Description
{"ops":[{"insert":"A mono-black removal-and-recursion deck led by Toshiro Umezawa, killing creatures with a huge suite of instants, then recasting them from the graveyard while Massacre Wurm, Meathook Massacre, and Black Sun’s Zenith clean up the board. It runs three Game Changers (Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, and Orcish Bowmasters) and an intentional two-card combo, Mephidross Vampire plus Walking Ballista, which locks out opposing creatures but can’t kill the table by itself. Expect grindy interaction and reanimated threats, with the combo available occasionally.\n"}]}
