 4 Typhoid Rats (in deck)+ 1 Nezumi Graverobber (in deck)+ 4 Drainpipe Vermin (in sideboard)Which one would be better to move to sideboard: Chittering Rats or Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni?
I would move Ink Eyes even though you are playing Dark Rituals. You are only playing 20 lands so Ink Eyes will come out much latter than Chittering Rats making Pack Rat less effective. You might want to put a Diabolic Tutor in your deck (or any more expensive black tutor) to pull your rat of choice. False Cure and Null Rod are cards which can help you against life gain decks and Elixir of immortality.
Thank you for having helped me out. I wouldn't like to use Diabolic Tutor because I think I could draw enough useful cards thanks to the Gravestorms. I'll try the deck. If I have problems I'll remove Drainpipe Vermin to let some tutor in.
