:symb::symb::symb:Clan Affiliates:symb::symb::symb: Damnation Studios
:symb::symb::symb:Membership Guidelines:symb::symb::symb: Section 1: Membership
To become a member, you are required to submit a mono black deck list. This list can be of any format but it is to be a serious deck. (I.e. It has to be functional. I do not wish to see decks that are just black cards and Swamps mashed together, as these are a disgrace to the name [Clan Mono-Black]. Any format is welcome: Standard, Extended, Legacy, even EDH! There will always be someone here to be able to give good feedback. Section 2: Rising Through the Ranks
Once you post your deck list, members will welcome you and if your list checks out, you will become one of our Minions. Once you are a minion, you are a new member. Once you become active enough (50 posts in the clan threads in a relatively timely manner (i.e. no 50 posts over the course of a few years), you will become a Disciple, and with it you will get a nifty title (that follows the style Disciple of ~, where ~ is a black mana trait)! The Harbinger of the Swamps user group is exclusively for past Evincars, Scions, CMB tournament Champions (if your a member that is. This does not apply to members of other clans), an members who have gone Above and Beyond the Call of Duty for the Clan. Once you are a Harbinger, you are are permitted to create any title of your choosing. If you are a Disciple and you manage to become inactive for an extended, unexcused period of time and you get moved to the Thrull category, your title is forfeit and it becomes up for grabs. Should you return and become active again, your title will not be waiting for you if someone else took it. You will be forced to create a new one. Section 3: Friendship Policy
If you wish to become a friend of [Clan Mono-Black], you are only required to post. You are welcome to explain why you wish to be a friend (for example, if you are from an allied clan or if you just like black mana as a secondary color, or if your just friends with clan members here!). If you wish to to become a member after you are a friend. You will still have to follow new membership guidelines by submitting a blacklist. However, if you have already reached the magic number of 50 posts as a friend, you will automatically become a Disciple! If you were inactive or inconsistently active, you will still be required to submit 50 posts in a relatively timely manner. Section 4: Resignations
For those members who wish to step down from the clan for whatever reason, you are to simply state it in a post. You will then be added to our friends list. Should you chose to return as a Disciple, simply state so and the members of the clan will decide whether or not to readmit you. Section 5: Conduct
While a member, you will be expected to follow all rules of the forums. This means no advertising, no hotlinking , no spamming, no flaming, and general manners are to be used. We will also expect card tags and deck tags when you post decks. We also would like you to post in a semi-professional manner. Pretty much just follow MTGSalvation Guidelines. You are also expected to have fun around here!
7/6/10: As of now, the Behavior policy is getting stricter and will be enforced. In addition to using basic forum rules and manners, I will require that all posts have substance. No more short and pointless posts. Should behavior like this continue beyond the point of a casual warning from me or another member, I will demote you from Disciple status until you have proven that you can play with the big boys. In addition, if it continues even farther, I will report you to the mods. This is all not to be taken the wrong way, it is just a way to prove to the mods that this clan is not a problem clan and we can behave ourselves after the recent developments that occurred here.
Section 6: Exile
Should you misbehave inappropriately or disobey the forum rules, you will be asked to stop posting in this clan and will be added to the Black List. Section 7: Sister Cells
Recently, Clan Mono-Black has expanded its horizons and opened up a cell on MTG Darkness. Should you chose to join this clan from MTG Darkness or vice a versa, your status will be held. So if your a Disciple here and you so chose to join in our sister cell, you will still retain your status you hold here. Sister Hall

Yay new thread! Did you wait for the pic to put this up?
Actually yes.:tongue: I figured we had been set on the Black Sun's Zenith art and really couldnt think of any other arts from MBS I could have used that really fit.
That artwork is amazing. Gaze upon the blackened husks of those more fortunate than yourselves! See the black sun, know that your world is lost, and despair!
Something to that effect. Look forward to more from him.
Been doing some testing of Valakut ramp. Viridian Emissary and Green Sun's Zenith are amazing there, though Zenith replaces Trap (which is relegated to board). I like Slagstorm, but goddamn is Kuldotha red stupid fast. If you survive long enough to play Slagstorm, you're fine, but holy ☺☺☺☺. One game he went Mountain, Signal Pest, Memnite, Mox Opal, Kuldotha Rebirth (pitching Opal), turn two Contested War Zone, attack for 13! Yep, sure wish this was a Pyroclasm.
It's still not colorless, and has no color. That's a paradox. So either you're a Zen master or an idiot, I'll assume the Zen master for sake of argument. This card will have no paradoxes because it has a clear paradox. Deep stuff man.

