a while a go i made an MBC deck that did really well at my FMN. at that time there was plenty of UW control, Jund, Naya and what ever else was play at that time...Goblins, i beat a goblins deck. and now with the release of MBS on the horizon, I, like many other black players out there, am trying to get MBC to work again. the thing is that as of right now, i am a better player that i was last year. i am able to make better decks on my own, i follow the coverage of event and whats being played. i find the weaknesses and i study the fucking format... nobody does this that net decks. anyways, what i see now is that MBC is might be possible so i am going to take a stab at it like i do with every new set that comes out. so if you actually reading this, then i am going to bring you along the process in which i will be building my MBC deck. right now, Step 1 :D, i am going to lay out some of the cards that i feel are good! and will actually contribute to the deck itself :}
also i want to point out to people that dont play MBC builds or people that do play MBC builds and think its the best deck ever! and think that the deck has few weaknesses when in reality it has many.the main reason that MBC hasnt been good for a really long time is becuase of 3 things!
thing1
MBC has no global sweeper. no mutilate, no decree of pain, forced march, nothing! whats happend in the last 2 years is that cards like infest had been reprinted. we got a little hope in Cosume the Meek, a card i fucking love and now we get something i hope to scratch off the lists that MBC doesnt have that needs to be competative and thats BLACK SUN ZENITH
this card is positioned well to do some damage. vampires, elves and Avenger tokens Beware... i am sure this card deals more damage to lots of other things but i wanna do this quickly lol
thing2!
black has barely any kind of card drawing . sure Sign in blood and dark tutalege but...thats about it. crystal ball is a great option but your investing too much into it and MBC wants things to happen now and disrupt its opponent as soon as possible and as effectively as possible. unfortunately there isnt much you can to to help black except add blue. there isnt a necropotence :[ or a phyrexian arena :[
thing3!
there isnt a card that throws MBC ahead like there is for other color decks. we dont have a jace or an oracle of mul daya or a Koth or an Elspeth or something like that. MBC is lacking a card that just give a huge distinctive advantage over an opponent. Mind sludge comes to mind but by that point counter magic is up or your facing a Primeval titan or something. i am hoping that there is something that comes out of the rest of the set so that i can touch more on this subject :]
the list is just a list right now. like rightnow as i am writing this i am going to be putting this deck together in my head and adding numbers and blah blah blah.
go for the thoart
gruesome encore
black sun zenith
bloodwitch
gatekeeper
sign in bloog
nighthawk
wurmcoil
IoK
Duress
Doom Blade
Consume the Meek
Mind Sludge
Nantuko Shade
Memoricide
Sadistic Sacreament
Contaminated ground
black knight
Blood Husk ritualist
corrupt
deathmark
Diabolic tutor
skinrender
Hexmage
Grasp
leyline of the void
crusader
this list only included 1 artifact in wurmcoil engine. the list isnt formed yet and i have ideas floating around. right now its got what flores calls "vampires greatest hits" in hexmage, bloodwhich, gatekeeper,disruption and kill spells.
i didnt mention any infect cards becuase i dont feel like th MBC will actually be an infect deck, thats something completely different.
