hey there,
Suicide has had its best time. With an artifact block coming Mono Suicide seems to lose its power. Suicide has always had a bi problem with Aggro or any Artifact based deck.
Its nothing New to take red into Suicide. Blood Moon can make you win some game's, Monkey is a bit of a Bomb too and red had what it takes to take out more Artifacts. With this hate, we can build a deck that will solve the biggest weakness of Suicide.
Still, Bloody Suicide Really sucked against aggro. With Shade's coming you had a weapon to fight back, to bad most aggro decks run red. Bolt's, Incinerate's and Fanatic's are really nice to clean up you Shade. Suicde can clean the bord too, we can use Masticore (high cost), Contagoin, Smother, Diabolic Edict and stuff like that, but all of there cards are pretty useless in any other matchup then Agrro (or to slow, note Masticore).
Bolts are already better then most of these cards, but still it is only 3 dmg one time. So we need contuinues Damage to keep our as alive. We can find that in actually 2 cards. -> Grim Lavamancer and Cursed Scroll. Grim is obviously a better choice here, cheaper And it is a critter, costs 1 mana so you will have a new 1st turn drop 2.. sounds great to me, and ques what, it works.

Well for the most part I knew what to do, but this deck needs a small fixation.
We got an empty Slot, I used to play a random Cabal Therapy there. This deck runs only 4 Duress and 4 Hymns as hand disruption. Other Suicide Toys around with Hyppie's and even more Therapy's. this deck needs 2-3 slots foor hand disrupting. We can Say Hypnotic Specter, but the mana-curve says no. 3 Moons already took it up, with 3 Negators, a Necro and Will. we already have 8.x 3cc and that's enough. We got the Critters for 2 Theraphy's or maybe Chains of Mephistopheles will be a great hit.
Shade's became un-nessesary. They want mana, Monkey wants mana, Grim wants mana and Wretch want mana. you want to play some spells too so this became overkill. With a Moon on board, you wont have more then 2-3 Black anyway. I decided to use Flesh Reaver in it's place, it can stomp like a Shade and it's mana cost is great.
The mana base, it looks pretty solig to me, there is alot of fetch to take enough red mana out, I'm only wondering if maybe a swamp or petal should be replace for a Mox Ruby.
Null Rod, it is still a great card, can the monkey's do all the work or would 2 rod's still be a great choice?? we might cut them for 1 Monkey and Therapy (or whatever)
Any-one feels like thinking with me, We can Discuss it's sideboard later.
Go Suicide, but Survive