I think it's fine to play 2x Pyroclasm MD as a concession to stupid aggro decks. Otherwise G1 is unwinnable if your opponent has that kind of fast start.
yay, a new thread! as the black sun dawns, Phyrexia comes to its ultimate power, and black decks get back the quintessenial villains.

Hey, I remember you! I'm glad military service didn't take away your zeal for black mana (or your life).
Actually, the only death I heard off in where I served was due to some newbie driver reversing into his officer. Save to say that the actual risk of death in the force was marginal at best, especially considered that I served in the Empire of Lee.

Not from me, though if I see anything like it played Saturday I'll let you know why it lost.
Until I get the updated format figured out and see old things have improved and what new things exist it's gonna be guesswork. Won't help that a lot of the good local players don't show up very often.
You only have one landfall guy. Not worth playing any come-into-play-fail lands. I'd play Journey to Nowhere over Squadron Hawk, cut one Hero and one Mystic for a pair of Accorder Paladins. If you do want to keep a flier in that spot, Kor Aeronaut. Looks like fun.
Guys, I want to make a MB deck for vintage (unpowered) that uses Bloodghast and Skullclamp as a draw engine. Some of you may remember my earlier attempts; however, I don't want to bring them up, because I want to start from scratch. So really, all we have to go on is this:
4 Bloodghast
1-4 Skullclamp
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Vampiric Tutor
1 Necropotence
4 Dark Ritual
Help?
if you don't care about your permanents, put in a lot of cards that give you tokens and oath of lim-dul. if you have a tough time discarding stuff, you could try library of leng or spellbook. decree of pain would let you draw, and could gets rid of a lot of pesky creatures as well.

bakofried: What's the win-con you want for the deck? I think you should look at that as a starting point (and you can keep the draw engine in it obviously).
BϕYawgmoth lives forever in the hearts of the faithful, and we forever carry his vision onward to perfection:sympb:ϕB
I have conquered Fruit, Spike, and Moon!
Talking about tokens, is it possible to put together some kind of combo using Grave Pact, Abyssal Gatekeeper and some kind of sac outlet? Only that seems like it could be quite powerful. I mean, the Gatekeeper is essentially a Grave Pact that triggers only when it dies, which means that, from the Gatekeeper alone, you're killing one of your opponent's dudes. Add the Grave Pact and the other dude, and you've got a 3-for-2 right there. Chain a bunch of Gatekeepers together, and it's even more powerful.
It's a powerful effect in the abstract but the format has to taken into consideration. Figure, if your opponent has creatures in play and it's type 1 odds are it's a Lodestone Golem and you haven't resolved but a single spell this game, or it's 20+ 3/3 hasted zombie tokens and you're dead.
Also, Innocent Blood gets played way before Abyssal Gatekeeper. Immediacy matters.

Off the top of my head, having no experience with vintage at all... Buried Alive, Ashen Ghoul, Dark Confidant, Chalice of the Void, Tombstalker (can 'fix' Ashen Ghoul positions, may exclude Dark Confidant), Cabal Therapy, Stinkweed Imp, Pox/Smallpox, Thorn of Amethyst. Of course the usual Duress/Hymn to Tourach.
I have conquered Fruit, Spike, and Moon!
Since you are MB; I'm thinking you can either use Leyline of the Void + Helm of Obedience OR Voltaic Key + Time Vault OR Bridge From Below + your draw engine.
Good luck! ;p
