I've been out of the hobby for ~9 years, and I'm just getting back into it. Some friends and I decided to ty an make $15 decks (not including basic lands). I've decided to go with what I think is a suicide black slash dark ritual deck.
I've bought a number of cards to try an brew this up. It's looking like the deck may end up being slightly more than $15, but hopefully not much more. The basic idea is to get something big with evasion out really fast (turn 1 or 2) and keep the board clean and disrupt long enough to finish the game with combat damage with Gray Mechant of Asphodel and Rite of Consumption as a last ditch effort to win.
Cards I bought:
Dark Ritual
Unearth
Blood Pet
Mogis's Marauder
Gatekeeper of Malakir
Hymn to Tourach
Geth's Verdict
Smallpox
Victim of the Night
Distress
Bile Blight
Asylum Visitor
Blood Scrivenger
Rite of Consumption
Shriekmaw
Avatar of Discord
Phyrexian Negator
Master of the Feast
Hypnotic Spector
Gray Merchant of Asphodel
Cards I'm thinking of buying:
Duress
Tragic Slip
Vampire Lacerator or Sangrophage
Theros Beyond Death Swamps
I really have no idea what I'm doing and would appreciate any and all help.
Based on what you posted i put something together as an idea, of course better cards are out there this just to throw somethings out. But if you want gray merchant as your win con he likes cards with lots of black mana symbols. You'll just have to figure out how you want to get there, you have a lot of different cards for different types of suicide decks.
