MtG Arena — Mono Black Cycling — Deck Tech & Gameplay
Channel: T1GlistenerElf
Date: 2020-12-06

Looking for a mostly budget deck (monocolored with a lot of commons and uncommons) that's really fun to play? Then Cycling might be the mechanic for you, and Mono Black gives us win-cons like Vile Manifestation, Horror of the Broken Lands, and Archfiend of Ifnir. After making changes a few games in, I was pretty happy with its record, given how affordable it is.

Here's the decklist after I made the correction to remove Void Beckoner:
Artifact (1)
1 Abandoned Sarcophagus
Creatures (11)
1 Archfiend of Ifnir
1 Hollow One
4 Horror of the Broken Lands
4 Vile Manifestation
1 Woe Strider
Enchantments (3)
3 Mogis's Favor
Instants (10)
2 Cling to Dust
4 Easy Prey
4 Suffocating Fumes
Sorceries (14)
1 Bloodchief's Thirst
4 Memory Leak
1 Thoughtseize
4 Unburden
4 Wander in Death
Lands (21)
4 Barren Moor
1 Castle Lochtwain
4 Desert of the Glorified
10 Swamp
2 Witch's Cottage

If you have any suggestions for the deck, then please let me know. I'm more than open to recommendations.
