Well normally usually I wouldnt need help but the area im playing in is weird, they allow some restricted cards to be played but not others. Basically they dont mind lotus petal, mox diamond, chrome mox etc. Just not the power 9 or obviously broken combo cards. Since I like black I figure I would make a black deck. Im kinda undecided between nether void or necro. I can make nether easy but For some reason necropotence looks attractive. problem is im not sure which modern cards would go in it. any ideas?

"obviously broken cards"

and they allow necro? im quite confused. do you have a bit more information about what exactly is legal and not? sounded a bit like the new 1.5 format until you mentioned necro.

Yeah I know necro is broken but aslong as they die with creature or covential means it doesnt matter. No ungodly fast combo deck certaintly. The new 1.5 is pretty close, cept I can use necro and consults. Im just wondering what A modern mono black necro deck would be with all of these new sets.

4x Hypnotic specter
4x Phyrexian negator
4x duress
4x hymn to tourach
4x unmask
3x sinkhole
4x dark ritual
3x necropotence
4x demonic consultation
2x powder keg
1x demonic tutor
1x yawgmoths will

15xswamp
4x wasteland
3x lotus petal

I think its pretty solid. Im not quite sure about unmask but cabal therapy seems to be kinda hit and miss. There might be a better replacement for lotus petal but it looks good too.

You could always try Pox! :lol:

It basically is the suicide black skeleton but with more control elements and more synergy with pox.

Common cards in the deck are:
Pox
Nether spirit
Chimeric Idol
Cursed scroll
some artifact mana
Crucible of the Worlds
Sinkhole
sui ect.

If you stick with sui then I remember chalice black builds being discussed way back when. Try a search in the archive forums for that.

For Nether Void I do believe the primer is still posted here. Probably in the archived section. Not much innovation has been done on the deck for a while now.
