So I have been going back and forth about what to play this season and I think I have decided on discard control.  So here is what I put together...

Main

  • 4 drainpipe vermin    
  • 4 black cat    
  • 3 ravenous rats     
  • 4 bloodflow connoisseur      
  • 2 desecration demon     
  • 3 shrieking affliction     
  • 3 underworld connections
  • 3  altars reap     
  • 3 vile rebirth     
  • 3 murder    
  • 4 undying evil
  • 3 duress
  • 2 mind rot
  • 20 Swamps
Sideboard

  • 3 Barter in blood
  • 3 Killing Wave
  • 1 desecration demon
  • 8 ?
Playing proxy has shown it working pretty well so far.  But if anyone has any ideas on how to improve this or what to sideboard, I would like to hear them

My top two suggestions are mostly metagame: Tragic Slip for indestructibility and Wit's End for heavy draw.

In other news, Wit's End has a typo in the flavor text.

Perhaps mutilate? Sideboarded of course

You have enough of the rats to maybe make pack rat usuable? sure you have to discard cards, but its not a bad finisher, since it can get pretty big, and is pretty inexpensive.

Mutilate great idea thanks jester. Tragic slip is too, with my self saccing i will usually hit the morbid. Now what to replace?
Wits end is good but out of my curve. By 7 mana i should have there hand gone anyway. Though with the draw comment i cant help think your thinking something else. Isnt there a card that lets you draw what was discarded besides geths grimore
Pack rats is a possibility, but with the amount i will be saccing to get the instant discard will lower the potential power, not to mention i would have to give up the demon for space, which nelps with the control aspects
Any other ideas
