Looking for black enchantments with large drawbacks.

Deck Help forum

Mono Black can't typically remove its own enchantments, so I had the idea to create a God-Eternal Bontu deck with the idea of using her to sacrifice those enchantments.

I'm looking for enchantments (or other permanents) with only black or colourless colour identity, that have a nice pay-off, but can become serious problems if left on the battlefield. Along the line of:

But not along the lines of Lich and that stuff that's good to donate but not to sacrifice.

Thanks a bunch in advance.

Oh, right. That's not a bad idea.

I'm still looking for cards more about giving temporary benefits to the caster, but general stax pieces that I ca get rid of myself aren't a bad suggestion. Thanks!

I think Midnight Oil could work here? You could also politic and steal creatures permanently with Endless Whispers. Another interesting creature in this deck could be Greater Harvester; you get a little Bontu every upkeep.

The Nefarious Lich has that one trigger that makes me lose if I sacrifice it, so doesn't really work with what I'm going for.

Otherwise, thanks very much you two. I'll see what I can pull together with this, gonna carefully try to veer off making a proper stax build though.
