Fog of Gnats is a great common. Cool to see it in here. Nightshade Stinger might be worth a spot.

If Corpse Dance is too narrow you could definitely get value out of Unearth. If you want to get weird with it try Dawn of the Dead.

Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth fixes Hall of the Bandit Lord and the shadow strategy really needs haste.

If you want it to be Modern Legal, able to play at a Modern event, then yes, replace the Bubbling Muck with 3x Dark Ritual . But if it's just to play in your play group, then it shouldn't matter. I would go with 2-3x Garys, because he is going to do WORK for you lol. I went ahead and made an adjusted list that I would recommend, but feel free to adjust as you see fit. I ended up leaving off Fog of Gnats because it's a buck each and I don't see it doing a ton for you. I actually put in Brain Maggot - don't underestimate the benefits of knowing your opponent's hand! Blightbeetle could also fit in that slot. I could see Erebos if you play against a lifegain deck regularly (might be a sideboard card, too). I added Retreat to Hagra instead of Torment of Scarabs , but your mileage may vary. It's definitely a smoother mana curve. I ended up dropping Stab Wound after I realized how many permanents you were making the opponent sacrifice. In the maybe board, I added 2 cards for card draw. If you want to put $$ down toward something, I'd recommend Phyrexian Arena . It's going to be useful in pretty much every deck running black. So at long last, here's my list: Boi! Keep Your Hands to Yourself!

libraryjoy, do you think I should add more dark rituals then? But ok, no twilight mire it is. I also do have the 4 Phyrexian Obliterator . The cards I don't have are Torment of Scarabs , Archfiend of Depravity , Eradicator Valkyrie , Vampire Nighthawk , Dauthi Voidwalker , and Epic Downfall but I can purchase these.

Out of those creatures, I think I'd go with Fog of Gnats and Blightbeetle to help with Phyrexian Obliterator.

Would I just put one of those Gray Merchant of Asphodel ? One? I don't think I would use Archetype because of the mana cost, like you said. Honestly, Revenge of Ravens would go amazing with this. Tell your friend I say thank you! I was thinking of Stab Wound , but wasn't sure how well it had fit.

I was also thinking of adding possibly Erebos, God of the Dead .

Bubbling Muck is from the Urza's Saga expansion and therefore not Modern Legal. I don't feel like Cruel Reality is that great here because of the high mana value. Twilight Mire is not a good choice, because in order to get the you have to pay , or in this case 1 black, or 1 swamp. You can also get the same thing with swamp, swamp. When you say you have the good majority - does that include the 4 Phyrexian Obliterator ? Which ones don't you have?

Options for midrange cards - Wall of Bone , Burglar Rat , Brain Maggot , Blight Beetle, Dune Beetle , Fog of Gnats .

Here's a good card you may want to include: Gray Merchant of Asphodel (also called Gary). In this deck, I think it would be good. In your meta, I wonder about Archetype of Finality , although the high CMC makes it questionable. A friend was talking about this deck, and was wondering if Revenge of Ravens might be something you were interested in? Or maybe Stab Wound to make a creature less powerful and cause a constant drain?

Boza Thank you for your suggestions. Actually I don't run choking sands :P the list is outdated, sorry! I run 2 cuombajj witches for now, but I'm thinking about changing that. Maybe play some Dash Hopes? Or some graveyard hate? I don't know.

I HIGHLY disagree about Fog of Gnats. This card is SO underrated, and won me SO much games, I would never just take it out. It's a fantastic hard to deal with blocker. Great against Delver, great against aggro, great against opposing control as well (and their threat like Gurmag). Also has flying, allowing for better control over monarch. 2 devotion is just a cherry on the top. Incredible card, 10/10 would've bought again.

There is a card actually named Darkness. And Xantid Swarm and Fog of Gnats seems like locusts to me, but there is a card named Locust Swarm too anyways. Fun deck idea I like weird themes.

Have you considered Cateran Persuader and Rampart Crawler? Could be a good way to increase devotion. Heck a whole mercenary theme with Rathi Intimidator might be good. Also Fog of Gnats seems decent.

I just realized, I might be able to regenerate Fog of Gnats like a billion times. Like as s much as I have . This might make the token option for Carrion Feeder WAY nicer.
