Deck Series: From the Graveyard
This is the first in a series that I will be posting here inspired by a deck called Graveyard Shuffle submitted by Ivan Taylor. The deck reminded me of a very similar deck that I had worked on but never uploaded. My version (posted here) has some good concepts, but it never fully coalesced, never found that rhythm that a good deck does, you know what I mean? I intend to take the title of this series both literally and figuratively. I'll start out literally with this graveyard re-animating deck, but move on to other decks that I have started working on, but left for dead when they didn't work out. I will then implore you to take the concepts, make a better deck, and post it in the comments here.
So, about this deck. It has some card synergy that I like. The Nettling Imps work well with the Abu Ja'fars, Sengir Vampires and the first-striking Black Knights. The card-denial compliments the land-denial, and the re-animation compliments all of the above.
What I don't like about it is its weak creature removal, it's slowness (last card added was the Black Knights, those helped a bit), and the fact that it uses too many of the usual suspects. We all know that a first turn Dark Ritual to cast a Hypnotic Spectre is deadly, time to move on and start playing some different cards.
Can anyone help this deck, make it a little less clichéd, or little faster?
