Suicide Black

[Anonymous]

This is my aggro-tuned Sui Black deck (or Black Butterknives, whatever you want to call it).  It's like the aggro-enviroment version of Legend Black in the primer, with some differences.

CREATURES: (16)
4 Nantuko Shade
4 Hypnotic Specter
4 Phyrexian War Beast
4 Masticore

DISRUPTION: (14)
4 Duress
4 Hymn to Tourach
4 Sinkhole
3 Powder Keg

RESTRICTED: (2)
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Yawgmoth’s Will

MANA: (28)
4 Dark Ritual
1 Sol Ring
1 Strip Mine
4 Wasteland
17 Swamp

SIDEBOARD: (15)
4 Planar Void
4 Phyrexian Negator
2 Contagion
2 Dystopia
3 Spinning Darkness

My metagame is mostly aggro, with the few control decks that are existant always making the top 4. I have justifications on a lot of my choices. I use 3 MD Kegs, and though it may seem overkill, I almost put in a forth. Negators SB for those few control decks (taking out Masticore). I wouldn't take out War Beast, as it dodges The Abyss (which I know at least 1 person in my area owns) and Masticores are the least helpful against control anyway. I know 2 decks that will be at the next tourny that'll be a large threat, Oath and Parfait. Planar Void is for them (taking out War Beast). Spinning Darkness for Sligh. The rest is standard. I decided not to put in Spinning Darkness over Perish as I'll be going against more Sligh than what would be considered competetive green decks. Tell me what you think.

Is there other Suicide Black decks in your meta? If not, I think it's a safe bet to take out 2 contagion, and replace them with 1 Spinning Darkness and 1 Necropotence. Also, 4 Planar Void might be a bit much, and I'd consider making one of them another Keg.

1 Spinning Darkness is KING against Sligh. Its invaluable especially against those versions running Ball Lightning. From what I read, that sounds like your meta might have these types of Sligh due to the lack of control.

1 Necropotence is great against control. It is an utter bomb against slower decks and will win you the game if you get it to resolve.

1 Powder Keg is just another flexible weenie sweeper to bring in against Sligh. I suggested it because it sounds like a popular deck there.
