Hi to everyone: I´m playing a random deck but so funny. Its a Agro Control Deck near to suicude black. I,m Playing a lot of 1 slot cards, but with multiple/complementary effects.
1 Black lotus 1 Mox jet 1 Mox emerald 4 Bayou 3 Bloodstained Mire 4 Polluted Delta 1 Strip Mine 3 Swamp 4 Wasteland
4 Dark Confidant 4 Tarmogoyf 4 Duress 3 Thoughtseize 3 himnto tourach 4 Null rod 4 Dark ritual 1 vampiric 1 demonic
1 Bitterblossom 1 Phyrexian negator 1 Tombstalker 1 Thornweald Archer 1 Yixlid Jailer 1 Diabolic edict 1 deglamer 1 Shadow of Doubt 1 extirpate 1 Sinkhole
SIDEBOARD 1 Oxidice 1 Deglamer 1 Seal of primordium 1 Crosan Grip 1 diabolic edict 1 Faerie macabre 1 Extirpate 1 Yixlid Jailer 1 planar void 1 Umezawa´s Jitte 1 Smother 1 Darkblast 1 Choke 1 Phirexian Negator 1 Thornwear archer
Look for these reasonement Deglamer: Againt Stax, mana base, Vault-key, some Tinker Robots. Shadow of Doubt: Against tutors, manabase(fetchlands), tinker, Tezz. Extirpate:Against mana base(fetchlands and destroyed lands) against dredge, stax, yawmoths will, and cards like Fow, drains, oponent Goyf... Sinkhole: Against stax, bazars and work well with null rod.
As you see one copy of these cards is not usually being a dead card in our diferent mach ups, but 4 deglamer, 4extirpate, 4diabolic edict... could make the second card in a dead card.
The sideboard Works to add second copies of these cards with multy effect. Then with 2 copies of two multieffect cards plus 2 tutors, we have a lot of responses in all our mach ups.
What are the cards you think will be out of the deck. and what cards (or copies) you think I must add???

Most of you tutor targets aren't worth tutoring for. I'd like to see yawgmoth's will there and possibly a singleton crucible of worlds for the occasional opportunity to strip-lock your opponent, but you're better off choosing the creatures and disruption that you would like to draw into naturally, considering your expected match-ups. Remember that you've currently just got 2 tutors and using valuable mana and, in vampiric's case, cards while opening yourself up to all kinds of disruption just to curve out is very bad in a deck that wants to be the aggressor in most matches.
One tombstalker makes sense IMO, since the first you see tend to be the best. One jailer isn't bad either, since it actually is strong disruption while beating down till the opponent finds darkblast. Deglamer and extirpate are not very strong tutor targets and belong in the sideboard, but I wouldn't really fault you for playing them as one-ofs main, since they will steal games from time to time. I don't understand why you choose deglamer over something like seal of primordium though. Deglamer actively keeps goyf from growing.
The rest of your one-ofs are worse: You'll know if you want an edge over creature-decks (bitterblossom) or creatureless decks (negator) and should run multiples accordingly. Thornweald archer should just be a second edict. Shadow of doubt is useless in a deck that's as bad as Sui at playing reactive. Sinkhole is unefficient when not part of a more dedicated mana-denial strategy and I have a hard time visualizing when you would be helped by tutoring for it.
You can make tougher, but better choices for your sideboard too. Running a total of 4 (or more) edicts between main and side, aknowledging that a resolved tinker or oath must be dealt with seems infinately better than dilluting your defense with cards only marginally better against aggro, like smother. You don't want to be boarding in dorks like negator and archer. Find out as much as you can about expected decks and give yourself a decent chance of trumping their cards or strategy games 2 and 3. If you have nothing to go on, either forget about ichorid or make sure that you have some 8 total pieces of ichorid hate. Faerie macabre is good in non-black decks, but not when leyline and jailer are so readily available. One real reson for running a few macabres would be demonic consultation, since that would give you a quick, tutorable answer to graveyard strategies. Extirpate also becomes better with consultation.
About deglamer: If you chose it for the maindeck because you are expecting welders, consider running 4 bitterblossom main in stead of your one-of creatures and 2-3 gate to phyrexia in the board. That would also put cabal therapy on the map. 3 duress, 2 thoughtseize, 2 therapy over what you've got now, to balance their respective downsides?

This list looks faster/more consistent.
I guess I was unclear about the tutoring. I don't recommend against running tutors, rather making sure that you don't have to tutor for your base cards, that you should draw into naturally (Negator and Tombstalker in this case).
Cards that can break the game wide open, put are less consistantly useful, like jailer or extirpate are playable as one-ofs in the main as long as you can tutor for them. Broken, restricted cards, like will (which should be in a deck with 4 rituals) are good targets too, as are 4-ofs that are strong enough to spend extra mana to find, like null rod against tezz.
By all means, if you've got demonic, vampiric and consultation, they should be in the deck (possibly replacing an extirpate, a jailer and a negator. The rationale being: one maindeck ichorid hoser could be enough and 8 big creatures will provide you with atleast 2 in most games).
